About Don Mencke

"You can have everything in life that you want, if you just help enough other people get what they want."  I have drawn upon Zig Ziglar's inspiration my entire career to consistently and sincerely be of service to others.  

As a Loan Officer with New American Funding, I get to use my relational and analytical skills to help others improve their quality of living by advising them on their home mortgage needs.  

My goal is to provide the best customer service possible along with knowledgeable, unbiased home financing advice.

I would be honored to have an opportunity to work with you!

"Don was amazing at Communication and being up front and honest. We really felt he genuinely wanted to help us find a way to pay off some debt and gave great advice on the different ways to do so. He made sure to keep us updated on all the steps of our loan process and was always quick to respond and help. We appreciate him so much!"

"Don Mencke made our home buying experience the easiest and most fun experience! There were not a lot of homes in our area to choose from with the specs and pricing I was looking for. Don was very patient with us as we waited for the perfect house to come on the market. IT did! Now I finally own a home again. The financing was easy and effortless! The experience as a whole was something I encourage anyone to do! Don will find a way to help with financing and more importantly help to decrease the amount of stress that home buying entails. I could not be more pleased!"

"Don Mencke was amazing! Our area had only a few homes within our price range that were what we were looking for. Don was extrememly patient and allowed us to go on our home buying journey without pressure or feeling like we needed to purchase right now. It took six months but his attention to detail and understanding was so greatly appreciated! Well, we found our home, 2400 square ft, lakefront with all the bells and whistles. It's our forever home and I can not be more pleased! Thank you Don for making our dream a reality! You made our experience delightful and non stressful!"
