Whenever I had questions, I would text and he would immediately call me to explain in detail. He is extremely knowledgeable in all loans especially the VA loans. I highly recommend Boris for his services.

It's gonna be hard to write this review without sounding like a paid endorsement…read more This man simply meets all expectations without disappointment. I've personal done 2 mortgages with Boris and both times he went above and beyond. He is extremely knowledgeable in his craft and is able to relay that information in layman's terms. There were several instances in the home buying process where he was able to step out of his area of expertise and provide his valuable insight. One such instance saved me 600 dollars. Overall, I will be looking for this man as long as he's in business.

"I have been referring friends and family to Brent Mendelson since my first home purchase in 2014…read more I called him again in 2019 to make sure we were financially sound to finance a new home. He helped me make sure everything was in order and in 2020 Brent helped us finance our second home. Then again in 2021, he helped us get an amazing refinance for a much lower rate. Brent is by far the most knowledgeable, professional and honest mortgage broker I have ever worked with. His personal attention to detail is a great comfort to me. He knows the ins and outs of the VA loan and we received the best possible rate in the craziest of Covid times. I have the utmost confidence recommending Brent Mendelson at Capital Bank knowing that my friends and family are handled with exceptional customer service and professionalism."

Was interested in refinancing so I did some research and also gave Brent Mendelson of Capital Bank…read morea call. Brent was responsive, explained the process, and made it super easy to get a great rate with low costs AND help us to quickly close on our refinance. The only disappointment - we weren't able to beat Brent's 9-day start-to-close record! The Capital Bank website and portal to support the loan process were also user friendly and quite good. If I have ever have home financing needs again I will be sure to look at Capital Bank again and/or call Brent Mendelson. Full disclosure - this is the second loan where I've worked with Brent (first was for first-time home buyer house purchase). If you cannot tell based on my repeat usage I would highly recommend that anyone interested in a home loan reach out to Brent. If you don't have a loan guy, Brent should be your guy!

Poorest customer service I have ever delt with. Ms. Rahman the bank representative was more…read moreconcerned about the fact that I was upset and said a curse word than she was that the bank took my funds online and it cleared for over 3 weeks but because I had not renewed my license my identity could not be confirmed even though I am a use on a family members account at this bank for over 10yrs. It was ridiculous to me that they could take my funds but wouldn't give it back without hell of a lot of back and forth. They could ID me to eventually give me my money back but not to authorize the account. I would say don't bank here they treat you like your a problem a number not a human being with medical issues that make it hard to get around. Ms Rahman was representing the bank not the customers I'm not a person to her I am a policy that must be followed without acception. They said no bank would open an account without ID yet 18yr old daughter opened her first account without a driver's license with CAPITAL ONE BANK. I PROMISE YOU THESE PEOPLE COULD CARELESS ABOUT THE INDIVIDUAL. The manager Mr Emilio was patronizing at best and offered no real help other than to say "it's not my policy it's the banks policy and I have no controll over that" so smug in his attempt to placate me he just kept explaining the same thing in circles. I wouldn't go to this bank to deposit my dogs excrement just stay clear so you won't have the same frustration.1
