Bryan is awesome! What we thought would just be a meeting about what kind of house we can afford, turned into and hour and half meeting that singlehandedly changed my wife and my entire financial situation. Bryan took the time to educate us and gave us a clear plan to pay off our debts and in a few short months we were able to buy our dream home. What is most important is that I never felt like Bryan was just pushing us because he wanted us to close on any house. We felt like friends and he was giving us genuine advice. He even went above and beyond and gave us tips for financial security for the future. He had us super prepared for the entire closing process and was readily available for all of our questions, no matter when we texted or called him. I honestly believe he is the best in the business and will be recommending him to all my friends and ... Read More

Talk about professionalism and getting straight to the point! I came into the office to meet with Bryan so overwhelmed with so many questions for me to buy my first home. After meeting with him all my questions were answered without even having to ask them and got a lot of good info I had no idea it even existed, took the time to explain everything step by step and how it all works. Gave me a good game plan and things I need to do to get the best rate possible and finally be able to buy my first home for myself and my children. Thanks to him I drove home after that meeting with a big smile and a great plan. Definitely a great ... Read More

tldr; When rates come down, I'll be refinancing with Bryan at Preferred Rate! Bryan is very talented, experienced, and creative. He offers a lot of perspective and was an invaluable team member alongside my realtor and attorney. He is skilled at structuring different loan products, offering different solutions, and packaging numbers in a way that makes sense. Additionally, he has a wide network in the real estate world (he has been in real estate, commercial and/or residential, for over two decades), and was the person who introduced me to the realtor I selected for this process. Bryan's business is 100% referral (I can't confirm that obviously, but I was referred to Bryan by a wealth advisor friend, so I believe it!), further underscoring the importance of network. When selecting a lender, it's also important to select someone who can get results within their organizations. Bryan has a lot of tenure within Preferred Rate, so when things are tied up in internally, he knows the levers to turn to get results for his ... Read More

My husband and I are 22&23 and first-time homebuyers, so we know absolutely nothing about buying a home and we felt so overwhelmed at first. Then a coworker of mine told me about Bryan so we went to meet him. He was so amazing, he took us through the entire process of buying a house and made sure we understood every step of the way. Buying a house is a long process but he made sure to let us know that we're not alone and he is here to help and guide us the whole way through. We are so excited to start this journey with ...

This is the 2nd home Bryan has helped me with financing and it was magnificent. Whenever there was a problem or issue with the loan process, he was able to solve the problem with his incredible wealth of knowledge about loan guidelines. I lived 250 miles away and the new tool he's using for uploading docs was as easy as taking a picture and submitting it - all on my phone. I went through a divorce and name change during the loan process and he took care of all the paperwork needed as well as communicating the change with the realtor and the title company so I didn't have to do anything. We were able to close three weeks early and I am very grateful to Bryan for helping me get the home of my ... Read More

I would like to express my utmost gratitude for the outstanding service provided by Bryan throughout the entire process. He went above and beyond in assisting us and providing valuable advice regarding the real estate market for buying and selling homes. Bryan was extremely thorough and patient, ensuring that we understood every detail and consideration. Thanks to his guidance, we successfully obtained approval for our mortgage loan. We will definitely continue working with him to explore future benefits and potentially secure a better interest rate from the bank. Overall, Bryan's expertise and dedication have made this experience truly ... Read More
