Excellent Service —Kurt from Phoenix, AZ
Nick was a pleasure to work with in refinancing our home. He was prompt when questions came up and provided accurate estimates. Doing a refinance completely online during 2020 was a blessing. Thank you Nick!

Excellent Finance/Refinance Experience (VA Loan initially/ IRRRL a year later) —Torian C. from Irving, TX
I have worked with Nick Link for both my initial VA Loan (AUG 2019) as well as my IRRRL loan (July 2020). As a matter of fact, I specifically reached out to him for my IRRRL because my experience with my initial loan was excellent. Nick has always been very patient with answering all of my questions, making himself available both through phone and e-mail. There was a bit of a hiccup on the VA side of things this time around (they couldn't find my Certificate of Eligibility and this is what caused the delay in my closing), and Nick made sure to stay on top of them to get the ball rolling as quickly as possible. 10/10 would recommend his services.
RESPONSE:Torian, we appreciate the multiple opportunities to assist with you VA loans and sincerely thank you for your service to our country - thank you! Brian Unruh, CEO

Nick link Loan originator, NBKC —jacques millaud from Walnut Creek, CA
From our first contact Nick has been very supportive. He answered the questions we had about income and assets accounting which led us to fill the applications for 2 home refinancing. He has been very swift at moving the documents we provided through the review process and initiating requests for further clarifications. He always kept us informed by e-mail of the ongoing process and we communicated also quite a few times on the phone. At all time we felt that we could trust him and he had our interests at heart. It was indeed a pleasure working with him.
RESPONSE:Jacques, we appreciate the wonderful review - thank you! Brian Unruh, CEO

That was easy! —apsu86 from Nashville, TN
My wife and I decided to refinance and we chose NBKC from being a member at Costco. It was an easy decision. Nick was great and kept us informed daily! The main game changer was he was always there if we had a question. Great company.

Fast, friendly, extremely helpful —user3486719 from Falls Church, VA
Nick made the process so easy and was the primary reason we went with his bank. Every question we had through the process he answered in a very rapid manner, guided us through the process and the complications from doing it during the corona shut down and also kept on top of the rates and got us a lower one than originally quoted!
RESPONSE:We love hearing that the process was easy! Thank you for sharing. Brian Unruh, CEO

Excellent —fndsolutions from Chandler, AZ
My wife and I have purchased dozens of homes and had good and bad experiences when getting a loan. My son is a realtor in Florida and he recommended Nick Link a loan agent in NBKC Bank in Kansas City ... we were purchasing in Arizona. My son assured me that the distance was "No big deal." He was right. Nick Link understood that we wanted to purchase the new house, renovate it, move in and then sell our existing home, perhaps two after purchasing the new home. We have done that before with a bridge loan before, they are a pain and costly. NBKC offers bridge loans, but Nick suggested that we Recast our loan two months later, saving us money and it is hassle free. Nick Link was professional and friendly, and easy to work with. We have already recommended his services to others for both commercial and residential refinancing.
RESPONSE:Thank you for sharing your experience working with Nick and we very much appreciate you already recommended us to others - thank you! Brian Unruh, CEO
