Excellence at it's best —Cornell Thomas from Blythewood, SC
I have found the company and person to purchase/refinance my mortgages, now and in the future. Working with Lori, you know she is giving you the best advice/recommendations with the choices presented. Lori is attentive, responsive, and loans close on or before time expected. She is very personable, courteous, an excellent example of customer first, service and professionalism.
RESPONSE:Cornell, thank you for sharing your terrific review! Brian Unruh, CEO
Lori is absolutely stellar! —Megan R. from Mendham, NJ
I have worked with Lori for many years -- 3 mortgages and a refinance. When we were thinking about buying house #3, I had absolutely no hesitation in immediately contacting Lori (happily, again). There are no words sufficient to express how stellar she is -- she is prompt, precise, persistent with third parties to obtain what is needed for the loan and her communication is stellar. The speed in which she is able to get things processed leaves real estate agents in awe. I have referred her to several professional colleagues, friends and family members and she consistently amazes.
RESPONSE:Megan, we appreciate the repeat business, the referrals, and the awesome review! Brian Unruh, CEO
Awesome —Denise Duchene from Wilbraham, MA
Lori was always available. As a detail oriented person she fielded my endless questions quickly. She informed of what was needed every step of the way. She even went so far as to let me know she would be checking emails on vacation. I would highly recommend her to anyone.
RESPONSE:Denise, thank you for your recommendation of Denise and the team! Brian Unruh, CEO
Lori Larson is Simply Excellent —javentanner from Sandy, UT
Lori worked with me when I bought my first home, and then, years later, she helped me refinance. No matter how complicated things got, she had answers and solutions. She is patient and personable, making you feel confident that she understands just what is needed for a given situation. She is a true expert. I cannot recommend her enough.

Top Notch - excellent service, knowledge and response time. —matt gilroy7 from Colbert, WA
I have had the pleasure of working with Lori multiple times over the past 6 or 7 years. I cannot say enough about how fantastic the experience is, every time. I have referred her to several friends and family members who all agree that it is the best mortgage experience they have had. Lori's knowledge of mortgage products is superb, her response time is always faster than I would expect (including off-hours) and her service is always top notch. I can't say enough great things about working with her.
RESPONSE:Thank you for the repeat business, for referring us to others, and for the terrific review! Brian Unruh, CEO
Buying a house —zuser201710081247354 from San Bernardino, CA
Lori was always available and responded quick to all my call, emails or text. She stayed on time of everything until the loan closed. She was very professional from our nation conversation tub appointment of close escrow. She kept me informed of everything that was going on. Buying a house is fun, excited and stressful. Lori helped me relax and not worry so much. If I buy again I will keep Lori as my lender.
RESPONSE:We appreciate the wonderful review! Brian Unruh, CEO
Most excellent Mortgage Banker —sumartin from Ransom Canyon, TX
We have used Lori twice. Once when purchasing our home in Oregon and again when moving to Texas. Her excellent service with both purchases was unsurpassed by any other mortgage banker. She is kind, patient, calm and can handle any situation with grace and professionalism. I hope to never have to purchase another home, but if I do, I will only use Lori-I just hope she will always be available!! I wouldn't recommend any other banker. She is absolutely a cut above the rest!! if you are looking for a loan, I highly recommend her. :)

Flawless Experience —neill hollenshead from Marana, AZ
My wife and I were extremely pleased with Lori and nbkc bank for our recent refinancing. She is an extraordinarily capable, knowledgeable and hard-working professional who was always prompt and responsive to our questions and concerns. Although we were in Arizona and she was in Kansas City, it seemed like she was right next door and always accessible, even after hours and on the weekend. We were also impressed with the very competitive rate that she was able to get us, the clarity of her proposal, the effectiveness of the bank’s systems, and the smoothness of the process. We highly recommend her and think that her firm is very fortunate to have her as an employee.
RESPONSE:Neill, thank you for your recommendation of Lori and for sharing your experience! Brian Unruh, CEO
Very professional —user2521826 from Summerland Key, FL
Working with Lori was pleasant and refreshing. She was always responsive by email or phone. Lori kept my loan moving along and worked even harder for an early closing at my request. I definitely recommend her to anyone considering a home loan. Lori is of great value to her company, and she should be promoted as soon as possible.
RESPONSE:Thank you for the great feedback and sharing your experience working with Lori! Brian Unruh, CEO
