Advice for New Home Buyers
Find a loan officer with experience, and that you truly like and trust. The home buying process can be stressful and can come with some pain points. An experienced Loan Officer can make a huge difference in how that process goes, and if you pick correctly on your first house, you will have your Loan Officer for life to handle all the other refinances and purchases that come your way in the future.
“This is my 13th move in the last 31 years, and I haven't had a better experience with a lender. Todd jumped in when my other lender fell out and hit the ground running. Would 100% recommend you check out NBKC as your mortgage company and ask for Todd Shaver by name. You will not be disappointed.”

“Todd was great to work with for my mortgage. Always quick to respond and had answers and explanations for all my questions. I also appreciate the lower fees and competitive rates offered by NBKC.”
—Bryan from San Marcos, TX
“After I filled the application form on NBKC website, Todd called me and introduced himself to me. Todd is friendly and responsive. There were many back and forth email exchanges between us even on the weekend but Todd was able to answer all my questions and gather all the necessary information. Although the loan application process is tedious, I was able to secure a good interest rate on my new home with his help. Thankful for Todd and his help. I would highly recommend him for your home purchasing. ”

“I have had 11 different mortgage in my life. The last 4 have been with NBKC. I have been a member of NFCU for 34 years and they could no longer compete with the service that NBKC provides. Todd works around the clock to make sure I have everything I need. Todd has a great sense of urgency and has been able to get me closed in 3 weeks on the last two mortgages. At NFCU I was getting handed off to inexperienced people, timing was not of concern for them. ”

“I have worked with many mortgage lenders and brokers previously and my experience with NBKC has by far been superior. Todd's team and the staff at NBKC were very efficient and flexible to ensure our loan closed. If you are shopping for a great rate and transparency throughout the process go with these guys they are stella!!”

“Todd, from NBKC was amazing to work with. At the beginning, he explained the entire process. The preapproval, inspections, and process was seamless. I wanted to close in 30 days, and he was able to make that happen. He definitely exceeded my expectations, and I highly recommend Todd, as well as NBKC.”

“I had an outstanding experience working with Todd Shaver (NBKC). From start to finish, he was professional, knowledgeable, and incredibly responsive. They took the time to explain every step of the process, ensuring I felt confident and informed throughout my loan journey. No question was too small, and they always made themselves available to address any concerns promptly. Thanks to their expertise and efficiency, the process was smooth and stress-free. I highly recommend Todd to anyone looking for a reliable and trustworthy mortgage professional. Their commitment to customer service and securing the best possible terms made all the difference. Thank you for making this such a positive experience!”

“Todd went all and beyond to make sure our loan was seamless. He communicated well and his response was prompt. Thanks you so much Todd,I will recommend you over and over again!”
—Ronky from Brownsburg, IN
“Todd was awesome. He walked me through step by step the entire time. He was always quick to respond even to stupid questions and concerns. He was able to connect with me around my crazy work schedule. He was able to get my closing cost and monthly payments lower than we had discussed which was very helpful. And while my closing was delayed it was through no fault of Todd. Would definitely recommend Todd and if I ever decide to go thru this crazy process again he is my guy.”
—T. Bratcher from Inman, SC
“It was the quickest refinance I’ve ever done. First time I touched base with Todd on December 28, on January 5th I received my closing disclosure, and on January 10 refinancing was completed. Todd was always very responsive, and in general very nice guy. Once rates drop again I will refinance with Todd again”

Coaching my son’s basketball teams (8 years so far), watching sports, working out, grilling/cooking, and spending time with my wife and kids.
After graduating from college with a degree in Nutrition & Exercise Science, my first job was at Gold’s Gym. I was a personal trainer and got my first taste of sales there. A lot of stories in those two years spent at the gym, but fortunately one of my clients recruited me to get into mortgage sales, and that has been my life ever since.
