Maria Leach is a Senior Mortgage Consultant for First United Bank. She is a graduate of the University of Texas at Arlington with a long background in real estate—having served on a top producing team for six years before moving to the mortgage industry. Her focus and commitment to her clients consistently keep her as one of the top producing loan officers for First United Bank.

She has won numerous awards from her first year in mortgage in 2004 — where she won Outstanding Loan Officer —to winning the coveted Scotsman Guide's Top 1% of Mortgage Professionals in America and Top 1% of Women Mortgage Professionals in America in 2020 and 2021. She is consistently honored with First United Bank’s highest award of “Chairman’s Circle", and has been the recipient of Texas Monthly’s Five Star Award for 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018, 2019, 2020, and 2021 and one of D Magazine's “Best Mortgage Professionals” in 2016, 2017, 2018, 2019 and 2020. She continues to remain a leader in her industry.

Maria has been married to Ed for 21 years and has a son Tristan (18), currently a Senior at Lakehill Preparatory School. He will be attending Texas State University in the fall. She has two stepsons: Derrick, serving in the U.S. Airforce in Germany; Dustin, living in Dallas; her stepdaughter, Shelby, an artist in San Marcos; three granddaughters and a grandson recently born in Germany. When Maria is not helping clients with their mortgage needs, she and Tristan enjoy volunteering together and especially spending time with family on the boat and traveling. She published her first children’s story “George Can and You Can Too,” in 2015, based on her experiences volunteering at Jonathan’s Place.

Maria and her team are very responsive and thorough, not to mention friendly and kind. They will never be too busy for you or your friends and family.
