About Ben Allen
Advice for New Home Buyers
Homeownership can be expensive! Be sure you have at least 6-months in reserves as emergency funds.
Great Refi experience
“Ben was a fantastic partner in our refinance journey. We priced out a few loans and Ben delivered the best rate with the lowest closing costs. He locked our rate in promptly and walked us through the whole process. We’d done other refinancing before and this was the smoothest one to date. If rates drop we’ll definitely reach back out to Ben for another Refinance. ”
—Kevin from Nolensville, TN
NBKC was great! We will use them again.
“Ben took the time to thoroughly explain all the details and options available to us, ensuring I felt confident in every decision. He was incredibly responsive, always answering my questions promptly”
—J.P. from Lees Summit, MO
Quick, open, no fluff
“Easy to work with, aggressive rates, reasonable fees. Missed communications occasionally; between emails and online doc submittal, but didn't cause any delay or harm. ”
—Aaron from Spearfish, SD
