You're in Great Hands with Lori in Your Corner
“Home purchasing and refinancing can be a slog and a headache given all the deadlines, stakeholders, required documentation, and costs. Lori made the process so much easier than I anticipated. From the beginning, she sent me various rate scenarios for my refinance, talked me through the entire process, made recommendations (but didn't push), and made me feel confident that I had someone looking out for me. When I had questions, she responded promptly to them, even over weekends and around the Thanksgiving holiday. She copied me on emails she sent out to the various other parties - like the title company, my city's real estate services department, and the appointed settlement agent. She was proactive with requests for information as well as regular and repeated follow-ups to the other parties we were waiting on. She didn't just sit by for information to come in, and I really felt like she streamlined the entire process by taking the reins. I highly recommend working with Lori because you know you'll have a fighter working for you.”
—James C from Philadelphia, PA

Highest Quality from Lori Larson
“Lori Larson was the best and most trusted lender I could have asked for and I can genuinely say she is EXCELLENT. My homebuying experience began with Lori and not only did she provide multiple loan projections to consider, but she also always found availability to answer my questions so I could make the best informed decisions. I spoke with many lenders and not a single other one was as transparent and able to present loan projections as clearly and as comprehensively as Lori's which I really appreciated since day one. In one instance, her due diligence single-handedly saved me from buying a condo with more issues than appeared on surface when she found and shared deficiencies she found on FannieMae. Again, when we found our current condo, the seller wanted to expedite the close and Lori made it happen by following up with everyone to make sure deadlines were met. Lori's invaluable quality of work and character make her the best and I would absolutely work with her again and recommend her to anyone else looking for the highest quality.”
—Peter Y from Hackensack, NJ
Lori is AMAZING!
“The whole loan process with Lori couldn't have been smoother. From initiation, to the mortgage commitment letter, to mortgage approval, to the final closing documents, Lori always made herself available both via text and call. She was always very informative when answering questions. Lori remained flexible and speedy even when I wanted to make changes to my loan criteria. She also worked tirelessly with my attorney, title company, HOA, and RE agent to get the documentation along the way. Thanks to her, I was able to successfully close within a month! ”
—N Lee from Bedminster, NJ
Most amazing lender!
“My husband and I absolutely LOVED working with Lori! She made sure to get us the lowest rate out of the other lenders we looked at, was always available to help/talk, explained all the lingo to us in very easy terms and helped us tremendously to help get our monthly payment down to something we could afford! Highly recommend her!”
—Evelina Kotsyubuk from Mather, CA
Experienced, professional, responsive - Lori is awesome!
“Lori has closed several loans for us, and we couldn't dream of using anyone else. She has so much industry knowledge and experience. She is happy to explain everything in terms you can understand easily, and is very responsive to all questions. Lori is so easy to work with, and I can't wait to do another loan with her! ”
—Jessica F from Douglasville, GA
...and ANOTHER mortgage close with Lori!!!!
“You really need to read my review if you have any questions about using NBKC Bank and Lori Larson. I now have used Lori for over 15 years for multiple home purchases and refi's. Lori has assisted in ascertaining a mortgage for my niece, both nephew's and my parents. Over 8 mortgages or refi's for me and my family with Lori. She is beyond fantastic to work with; she knows the lending industry inside and out; she is extremely responsive to any questions that you may have, and she works tirelessly for you! If you have any reservations about using an "on-line" lender, rest assured, Lori will ease any concerns you may have. Lori provides 3 different rate lock options so that I may choose what is best for me/my family. In addition, if you do your due diligence and compare the closing costs to some other lenders, you will see that Lori has some of the lowest fees around. Whatever you are looking for in a loan, Lori and her team (Meagan) will work hard to accommodate. My attorney even commented at the close how well it was working with Lori. She is the best around...PERIOD!”
—Daniel Cardella from Albany, NY
