About Nicholas Payne
Advice for New Home Buyers
Take your time and do you research. Picking the right lender can be the difference in a pleasant experience or a nightmare.
Excellent service
“Nick was always extremely responsive and available for calls. Had some issues at closing beyond our control and Nick was able to keep everything on course.”
—leighton lien from Westport, WA
Best mortgage process ever
“Nick is simply the best! He did everything possible to put my mind at ease and remove all the stress from this process. He worked aggressively to get our loan ready quickly…early mornings, late nights, weekends didn’t matter, he was always responsive and working in the background with the realtor and others to get the loan done. As a result, we were ready to close in 2 weeks with a VA loan! The best home buying experience I’ve had, go with NBKC and Nick if you want the best deal and the best customer service!”
—Matt from Crestwood, KY

—mmeador6139 from Independence, MO
Responsive, Informative, and Fast
“I completed a VA loan application on 07/11 and I had a sale contract for 08/10. I knew that this might be pushing it in terms of time constraints. Nick assured me that we could get it done and we did! He was very responsive through the whole process and kept an open line of communication the whole time. He put in a lot of work to get us to close on time and it worked! Couldn't be happier”

Nick gives the best all the way around loan service
“I had an excellent experience working with Nick Payne. Nick helped me with a brand new home purchase. The builder was making it extremely difficult when I decided to switch lender within 30 days of closing, Nick handled the builder with exceptional professionalism and patience. We closed the loan smoothly and on time. Nick gave a great rate, was quick to respnding to emails, usually within minutes; he is courteous and a pleasure to work with. I know who to call when I shop for my next loan or refi.”
—sherry C. from Saint Cloud, FL
A true Knight in shining armor!
“There are not enough positive words in the dictionary to cover all the good things I'd like to say about working with Nick. Always positive, quick to reply, professional yet warm and friendly. This was the first time I've ever had to deal with a lending institution and even though he was out of my region, I'm so glad I found him. I recommend him with my highest compliments. I wish I could leave 25 stars, not just five!”
—Sally J from Westport, NY
