Knows his lending products very well and does great with Veteran loans. Would highly recommend him for anyone buying or refinancing a mortgage. Prompt communication and great rapport. He personally helped me refinance into a much lower interest rate for our VA loan.

In September 2018, while in a Costco store, I listened to a man promoting home mortgages through Costco associated banks. At the time I was in the process of researching banks for the purpose of obtaining a mortgage on a rental we own. The bank that seamed the best was NBKC Bank. The banks have many loan officers but I believe I lucked-out with Travis Tjaden the top Loan Originator Officer. Mr. Tjaden has been on top of every step of the process. This has allowed the process to flow very smoothly and quickly. It is absolutely a blessing to work with Mr. Tjaden. I actually look forward to talking to him. He quickly responds to every email I send and if there is an issue, he gently gives me his advice on how to correct that issue. As an example, this past Labor Day September 3, 2018 he responded to my email even though his bank was closed. He was able to call me because his cell phone receives forwards from his office phone. In this way he stays in communication with his clients. We were able to discuss the appraiser that was scheduled to appraise the condo that day. Anyone who needs a mortgage will not go wrong with Travis Tjaden because his clients are a priority to him. I hope NBKC realizes that it is employees like Mr Tjaden that allow your bank to get stellar reviews. I hope he is well compensated because he is a great representative of your bank.

Travis was recommended by a trusted peer....very thankful to both. Ours was a VA loan which brings some additional challenges...but regardless Travis made the process easy, transparent and very efficient. We knew from start to finish what to expect and exactly where we were in the process. Any issues on our end he easily navigated around. At closing the agent was impressed at the rate we received as it was a full percentage point better than all others she handled in the last 60 days. Bottom line, if ever in the market again or I have any close family/friends that are, Travis will be my 1st and only recommendation as he can offer great rates and makes the process simple/smooth.

Travis Tjaden was recommended to me by a fellow coworker. He was great at finding me a low rate for a VA loan and working with me to accommodate a contingency. He was also able to work around a requirement of selling our first home before closing on our second. Highly recommend Travis to anyone.

I highly recommend Travis! As a first time home buyer, he took the time to ensure a smooth process and explained everything Thoroughly. He was with us every step of the way and kept in constant contact which was reassuring.

Travis was the best ! Easy way to get a loan! I can’t believe how amazing the process was, I highly recommended him, less time that we expected, definitely we’ll keep using this bank !

Travis was very knowledgeable and creative. He was able to find solutions that met our need and exceeded our expectations. As a Costco member he was able to save us in fees. Travis made everything easy and was able to walk me through every step of the process. Communication was quick and easy, Travis went the extra mile for us. If we need another mortgage we will go through Travis again. I Highly Recommend him!!

Very pleased with NBKC and especially Travis Tjaden. All terms stayed solid, questions answered instantly and smoothness through the entire process. Any mortgage for anyone should start and end here.

Very professional, quick and walked us through the process the entire way. I would recommend NBKC to anyone looking for a mortgage. The closing costs were less than two other lenders I had previously gotten quotes from.

Travis did a great job securing my VA loan. He made a complicated process easier than I expected. I would highly recommend using Travis, and I would use him again.
