Derek was great to work with on our loan. He is very responsive (even after hours and on weekends). He was up front about costs and was pretty accurate. Overall, we had a great experience.

We're glad to hear it was a great experience and we appreciate the review! Brian Unruh, CEO
Derek is the man. He made financing a home a whole new experience for me. I never believed the process could go so smoothly. If you’re going to get a home loan, this is the company, and Derek is the guy.
