Best Service! —kimberly Kelly from Greenwood, AR

We have worked with Travis for our last two home purchases. He hands down makes this process so easy and simple. He is the best in the business. He was quick and timely!

smooth, simple, and worry free loan processing —timothykc from Boulder, CO

We have worked with Travis twice now: First on a refinance and most recently on a new home loan. Travis consistently gets us the most competitive rates. More importantly, the process both times has been smooth, simple, and worry free. He reminds you about key milestones, patiently works through any issues you may encounter, and is always prompt and responsive with his communication. Highest possible recommendation!

Review of Travis Smith —ruthecampbell from Goleta, CA

We really enjoyed working with Travis Smith in procuring our loan. We felt that he was honest and easy to work with. The process was efficient but also at a pace where didn't feel we were pressured into making a decision before we had enough information or time to think about it, as we had had with a previous lender. We had confidence in Travis and he came through for us.

Exceeded Expectations —Noah from Austin, TX

In short, Travis far exceeded the service I expected to receive from a mortgage lender. No nonsense, just results! I initially contacted 4 different lenders, each of which provided similar rates and fees. Travis was one of two lenders (out of the four total) that provided clear upfront numbers and answers to my questions in a very timely manner. The other two (I won't name any names) wanted nothing more than to throw me straight into the application process and failed to disclose that their rates came at the cost of mortgage points and they didn't mention the associated fees. At the end of the day, Travis just took care of business. He respected my wishes to keep communication through email (due to my work schedule) and responded to all questions quickly, honestly, and thoroughly. I will continue to use Travis in the future and have recommended him to family and friends.

Easy and Relaxed —bo j campbell from Buellton, CA

This refinance was as easy as they come. Travis responded to all our questions, even on the weekend sometimes. There was no pressure and everything was all taken care of.

Fast, Efficient, Helpful, Excellent Communication —derrickgallagher from Kansas City, MO

We worked with Travis to do a fast (3-week) closing on a new mortgage to buy our dream house, and we were super impressed. He was very responsive to any questions we had, gave us clear direction on steps and documents, and made our loan happen quickly! Our real estate agent said that he was very easy to work with from her perspective as well, and she would recommend Travis to her future clients.

Great Communication —pyostn 05 from Broken Arrow, OK

Travis did a great job of progressing the process by communicating expectations to keep you headed towards closing. Our experience couldn’t have been better.

Very good transaction —adesimone9 from Columbia, MD

Everything from quote to closing went smoothly. Travis was always quick to respond to any questions. I appreciated the ability to submit almost everything online.

Simplified Process, best rate —objectivist111 from Clarksville, TN

I was shocked at how well my mortgage process has gone with this company. Travis Smith was quick and efficient, nothing was drawn out. Their process was ten times easier than two other companies I was working with. They gave me the best rate up front. Another company tried hard to beat their rate to compete, but in the end couldn't compete with the closing costs.

Prompt, Friendly, Easy and Fast! —user9048940 from Philadelphia, PA

I spoke to several lenders and Travis was the best. I had previously had a bad experience with refinancing and I could tell that Travis would make sure that I had a great experience. He was on top of things, very responsive and answered questions that I had with confidence and clarity. It was extremely easy to do and the NBKC tools were great. I am pleased with Travis, got a great rate and it all got done in short order.

About (Me)

What's your advice for new home buyers?

Don't get bogged down by the overall numbers when comparing lenders. Only go off of the numbers each lender can control, and find a lender that makes you comfortable to work with. Home-buying is stressful enough, so find an Loan Officer you trust.
