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

Timely, accurate, thorough —bob s from Richland, MI

Jim was friendly and knowledgeable. He was very efficient and didn't waste my time. He guided me through the process when I need it, and accurately assessed my needs. Would gladly deal with him again.

Greatly Satisfied Repeat customer —dawn knasas4 from Virginia Beach, VA

I have now refinanced my mortgages three times over the last 8 years with Jim. I keep coming back to him because he is so quick to get back to me and has the best customer service. I recommend him to everyone I know!

RESPONSE:Dawn, we truly appreciate the loyal business and wonderful review - thank you! Brian Unruh, CEO

Extremely responsive, informative and patient —J. Livingston from Huntsville, AL

I interviewed a few lenders while rate shopping and, as a result, worked with a few loan officers. Jim was, by far, the most responsive and helpful. He answered every question I had to my satisfaction, quickly addressed any discrepancies between verbal and written communications, and proactively provided loan status information to me. I'm confident that, with Jim and NBKC, I received the best deal on the market!

RESPONSE:Thank you for sharing your experience working with Jim and the crew - we appreciate it! Brian Unruh, CEO

Best mortgage experience! —ccmart11 from Aledo, TX

This is my third home and first refinancing. Smoothest experience ever, highly recommend Jim and his team for your mortgage needs.

RESPONSE:We love hearing this was your smoothest mortgage experience ever and appreciate the terrific review! Brian Unruh, CEO

The absolute best Loan Officer and Mortgage experience we've had. —Adam M from Wichita Falls, TX

This is our 4th home purchase and Jim made this process so easy and was outstanding. Even our realtor texted to tell us that we chose a great lender and loan officer. Besides great service, NBKC gave us the best rate and saved us thousands in closing costs. I strongly recommend you contact NBKC and Jim if you are considering a home mortgage loan.

RESPONSE:Adam, we are glad to hear this was your best mortgage experience you've ever had and appreciate you sharing! Brian Unruh, CEO

Our GO-TO Guy —Jessica H from Sisters, OR

JIm Schneider is so easy to work with. He responds quickly, we trust him to tell us when it makes sense for us to refinance, and he makes the process seamless. Even with VA loans and being in a different state, it was very easy each time we've used him. I'd recommend him to my family!

RESPONSE:Thank you for your recommendation of Jim and a sincere appreciation for your service to our country - thank you! Brian Unruh, CEO

Superb! —george nmi nunez from Burke, VA

Jim Schneider gets it! Great follow-up and follow-through during entire re-financing process despite disruptions on my end with an upended COVID-19 work schedule. His frank and upfront answers to my questions back in January 2020 had me circle back to him in May when rates improved. I'm definitely keeping in touch with Jim for future loans and I have already recommended him to friends and colleagues.

RESPONSE:George, we appreciate the great review and your referrals to friends and colleagues - thank you! Brian Unruh, CEO

Thank you Jim —Matthew W from Nampa, ID

Once again Jim Schneider and nbkc have come through for us. He handled a complicated refi and new loan origination for us, and even though we had a stumbling block Jim and the nbkc team made sure everything funded with minimal disruption. We are repeat customers of nbkc and Jim specifically due to their expertise with VA loans and excellent customer service. Thank you!

RESPONSE:Matthew, we appreciate the repeat business and sincerely thank you for your service to our country. Brian Unruh, CEO

Always a pleasure to work with —brian craig stewart from Smyrna, GA

We have worked with Jim on three home purchases and one refinance and have always had great experiences. He has consistently saved us money and outperformed other lenders we’ve talked with. We will continue to work with Jim on our future home purchases because we know we can expect exceptional service.

RESPONSE:Brian, thank you for the loyal business and the 5 star review! Brian Unruh, CEO

I had the pleasure of working with Mr. Jim Schneider at NBKC. He is honest, professional and very knowledgeable in his field. He answered all of my questions and ever missed an email or a phone call. Any change or bump in the road was easily fix by Mr. Jim. I've ready referred him to a couple of my friends. I am thinking of refinancing my other house and I can't wait to call Jim again. Kudos to you Jim!!! You have really exceeded my expectations. Try him, I promise that you will not regret!
