What customers say about Buck Mortgage Solutions
David was absolutely phenomenal!!!! Extremely professional and tentative.
My partner and I were first time homebuyers, which can be such a scary and confusing process.
With David, that was not the case. He took the time to make follow up calls, set up zoom meetings, etc. and really make sure we understood everything, even giving examples of what our mortgage and loan may look like before making final decisions. Not to mention, this guy knew we were on a time crunch, and got us to closing in LESS THAN 1 month!!!!!
Again, hands down, David is the BEST when it comes to your mortgage broker needs!

Acquiring a home presents significant challenges, particularly in my initial home purchase. The bank provided financing with a 25% down payment, which was the extent of their involvement in the process. In contrast, Buck Mortgage demonstrated exceptional assistance in guiding me through the mortgage application process and ensuring that I secured an affordable loan. They provided comprehensive explanations of the necessary paperwork required for underwriting and actively rectified the error in my social security documentation. Their efforts extended beyond mere assistance, enabling my family and me to realize our long-held aspiration of owning our dream home.
We express our sincere gratitude to David and the entire team who played a pivotal role in facilitating our dream home acquisition.
