Austin Bergstrom

As part of the LendScout team by American Security Mortgage, I’m passionate about turning daydreams into dream homes! I genuinely enjoy getting to know my clients and guiding them and their families through the exciting journey of homeownership—whether it’s their very first home or a new investment property.

As a kid, I dreamed of playing college basketball at Duke. By the time I reached 8th grade, I quickly realized that dream might not be in the cards!

When people come to my town, I recommend they visit the U.S. National Whitewater Center for outdoor adventures, and trying out some of the amazing local restaurants like Optimist Hall or Haberdish. If you’re into sports, catching a Panthers or Hornets game is a must, and for something more laid-back, a stroll through Freedom Park or the Daniel Stowe Botanical Garden is always a great choice.

When I’m not being a loan officer, I love staying active by running and weightlifting, spending quality time with friends and family, and exploring new places around Charlotte. Whether it’s discovering a great local restaurant or enjoying the outdoors, I’m always up for something fun and engaging! I’ll also preemptively add playing with my newborn to this list, as I’ll have my first child in early 2025.
