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

Jim Schneider & NBKC were great! —Angela from Washington, DC

I was extremely satisfied with my experience in working with Jim Schneider and NBKC to refinance my home. They offered a very good deal, better than the competition, with a very competitive interest rate and much lower fees. In fact, the deal was so good that I kept wondering if it was too good to be true and kept bracing myself to be hit with a surprise fee or a processing difficulty of some sort. I'm very happy to say that never happened! Jim made the process as easy as possible. He always provided information in a very timely manner and was super responsive, patiently and clearly answering any and all questions. He was professional, polite, friendly, and straightforward -- a pleasure to deal with. I would recommend Jim and NBKC to anyone for their home financing needs -- in fact, I already have. Thanks Jim & NBKC!

RESPONSE:Angela, thank you for the wonderful review and the recommendation of Jim and the nbkc team! Brian Unruh, CEO

Go with Jim at NBKC! —stephenacline from Fort Walton Beach, FL

I don’t even look anywhere else. Jim has helped me with our last two home purchases and we’ll go back to him when we are in the market again. By far the best rates to go along with exceptional service. Jim answer all of your questions/concerns in a very timely manner ( always same day) and looks to take care of you as the customer at all times. I give Jim’s name to everyone looking to buy or refinance. Thanks Jim!

RESPONSE:We appreciate the repeat business and the 5 star review - thank you! Brian Unruh, CEO

Detailed, Forthcoming, and Efficient! —P&M from Columbus, MS

Amazing Lender —travisrallison from Dallas, TX

Jim was very easy to work with during the loan process and kept me informed on everything during the entire process. He made refinancing during a Pandemic a breeze.

RESPONSE:We love hearing the process was a breeze - music to our ears! 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

Amazing bank and Exceptional service by Jim —Neeraj Somani from Woodbridge, NJ

I am very happy to find NBKC bank and great service provided by Jim. I will highly recommend this to my friends and family. Always received prompt response from him and always kept me in loop about the process. The best part is they gave me best rate compared to others and even credit towards my points. In today's scenario where almost every home owner is looking for refinancing and keeping lender busy it hard to find such a great service.

RESPONSE:Neeraj, thank you for the terrific review and your recommendation of Jim and the team - we appreciate it! Brian Unruh, CEO

I've shopped rates every time and NBKC never fails to be the lowest... —Geoff M. from Park City, UT

This was our fourth mortgage with NBKC and every time has been the most pleasant and seamless of transactions highlighted by the very best of customer service. Jim Schneider has served us each time; his responsiveness, knowledge, courtesy, and professionalism is unmatched in our experience with lenders. He is acutely familiar with VA loans and their nuances, so for the military lender, you won't find any better. I've shopped rates every time and NBKC never fails to be the lowest (with no hidden costs/fees). I highly recommend giving them a shot at your next loan!

RESPONSE:Geoff, we appreciate the repeat business (and glad we can continue to earn it). Thank you for the awesome review and most importantly, thank you for your service to our country. Brian Unruh, CEO
