About Joe Zucht
Advice for New Home Buyers
Focus on monthly budget, not purchase price. You only buy the house once, but you pay your mortgage every month.
Great Experience with Joe... Again!
“I worked with Joe four years ago to buy my previous house. My experience with Joe last time was great, so I decided to work with him again since I'm moving and need a new house. Joe was friendly, knowledgeable, and available to answer my questions. Joe was able to get me a great rate and worked hard to get me the best terms for my situation. I highly recommend working with Joe.”

Excellent service and experience!
“In looking to purchase my new home in Arizona, I researched several financial institutions and came across NBKC bank and Joe Zucht. I worked for a large financial institution for over 23 years and wanted to see how other banks stacked up, NBKC bank did not disappoint! I got a better rate and the experience with Joe and Ellen Davis far exceeded my expectations! This was my 7th home purchase, but my first outside of NY. Joe walked me through all of the differences purchasing in AZ and the process was smooth and seemless! I will definitely use Joe and NBKC bank for my future refinance and/or home purchasing needs!”

Fantastic experience and customer service
“Joe and his team we're fantastic to work with, throughout the loan and closing process. He was very responsive and took time to explain all the details and layout options. I spent a lot of talking through all the details with Joe and his team. This was my wife and I's first time going through this process, and I certainly had a lot to learn. Joe was patient with my questions and very informative (and clear!) about how we could proceed. ”
