"Chasten and the group at Zin Mortgage group were fantastic. They were honest, articulate and communicative. All things I really appreciated during the home buying process. Chasten set up meetings early and regularly to keep us informed. He gave us a lot of education about our loan options and was pivotal in helping us navigate making the best loan decisions. He had all the information I could ask for and came prepared for every conversation we had. We relocated from outside the KC area and I would frequently reach out to Chasten and his group for their thoughts. It was tremendously helpful getting their insight into a new area. One thing I have to shout out, when we put in an offer on the house we ultimately moved into, the selling agent told us the house got multiple offers and that part of why the sellers accepted our offer was that the selling agent mentioned to them that he'd had business with Chasten at Zin Mortgage Group before and that they were one of the best in the area. I genuinely believe Chasten and his team are part of the reason we got our offer accepted. We were really fortunate to get passed their information when deciding who to do our financing with."

Everyone that we talked to explained everything to us and had very clear communication with us this made us feel extremely comfortable with all of our decisions. From start to closing everything was a pleasant experience."

"We had an outstanding experience working with our mortgage broker Chasten Gerhart! For start to finish, he was friendly, patient, and always willing to take the time to answer our questions. He made what could have been a stressful process feel smooth and manageable. He communication and follow-up were excellent and he consistently kept us informed every step of the way. Most importantly, he made sure we were comfortable and confident with every decision throughout the process. We truly felt like he had our best interests in mind. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a knowledgeable, trustworthy, and dedicated mortgage professional."
