Travis Tjaden

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.

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 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!!

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.

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.

This is the second time I've worked with Travis. He made the process easy and was always available to answer questions. Both times out of state. I recommend Travis to everykne, but specifically Active military looking to use a VA loan.

I'm a Costco member & Veteran who was seeking a lender for a home purchase in Montana. Travis was referred to me by a co-worker and I am so glad that we chose him to work with. He was very proactive and no matter how much he had going on during his day, he always had time to address my concerns and answer my endless questions. He is well versed in the VA loan process and was very knowledgeable with Montana lending laws. Travis ensured that every aspect of his responsibility for my mortgage was taken care of in a timely manner. His attention to detail and willingness to work long hours enabled us to close two weeks early. Travis is very personable, professional, and a true pleasure to work with. I will look him up again on my next home purchase, and any of you searching for a lender should look him up as well - you will not be disappointed!

Travis worked with me step by step.I would say there is no difference between local lender and out of state lender if you have a guy like Travis . this was my first home and I was worried but with him it was extremely easy and stress free. If I had any questions he answered right away and if we ran into any issues he made things work. Highly recommended!!!

Travis was awesome! Although being many states away, he was able to walk me through every step of my long (to me) homebuying process; he also added a little needed humor when times were tough. He's knowledgeable in his craft and seeks to learn more from other businesses and vendors to better help his customers. I did not see the stress and chaos going on in the background, as he handled everything professionally so that I could close on my requested date. I cannot thank you enough!!

This was our second time dealing with Travis, first was a 30 year mortgage and now a 15 year mortgage. On both occasions, Travis was very knowledgeable and extremely helpful. Travis not only addressed our concerns during business hours, but communicated with us outside of business hours. It is nice to know that someone was there for us no matter what time it was. I can 100% say if we ever need mortgaging, we will go through Travis again, hands down. Thank you Travis, well done!!
