About Herb Mason
Advice for New Home Buyers
Take your time and educate yourself on the entire process.
Herb is a singularly outstanding lender
“We just closed on a house in Tennessee. Herb Mason was our lender at NBKC Bank. He was outstanding. He is a very professional and knowledgeable loan originator. He did a great job. He moved our house from the initial offer through to closing in a very short time. The closing was yesterday. Herb moved us from the initial offer through the closing and a very short time with a minimum of pain and hassle. This is the third house that we have closed on and Herb is by far the most outstanding professional, we have worked with in the banking field, I heartily recommend him. ”
—Joel in Tennessee from Spring Hill, TN
Will definitely be recommending Herb to all my friends and family.
“Wow, when I say the reviews for him don't do him enough justice, I mean it. I went with NBKC because of the low fees and low rates but I was not expecting amazing service as well. It was extremely smooth and Herb was very responsive. If I missed anything he responded back within the hour. If I texted or emailed him he would get back to me in under an hour as well. I also had 1 house fall through and he understood and helped me through the process then when I was ready to look again he was right there ready to roll even though it took another 2 months. ”
—Herbert Nguyen from Springfield, VA

My knight in shining armor
“As a first time home buyer, my personal experience was slightly stressful until I found Herb. He was kind, patient, and always answered any and all of my questions. He was honest and you could tell he was very experienced which helped me feel more at ease with such a daunting process. The loan was smooth and efficient, we closed with no issues and Herb was a great communicator. I appreciated him being available after usual work hours on weekends due to my 9-5 work schedule, it helped out a lot. 10/10 would recommend him and look forward to using him on any future loans I may need!”
—Sarah Nguyen from Stafford, TX
