Work with a lender you feel comfortable with and who makes themselves available to answer all of your questions.

Thanks again Jim! —Matthew W from Nampa, ID

Jim and nbkc are our go-to for lending, no question. We have financed three home purchases and multiple refinances with nbkc over the past decade- Jim has been there with us almost the whole time. Jim's response time, knowledge, and help understanding our financing options are second to none. Jim's expertise in VA loans and nbkc's low financing costs are a stellar combination!

RESPONSE:Matthew, wow, thank you so much for the loyal business (it's the highest compliment we can receive). We appreciate being able to help with your VA loans and sincerely thank you for your service to our country. Brian Unruh, CEO

Great experience —Glen from Edgewater, MD

I was nervous at first doing everything virtually but Jim made it easy. He answered all questions and explained the process in detail. He was in contact at the right times - not overbearing. The experience was great and I recommend Jim for anyone doing a refi.

RESPONSE:Glen, we are glad to hear you had a great experience and appreciate you sharing! Brian Unruh, CEO

Excellent Service —ade from Montgomery Village, MD

The quality of the refinance was excellent, as well as the customer service and transparency. The closing costs were also transparent. There was also the added option to upgrade to executive member of Costco to take advantage of further savings on closing costs.

RESPONSE:We appreciate the terrific review - thank you for sharing! Brian Unruh, CEO

Great Experience —Derrek Douglas from East Northport, NY

After shopping for refinancing rates and doing various google searches, NBKC popped up on one of the review sites. It was highly rated with both customers and on BBB. I contacted NBKC asking for a quote and they put me in touch with Jim. From the get go, Jim was extremely attentive, quick with email responses, and always available for a phone call to help me understand the process and all the numbers that come with refinancing. I will absolutely recommend Jim to anyone of my family and friends.

RESPONSE:Derrek, thank you for your recommendation of Jim and the nbkc team! Brian Unruh, CEO
