    Everything was good with BNC, but their reps are very slow and there was lack of communication. Still, everything was on time. It was just they never gave me any updates. But then suddenly, everything went smooth. So, I'm happy with them. BNC has the best rates. The other company was going to give me for 4.4%, and they gave me 3.3. So, it's a lot of money they saved me. I'm happy with everything provided.

    I enjoyed working with BNC very much. Victor was a great asset that the bank has. I really enjoyed getting to know him a little bit and working with him. He made things very easy and I really appreciated that. Vic did an excellent job. I live in Battle Ground, Washington, and Vic is in Kansas City, so the distance made it a little difficult. But I'm kind of an old-fashioned, face-to-face, handshake kind of guy, so it was just me that was troubled by it. But the process was very good and efficient.

    The application process was very easy. I credit the ease to the loan officer I worked with. Vic was really great and very responsive. There were some repetitive actions in the portal, but I didn't have to do that. Vic would just say, "Oh, nope. I already have the information. I can do that part for you." So he really did a great job making the process easy for me and helping me navigate through all the requirements.

    We did an equity program with BNC where we took the value out of the home so that we could do some home improvement. I really like them a lot. They did a great job and I didn't really need to do much. I talk to my loan rep all the time and he is great. He definitely helped me out with reducing the points. He was super honest and he had my best interest in mind. We're actually putting the money back into the house so that the equity would get higher for the house.

    Having done this kind of thing before, I already had an idea. There are going to be gaps in terms of what BNC can do. They're going to order your credit rating then you'll be getting this need for paperwork then nothing. It's on the mortgage company. My rep did a great job communicating that with me. In terms of setting expectations for customers, that was really good. BNC was very organized in terms of what we needed and there was a list. Their portal really helped too. I was able to get the list then forward the documents to them. The uploading process was really easy. We had a glitch in one of the documents but we just sent it to the loan officer working on it and they were able to put it in.

    I got five quotes and BNC Bank had the best terms. They were quite efficient too. For the application that BNC used in terms of what documentation was needed for me and the ability for me to upload those onto the site, the technology made it almost seamless. BNC Bank cut the existing rate that I had been getting in half and closing was fairly straightforward.

    Special kudos to my direct lender. He understood that my rate lock had expired and he worked with me. He knew it wasn't my fault. It was an open door and it was the seller of the property who caused us to eat up almost three weeks of time. My direct lender was aggressive in terms of getting those people to respond. He was giving daily updates and he went above and beyond.

    BNC Bank's price for the fees for refinance were lower than other people's. The application went good. The initial rep, Jennifer, was somehow responsive. If she missed one time that I called, she will pick up the next time. The only issue was sometimes when I contacted the other people, they didn't pick up. They took action but as a customer, I needed a response as soon as possible. Maybe for other people, they let it go for one or two days but it doesn’t make me feel good. If they agree from the beginning to work as agent, they should be responsive to their customers.

    I feel a little bit bad that BNC Bank sold my mortgage to another corporation. I understand this is normal but the point that makes me so disappointed was after I finished with BNC Bank and I started contacting Homepoint, the new company that bought my mortgage, I discovered that the home insurance policy information didn't move from BNC Bank to Homepoint. BNC Bank sold the mortgage but they didn't pass the information about the home insurance company. I did it myself.

    The reps seemed like they were very knowledgeable, professional and informative. The application process was pretty straightforward and it didn't feel as complicated or invasive as it did. The process overall went a lot smoother than it did with our first house loan. It went pretty well. The only issue that I've had with them was during post-process. It was kind of a confusing piece of thing.

    BNC Bank is a broker. So as soon as you finish the loan process, BNC is going to sell that loan to a bank that will facilitate it going forward. I knew that from the beginning. But what happened was I had come into it after we had finished all of the refinance process, and they said, “Okay. Now you're going to make your first mortgage payment to BNC Bank. And then after that, your loan is going to be probably facilitated over to this bank where you'll set up everything on their portal, and you'll be making payments to them going forward."

    I sent my payment to BNC Bank but after two weeks, they still hadn't cashed that mortgage check. So then I had to call them and they had said, “Oh, yeah. Well, your loan had already been sold over to the other bank and so we just forwarded your check over there.” I had to contact the new bank and make sure that they got my check. They told me, “Oh, yeah. We got your check but we have to have BNC endorse it. So we had to send the check back to BNC." So now, it's been 19 days since I've sent the first mortgage payment, and that check has still not been cashed by anybody. They've marked it paid on time on the mortgage thing. But I had anticipated that it would go smoother. The whole rest of the process was so smooth that it surprises me that this part of it isn't more streamlined.

They got me at 3% and I presented them with another lender at 2.87. So, they matched that. But in matching that, they upped something else. I said, "What is this?" Then, BNC came in at 2.75. There were no arguments. The closing costs were much less. In fact, I ended up getting back because of escrows as much as the whole closing cost me. So, it was like a net zero to do this.

    BNC will most likely get you approved if you have all your ducks in a row. But they'll do a last push to make it happen. With the appraisal and the one where they check if everything is okay, that big pile of paper, it was almost seven grand down. On the day of closing, they were like, "Oh, sorry, we can't get you approved." And I'm like, "This is ridiculous. After all this money, now you're gonna tell me it's not." The rep was like, "Yeah, I'm sorry, but your husband, he's self-employed, and we need more information."

    I told them that my husband was self-employed and that he makes good money and he pays his taxes. So, I didn't know why BNC would not be able to do things. I called our mortgage loaner, Julie who was a lifesaver. She was like, "I'm going to get the ball rolling." And that day, she got the ball rolling and we closed about a week after.

    This is the fourth time I've worked with BNC National Bank. The agent that I work with is phenomenal. She’s flexible. She keeps me updated. She is above par on all levels. She does all the legwork, makes things happen, and sends me the paperwork to sign. So, with BNC, I get better rates, better service and better results. On this last refinance, I did attempt to go through my local bank, and their rates are not good even though they’re a credit union. They were a pain. They wanted to charge me for my own credit report. So, I went back to BNC. They charged me to pull my credit but as part of the whole system, they don't charge me upfront. They waive a bunch of fees for veterans. So, I'm not gonna find a cheaper opportunity.

    Through the application, somebody reaches out to you and says, “Hey, got your thing. Do the stuff. Email these documents to continue processing.” It's all routine. It's the same crap you got to do whenever you refinance or finance anything. However, as I've used the same agent repeatedly now, the application process is a phone call. She goes, “All right. I'll run the numbers and send you an email.” They do all the things.

    On the first couple times I used them, I had my own title company, so I went there to do the closing. The last time, I used their title company and they sent them out to me to my residence to sign the papers for the closing. I can't ask for more than I could make a phone call, refinance two homes at the same time, and they get it processed. BNC is good. You can't ask for a simpler process, especially a repeat customer to make a phone call and make things happen. As far as the application, it’s their standard online application. There's no trying to charge me upfront like the other bank was for my credit report.

    Overall, it was a good experience. I had no clue at first but once I asked them the question regarding the next steps, things started to come together. But BNC could’ve given me more of what to expect. They could've provided some type of checklist of what was gonna happen at the beginning and over the next few months and the things that I would be putting together so I could've had them ready. They depend on their online service more than communicating with the customer. They should have a little more communication with the customer but they would just send me an email.

However, there were a couple of issues that came up towards the end, that the attorney had not completed some of the filings and there was a concern that he wouldn't get the paperwork back to them in time for us to make our closing and be able to have the house. So, the next day, they would deliver all of our household goods. BNC said they would keep somebody there later than normal to finalize everything to make sure that they met the federal guidelines for the number of days. Also, Mike reassured me that they would do everything possible in their end to make sure that we met our closing date. So, I felt they took care of me.

    I loved the lady that I talked to at BNC. I also called two other lenders but then, BNC gave me the best rate and their rep, Crystal, gave me lender credits. Besides that, Crystal was very proactive. But the underwriting of BNC Bank needs work. It should be something quick and painless. Crystal forwarded over emails and I had sent emails over to their underwriting reps. But instead of verifying that they received the emails, they kept asking for the same documentation. That was okay when you deal with someone that has time in their hands, but that was not the case for somebody like me and my family.

    I sent everything the first day that the underwriting rep was asking for. I sent most of all these particular documents and the ones that I did not send, I put an explanation. But they kept asking for them or they said they never received the documents. Then, I had to forward over the email again. Now if you're in underwriting, that means you have to be very nitpicky and you have to have attention to detail. So I couldn't understand how an underwriting department would miss emails like that.

    BNC Bank also needs to make every possible effort to contact the person they’re working with once they sell the mortgage loan. Even if the loan is closed, it would be good to get a call from Crystal or somebody from BNC Bank saying that your mortgage had been sold to Company Y and that they're sending you an email with the instructions on how to find your loan number as well as how to contact them. Steps like that would make it so much easier for everyone. In my case, I was able to figure that out but it took me 15 minutes to look it up and call people . But they already knew that information and all they had to do was draft up an email about it. Other than that, I'm going to buy another house in California and I'm going to use BNC again.

    I've done two refinances within the last six to eight months, and working with Jennifer from BNC was excellent. She always keeps me on my toes, makes sure that I stay on task, and that the people behind the scenes are staying on task too. So, it worked out well. Great prices and low fees. So, I couldn't be happier with that. It went so smooth for me.

    I'm extremely satisfied with BNC's whole process. The pre-approval took a good six weeks before we put an offer on the house. But once we put an offer on the house, the process took three weeks to complete. The rep I had, Linda, went way and above what was expected of her. She did an outstanding job and I wish there were some more good things I can say about her. I'm also happy with the terms I got and I would highly recommend Linda to my friends.

    The only thing that was weird was that right after we closed, I got the letter in the mail about PennyMac owning the loan. It would have been nice to get a heads-up that that was happening like, "Oh, by the way, we're selling your mortgage to another company." Other than that, it was a good experience.

    BNC National Bank had the best rates. Also, their website was the most user-friendly overall, and the most responsive. The team reached out right away. They called and helped me out with the steps. And I had a nice representative helping me out. However, It took a while to figure out how to actually pay for the mortgage once everything was done. BNC Bank never told me they sold my debts to someone else. And I was lost trying to find out how to even pay for my mortgage, because I was not given any customer number or any information on how to actually pay it. I had to make a couple of calls until I found out my debt was transferred to Mr. Cooper. And Mr. Cooper didn't give me any information at all. I was a little upset.

He was also very knowledgeable and he got through the loan pretty quickly, which was not a really easy loan. So, I appreciated his help.

    The application process was labor-intensive with a lot of scanning and emailing, but it was fine. I would have gone with a local bank that I could've just walked into and just handed them stuff, but they required 20% down and I didn't have that kind of cash flow at the time. So, with BNC requiring less, made the situation better. I was really happy with the way everything went. I've already given their name to another friend of mine that was looking at buying a house.

    BNC had an actual person that you could talk to throughout the process, who would explain everything to make the process easier. Then they had somebody else who helped with gathering all the paperwork that was necessary. Charles always offered to answer questions, even if it was a weekend. They had really good customer service. The application was 20 minutes. The underwriting process would have been faster, but I had some back and forth about some documentation. But it wasn't very onerous. I would highly recommend BNC.

    I just called BNC's 1800 number and I luckily got Shawna, which was the best thing that could have ever happened to me. This is my first home purchase and I did it without a Realtor. So, I was really flying blind. Had it not been for Shawna, I would have struggled. She's a powerhouse. When you speak to them, they're just a wealth of knowledge and you know that they've been in the industry for quite some time. I got 2.8%, which was my rate. She linked me up with a title company and we have mobile notaries. It was a really smooth process. She was Johnny-on-the-spot. We closed in less than 30 days. Everything about it just couldn't have been more perfect. It was a great experience all the way around.

    I chose BNC National Bank because they gave me a better interest rate than anybody else. Their rep was the best guy I dealt with. When I talked to him about why my loan got transferred to a different bank already, he said, "You go through that when you're buying a house." But I didn't even make my first payment and I got transferred to another lender. Every time the reps called me and told me what they needed, I got to them and got it right back. And they gave me a great compliment on doing that, because they said other people take three, four or five days giving them information, but I got it to them as soon as possible. And they commended me about doing that.

    I just met Vic and the bank that he was with had this super low rate for veterans and nobody else could match it. I have a friend who is in the mortgage business and I ran about him. And it was a local bank. He said, "Oh, heck no. I can't even touch that. You need to take it." That has been 10 years ago. And everything I've done, I've done with Vic since. He is phenomenal. I'm 51 years old and I have refinanced quite a few times. I've owned other property. I have never had an experience like I've had with Vic. And I won't go to anywhere else.

    There have even been times when I considered things and Vic told me, "Hey, the market is not right right now. Let's do this." He has my utmost respect and trust. I've not had another mortgage officer that has been more trustworthy and honest. And when he tells me he's gonna do something, he typically exceeds my expectations. I would highly recommend BNC Bank and Vic, and all the people that work with him too. Just an awesome experience.

    When I found BNC National Bank and read the good reviews, I contacted someone and from start to finish, it was really good. Paige was awesome, very transparent with fees, the rate that I qualified for. She was very helpful and it made my home buying experience better than most. What I enjoyed the most is her getting back to me in a timely manner and being straightforward in answering my questions instead of dancing around them. And she explained everything with the mortgage being transferred and was upfront about how all that would work out.

    I had such a good experience with BNC and I had a coworker who was also buying a home at the same time. I recommended BNC to my coworker, then her and her husband ended up switching over. They got a better interest rate and they had a success story as well in terms of having a really good experience, so I was happy about that.
