“Of the numerous times I’ve had to go through the process of working with lenders, I can say with confidence that working with Nick Payne at NBKC Bank could not have been more accommodating, simple, and put me at ease throughout the entire experience. I found Nick to be very knowledgeable in his profession, attentive, diligent, and dependable. He goes above and beyond as he works hard for you. He answers and tends to all of your concerns, very professional, never leaves you hanging, replies promptly, and is always courteous. I found him to be an outstanding working individual showcasing great work ethics and was beyond pleased with his service. The whole closing was also catered for my convenience, and made the entire process simple. I would highly recommend NICK PAYNE to everyone I know. It was a pleasure working with him.”

Pleasure to work with, highly recommended
“I would give Nick 10 stars if I could, this was by far the best mortgage experience I went through. First of all, the interest rate and the closing costs were the lowest among other lenders I contacted, and then the entire process was extremely easy and quick, with no last minute rush or any surprises. Nick handled all the communication through email (which was strongly my preference), and he was unbelievably quick to respond to all my questions, always with helpful replies. Fantastic experience, I recommend him to anyone I know, and I would definitely work with him again.”

Nick is outstanding! He takes phone calls and answers texts well after normal business hours. He is the gold standard for customer service.
“This was the second time I've used Nick for my mortgage and I will use him again if the opportunity arises. He is the best when it comes to putting the customer first and answering questions. He always gets his customers the best available rates and closes on time. I highly recommend Nick Payne for your lending needs.”

Nick gives the best all the way around loan service
“I had an excellent experience working with Nick Payne. Nick helped me with a brand new home purchase. The builder was making it extremely difficult when I decided to switch lender within 30 days of closing, Nick handled the builder with exceptional professionalism and patience. We closed the loan smoothly and on time. Nick gave a great rate, was quick to respnding to emails, usually within minutes; he is courteous and a pleasure to work with. I know who to call when I shop for my next loan or refi.”

A true Knight in shining armor!
“There are not enough positive words in the dictionary to cover all the good things I'd like to say about working with Nick. Always positive, quick to reply, professional yet warm and friendly. This was the first time I've ever had to deal with a lending institution and even though he was out of my region, I'm so glad I found him. I recommend him with my highest compliments. I wish I could leave 25 stars, not just five!”
—Sally J from from Westport, NY
