Advice for new home buyers

“Make sure you do your research before selecting a lender.”

Great service! —WilliamKP from San Antonio, TX

Made me comfortable and secure in the process. I would recommend this service to friends and family. They worked with my schedule and were persistent in communicating with me.

RESPONSE:William, thank you for your recommendation of Nick and the nbkc team - we appreciate it! Brian Unruh, CEO

Best Lender in the Market —Happyhomebuyer123 from Kalamazoo, MI

Nick was extremely professional, made the entire process headache free, and was just an awesome person to work with. A true pleasure doing business with NBKC Bank.

RESPONSE:We're glad to hear you are a happy home buyer! Thank you for the great review. Brian Unruh, CEO

Refi in Maui Paradise —Tim Duchene from Kihei, HI

Aloha, Nick was great to work with and he was a straight shooter unlike the 4 other agents trying to win my business. Not every lender can work in Hawaii so it was important that our agent new our market. He got it completed in the time he said it would take and that was what we needed. If I had to do it again or know anyone looking to buy or refi I'll send them to Nick in KC! Mahalo nui loa!!!! (Thank you very much!)

RESPONSE:Aloha, Tim and thanks for the wonderful review - and Mahalo nui loa back at ya! Brian Unruh, CEO

Over and Above —brettfancher from Quincy, WA

Nick went over and above all my expectations, he was available for questions after hours, he is professional, and he gets the job done. Our real estate agent commented several times that Nick is a fantastic lending agent. Job well done.

RESPONSE:Thank you for sharing your experience working with Nick and the team! Brian Unruh, CEO

Great, Smooth Experience —gene parker2 from Gallatin, MO

Turned to Nick after having a bad experience with another company. Nick delivered on what he promised and made the entire experience great. He did what the other company said they could not. Was even able to move our closing up by weeks when the purchaser of our old home needed to change.

RESPONSE:Gene, we're glad to hear everything worked out and we appreciate the opportunity to help. Thanks for sharing your experience. Brian Unruh, CEO

Great experience —Erica Truong from Middletown, CT

Nick is amazing to work with and I would definitely recommend him to anyone. He responds quickly, always kept me updated and answered all my questions and needs. This is my first time being a home owner and he made this process as easy as possible for me. Without a doubt, NBKC Bank offers great customer satisfaction and I truly enjoyed working with Nick.

RESPONSE:Erica, we love hearing easy! Big congrats on your first home. Brian Unruh, CEO

Streamlined process —Jesse L from West Jordan, UT

Nick is a great communicator who has your best interest at heart as well as getting you the best deal as possible. He was my go-to person throughout this whole process as a first time buyer who does not have a real estate agent. Between him, the seller's agent, they provided me with lots of useful information. I love how easy and streamlined the whole process was. I was using Veterans United at first but then with Nick's consistency to get me to switch over to NBKC I finally caved in and it was the best decision ever. The first thing I really love was that a copy of my credit decision was sent to me to notify me of what their decision as far as rate was based on, which never happened with Veterans United. The whole process was just fluid in all aspect. The interest rate offered is more the 1% lower than other lenders I used prior to NBKC.

RESPONSE:Jesse, thank you for the awesome review, for the opportunity to provide your VA loan, and most importantly for your service to our country. Brian Unruh, CEO

Smooth, Easy Process —Chase from Norwalk, CT

We had a great experience working with Nick. As first time home buyers, we had a lot of questions throughout the process. Nick was always quick with a response to our dozens of questions and was transparent at each phase of the process. With his help we were able to close early on our home and could not be happier with the service we received.

RESPONSE:Chase, we're so glad to hear everything was smooth and easy! We appreciate the fantastic review and huge congrats on your first home! Brian Unruh, CEO

Great to work with! —stlhousehunting from Saint Louis, MO

We were first-time homebuyers, and Nick made the process easy and straightforward, even when we had a thousand questions. Always available and always polite!

RESPONSE:We love hearing easy and straightforward. Thank you for the great review and congrats on your first home! Brian Unruh, CEO

Disappointed —user0114399 from Spokane, WA

Nick Link was helpful to his capacity. The underwriting team at this bank was a disappointment as they requested many documents at the eleventh hour before closing. I emailed Nick on multiple occasions to confirm everything was lined up for on-time closing, but when the time came, there was items missing such as Tax Return transcripts that should have been obtained at the start of the loan process. Our loan closing was delayed and not on time.

RESPONSE:I am very sorry to hear we did not deliver an exceptional experience. It is certainly our goal to do so with every customer on every loan. We do appreciate the opportunity and if there is anything further you'd like to share about your experience, please email me directly at brian.unruh@nbkc.com. Brian Unruh, CEO
