Advice for new home buyers

Don’t be afraid to ask questions. Next to having a child, buying a home can be the most stressful thing you ever do so work with someone you trust.

Super easy & efficient! —Nate Shields from Pleasant Grove, UT
We found Ryan through the Costco lending program, after a friend recommended it. They said it was super easy & efficient, and never had to leave their house...and they were right! Ryan got in touch with us and let us know what documents and info we needed to submit to him, and he took care of the rest! He was quick to answer any questions along the way, and was able to get us the lowest rate possible. Within a few weeks we had someone on our doorstep with closing documents to sign and our mortgage payment is now 10% lower each month!
RESPONSE:Nate, thank you for the wonderful review and sharing your experience! Brian Unruh, CEO

Quick and efficient —Tony King from Cincinnati, OH
Great to work with. Very responsive which is hard to find in this industry. Quoted closing costs and finance rates were right on. I definitely would use him for future needs

Highly recommend Ryan and his company! —kilpayne from Kansas City, MO
Ryan was extremely helpful throughout the process. No surprises or unexpected costs. Very quick process. I am extremely satisfied and happy!!! Thank you very much Ryan! Can not say enough really nor do I have the words. But I better keep typing because I have to come up with at least 150 characters or this survey won't let me proceed.....and so now I'm rambling because you know I really feel like I owe to this guy now since he even at one point when I was freaking out about the final loan approval, talked me down and got me calm.
RESPONSE:No freaking out is allowed when you're working with nbkc... Thank you for sharing your experience working with Ryan and the team - we appreciate it! Brian Unruh, CEO

Ryan from NBKC Bank —Kevin E. from Dover, OH
Absolutely awesome online mortgage experience with Ryan from NBKC Bank!!! He was able to be contacted almost 24/7, with any questions, which kept things moving right along. Who would have thought that buying a house could go smoothly. They clearly have done their homework and are great at it! I personally can't think of one single thing that could have made my experience any better.
RESPONSE:Kevin, we are glad to hear everything went smoothly and appreciate you sharing! Brian Unruh, CEO

Quick communication and helped move up our closing date —Theodore from Pine Island, MN
Ryan was great! I found NBKC Bank through the Costco marketplace and was connected with Ryan Lewis. I never felt any pressure from him, but he was quite quick to respond to all of my questions and concerns, even before we decided to go forward in the process. We found a home and settled on a 60 day closing period, but we later wanted to move this date up at the last moment due to the coronavirus situation. Ryan worked quick with our realtor to ensure everything was completed in time, and we closed happily in less than two weeks. I would definitely work with Ryan again!
RESPONSE:Theodore, we appreciate the wonderful review - thank you! Brian Unruh, CEO

Streamlined easy process —user5150740 from Waltham, MA
The process was streamlined and easy. Ryan was very helpful, he prepared everything quickly, communicated efficiently and clearly, and delivered as promised. He responded to to all inquiries within a couple of hours even when it was after working hours. I did not feel any sales pressure. Even after the signing of the loan documents, which typically when his role ends, he continued to be helpful, answering questions and guiding me through the process.
RESPONSE:We love hearing streamlined and easy - thank you for sharing! Brian Unruh, CEO
