Meet Scott

Loan Officer

46 Reviews - 5 Rating

I take pride in giving people clear, honest, and accurate advice, no matter what their situation. I won’t recommend anything to you that I wouldn’t do if I was in your situation. I believe in being totally upfront and treating people the right way. As a loan officer since 2013, I've helped hundreds of people purchase and refinance their homes. All of my clients say they like my cool, calm, and collected demeanor. I really like making a complicated loan seem quick, painless and easy. Combined with the technology and resources at NBKC Bank, I guarantee you will have a great experience if you put me to work for you.

Advice for new home buyers

Think about what your life will look like over the next 3-5 years. Life happens fast and most people stay in their first home for less than 5 years. Make sure your home will accommodate what you want your life to be like for the next few years.

Easy Experience —Stephanie from Ruther Glen, VA

A friend referred me to Scott and I was a bit skeptical because of past experiences with refi lenders. Scott listened to my situation and found an option that fit my needs - fantastic experience!

Great experience —David L from Saint Louis, MO

Scott worked hard to close the re-fi. Did everything he promised. Communication was prompt and thorough. The interface is very easy to work with. Even with COVID-19, we were able to do a partial online close. The in-person close was very brief as well. The whole process went well and the rates and closing costs were the best I saw.

RESPONSE:David, we are glad to hear that you had a great experience and appreciate the 5 star review! Brian Unruh, CEO

YET AGAIN - Scott delivers extraordinarily fantastic service! —Paul lasiter from Florence, MT

Scott and NBKC Bank have been with us every step of the way in building our ranch in Montana. First, Scott closed a $1 million loan to help our family buy the home of our dreams in Montana - in the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic, and now, we have paid that loan down and refinanced at the lowest rate in my lifetime. Truly amazing job Scott! The bridge loan that Scott and NBKC Bank provided was life-changing for us, and now the completed refinance has locked in low payments for our household. We SO appreciate Scott's hard work, determination, and ongoing confidence in our family. Well done. While I would like to say I'll be back as a repeat customer...Scott may have worked himself out of that opportunity the the spectacular loan we have now. THANK YOU SCOTT!

RESPONSE:Paul, congrats on your dream home! We're glad we could help play a part and appreciate the terrific review. Brian Unruh, CEO

Awesome Lender —ericbellew from Riverview, FL

Scott is awesome! This was my first time buying a home and I had MANY questions. Scott was always prompt in responding and was very knowledgeable. He made sure all of my questions were answered so that I could understand everything. He also made sure I knew what the next steps were going to be so I was never left wondering what was supposed to happen. He looked for discounts that I didn't know to ask for so I would pay less in the long run. When I buy my next home, I will look for Scott and I highly recommend him as a lender!

RESPONSE:We appreciate the opportunity to earn your business and big congrats on your first home! Brian Unruh, CEO
