Their communication with us and what we needed to do on our end was amazing.

Relocating from the west coast to a new community...to a city we only visited for a few hours was a daunting process. However, our realtor Brittney LaHayne and the Benchmark team made the process seamless. We had looked at two other lenders and the quality of responsiveness, attentiveness and enthusiasm was unmatched. It was an easy decision for us to choose Benchmark! I loved the videos, the quick responses via text, phone and email. We are first time buyers, but never were made to feel stupid or left in the dark. Each step was so clear, and honestly having people who were so enthusiastic for us, and encouraging really made us feel welcomed to Omaha and helped us feel like we made the right choice. Thank you so much Rachel - you really set the bar high - we could not imagine doing this process without you!!!!

If you are going through divorce and trying to buy a home (even if you are a "normal" home buyer) -…read moredo yourself a favor and DO NOT look any further than Mortgage Specialists! Not only did they deliver knocking it out of the park, they made it almost effortless on my part! My situation: third home I've purchased over years, going through the divorce process without final decree, hectic schedule balancing work/life, selling a home at the same time, repairs needed to home, kids and activities. I don't think Mortgage Specialists do themselves enough service in advertising to people in my situation of going through a divorce. I started my pre-approval process with a "big bank" which has serviced all my previous mortgages and/or refinances in one form or another over the years, and never had problems with them (smooth in fact). The pre-approval questionnaire for me was easy - I make enough and my credit is excellent - they said no problems getting me approved. Then underwriting happens and that is where the divorce will stop your approval in its tracks. For two months I sat in underwriting at the "big bank" trying to get over the hurdle of having a "separation agreement" calling out my duty/lack thereof for child support and alimony. Without this, I would not go further. I tapped into my personal network and connections and approached 3 other lenders and all threw up the same roadblock on financing and not being able to approve without the divorce decreed separation agreement. Then, I was referred to Brent @ Mortgage Specialists. From the moment that we started the conversation, Brent assured me that all hope shouldn't be lost. Taking the time for me to gather my own documentation out of the picture, Mortgage Specialist had the pre-aproval done in less than one day. Then they sent my file to underwriting and a couple days later I was approved with a valid offer letter in hand. Weeks of hopelessness with other companies resolved in a matter of days/week with Mortgage Specialists. Brent was the "face man" for Mortgage Specialists, but I interacted with the rest of his team as well. Every person and every interaction was met with little to no effort from me - they walked me through / held my hand in the whole process. Their communication and response time was timely, a few examples of a couple hour response time even after business hours and on weekends! Brent even met me at closing to shake my hand and offer any more service than they did up to that point. I wish my previous home purchases would have been handled by these guys, I will not look any further in the future. From start to finish, they FAR exceeded any sort of expectation I could've ever had. Awesome job, and thank you to them!

I just hung-up. As I was speaking to another loan officer at another company they finally returned my call.
