- About us
Helping You Find the Right Home Loan—With Confidence
At Heritage Lending Group Inc., we believe a mortgage should support your long-term financial
goals—not complicate them. Founded by Indianapolis native Durrell Cullens, our firm is built
on experience, transparency, and a client-first approach to home financing.
With a strong background in banking, finance, and lending, Durrell brings a strategic perspective
to every loan. Having worked across multiple areas of finance—including mortgages,
investments, and small business—he understands that no two borrowers are alike. That’s why
Heritage Lending Group focuses on personalized solutions instead of one-size-fits-all loans.
As an independent mortgage broker, we partner with multiple lenders to help clients access
competitive rates, flexible programs, and clear guidance from start to finish. Whether you’re
purchasing your first home, refinancing, or planning your next move, our goal is to make the
mortgage process simple, transparent, and stress-free.
