About Krishen

Krishen began his mortgage career in operations, assisting senior staff and top-producing mortgage bankers. His acumen and diligence hastened a promotion to processor, where he continued to distinguish himself. Elevated to senior processor in 2016, Krishen consistently earned top producer of the department, closing record volume and garnering 5-star customer ratings. These ratings and his talent for customer-centric solutions inevitably propelled Krishen into the sales domain of mortgage banking.

Armed with an uncommon operations background, Krishen possesses a unique perspective to serve his clients. In his rookie sales year, Krishen earned the coveted Mortgage Banker’s Gold award, which recognizes production, quality, continuing education and participation in the MBAG political action committee.

“I closed on my new house in Temple, GA on March 31st, 2026, my dream of home ownership would not have been possible if it was not for Krishen Shah and his team of professional, of Highland Mortgage, who ensured that every 'I' was dotted and every 'T' was crossed which caused my closing to go off without a hitch.

“I have worked with Krishen Shah from Highland Mortgage twice in the past 3 years. He has always helped me lock in a much better rate than other lenders, and is super quick to respond every time I had a question (which was often!). In my recent purchase, what really stood out was how smooth and fast the whole process was. Krishen and his team moved quickly, stayed on top of everything, and got us to the closing table in record time. I always felt like I was in good hands. If you're looking for someone who knows their stuff, communicates clearly, and actually gets things done fast—Krishen is your guy. Highly recommend!”

“I can’t believe it’s been this long and I haven’t left a review yet! As an agent, I just closed my 4th deal with Krishen Shah and can confidently say I am so grateful to have found him to help with my clients! His communication is a 10/10, he is extremely knowledgeable and careful when explaining anything to first time buyers (something that is very important to me), and overall just extremely pleasant to work with from beginning to end. The detailed spreadsheet and introduction video he provides for the clients along with their initial approval is absolutely above and beyond and makes the biggest difference for them in understanding their approval and feeling looped in on the process. I seriously couldn’t be happier and will be using Krishen as long as he’s in business!”

“I have never actually been to this building but I have had numerous contacts with Krishen Shah and all were pleasant and beneficial.. Well over a month ago my wife and I applied for a mortgage with his firm, Highland Mortgage, Atlanta, and that set off a perfect storm of communications that eventually led to success in what was a complicated set of circumstances. Throughout the process Krishen was available, receptive, thorough, informative and in a few instances calming. Looking back over the years which included the purchase of 12 or more homes, this was one of the more pleasurable mortgage encounters we have ever experienced. Krishen topped off the process by showing up at our closing this past Friday. Finally, we had a face-to-face conversation and were very pleased to meet the person behind all of the phone conversations and all of the correspondence we had waded through with him. We believe our closing went very smoothly because of his presence and accomplishments. In summation, Krishen could not have been more professional and pleasant to deal with. We would recommend him unconditionally.”
