Testimonials

Len Baroch - Client

I recently completed my 203K loan process with Brent Kluge and wanted to personally thank him for all of his hard work and follow through on my behalf. I feel Brent's knowledge of the renovation loan process and professional construction background were the key to his ability in recommending the proper 203K loan. His construction projections and analysis were "spot on". With his expertise and knowledgeable background, I was not only able to complete my renovation project with ease, but afforded me a comfort level through the entire process by quickly responded to any questions that arose and followed through on any commitments relating to my project.

I would strongly recommend Brent to anyone considering buying a home they see has a lot of potential , whether it requires minor or major repairs. Brent can walk you through the entire process from A to Z and help you make the right decisions in getting your dream house. He did for me.

Once again Brent, I sincerely appreciate the effort and time you dedicated into making my project a reality.

Sincerely,

Len Baroch

N. Clegg - Client

Brent has an immense amount of experience and knowledge with regards to the 203k loan process. Many lenders will attempt to take on 203kloans but do not possess the required skills to complete the process successfully. Brent is an example of a consummate renovation loan professional. In the end, the goal of the entire loan process is to end up with the house you want and a great loan package you understand and are comfortable with. Brent helped us accomplish both of these goals with a high degree of professionalism.

Nathan & Kate Cramer - Client

Having Brent handle our 203k rehab brought a level of reassurance to the process that I can't imagine could be found elsewhere. He personally came out to the property before we placed our bid and did an informal overview of what he felt the rehab would involve. His estimate was right in line with what the 203k inspector determined. After our bid was accepted Brent helped us navigate the sea of contractors and let us know when someone was trying to push us into something we didn't need done or was simply overcharging us. In this regard he helped us stay on budget and literally saved us thousands of dollars. The peace of mind that came from knowing we had a truly knowledgeable expert in our corner was also fantastic. Brent clearly knows the 203k process inside and out and works hard to make sure it proceeds smoothly and fairly in his client's favor.

Thanks to Brent, we have a freshly rehabilitated home that we absolutely love (and kept our sanity in the process).

Brent's expertise and knowledge of the 203K far exceeds any other lenders I have worked with. This knowledge helps to prepare the buyers expectations, making the complex process of buying and renovating a home easier and less stressful. His loans have always settled on time, and the buyers have always been happy with Brent's service and hands on approach. I won't use anyone else for renovation financing.

St. Casimirs Savings Bank is one of the strongest community savings banks in the United States. Unfortunately our strength does not allow us to offer the creative renovation programs which Mr. Kluge, represents and offers to his customer base. We refer our customers to Mr. Kluge, when their request for financing and financial services requires renovation financing. I suggest you consider his expertise to coordinate your construction/renovation needs.
