Professional, knowledgeable, responsive
“I was looking for a cash out refinance for a property in another state. Andy offered several different loans to choose from and found one that met my requirements. He answers questions very promptly, is extremely knowledgeable, easy to talk to and has a good sense of humor. In my many previous real estate purchases and refinances I have not dealt with anyone better than Andy. It was truly refreshing to work with an expert, competent loan professional who really understands how to treat a customer. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a loan and would use him again in a heartbeat.”

His proposals on interest rate and closing cost were very attractive compared to other mortgage agents, and he went through every step very neatly, with no delay or doubts. Most of the time he responded to my questions or requests within half a day. It was very fun experience.”

An absolute pleasure to work with
“I don’t think I am able to say enough great things about Andy. Through the entire process Andy was responsive, informative and an absolute pleasure.

Andy is amazing!
“I will highly recommend Andy and his company to any home-buyer. Andy was proactive, responsive and provided ready answers to all my questions. The rates he gave me beat those offered by other loan companies. He has a great personality and he made the home-buying process a really enjoyable experience. I will be sending all my friends and family over whenever they need a home loan!”

Easy to work with - understanding, responsive and asks good questions
“Just closed on my first home purchase. Andy was a total MVP. He made the process so effortless by being super responsive and quickly tying up all the loose ends as we got closer to the end. You really want someone like Andy pulling for you to close on your new home.”
—Christie Finnie from from Henderson, NV
Andy is a closer!
“We went the new construction route for our first house, and the builder/seller was beyond challenging to work with. For example, they failed to tell us that the house was incomplete before the appraiser arrived at the job site for the final inspection. However, Andy was a super hero, and managed to work with the NBKC team to help us close on time. If you have the opportunity to work with Andy, don't even think twice—he works hard for your business and knows how to get all the tasks completed for a smooth closing. From pricing to funding, Andy was a total rock star, and excellent with his communication; HIGHLY RECOMMEND!”
—Marcus from from Ann Arbor, MI

What is your motto or personal mantra?
What you focus on grows, so focus daily on the positive outcomes you desire in your life and they will absolutely come true.
What is something that people would be surprised if they knew about you?
I make an award-winning cherry pie from scratch. As a kid, my grandmother Helen always made me one every time I went to the farm to visit. She never had a recipe written down so when she lost her memory, I lost the best pie ever made. Store pies are awful, so I researched and tried tons of recipes before finally finding one that was close. After a few tweaks I had it and won 2 pie contests with it! I use her old rolling pin when I make the crust. Thanks Grandma!!
