"From the first conversation until closing, Kevin was amazing. He went above and beyond to ensure that our loan was processed and ready prior to closing with no issues. His professionalism and knowledge about VA loans is what comforted me and my wife that we were in good hands.
This was our fourth home buying experience and by far the best, because we chose Benchmark as our lender. Thanks again for making our dream home experience a great one!"

"Kevin has been wonderful and so very helpful even with all the glitches along the way. He is very knowledgeable and patient. He took a lot of effort on his part to find the best solution for us. It would have been a nightmare without him on our side."

"In helping veterans, Kevin Murphy is excellence in being successful step-by-step in guiding the veteran in owning their own home. Kevin is not only the best with a positive attitude in the mortgage industry but so is his team. As a veteran and a new homeowner I recommend Kevin and his team highly!"

"Chris Moore is outstanding and such a pleasure to deal with. He did a fantastic job helping me and my husband purchase a home. As you know, purchasing a home can be very stressful. He made the process much easier than I ever would have expected. Chris was very courteous throughout the process and was always prompt in getting back to me whenever I had any questions or concerns. He is a wonderful representative of Benchmark, and the company should be very proud to have him as one of their employees. I will definitely recommend Benchmark to others because of my pleasant experience with Chris."

"Kevin was professional, pleasant and dedicated throughout the process of securing my loan. I got a great rate through the Texas Vet VA Loan and Kevin worked tirelessly with me to cover every requirement. I moved into my new home yesterday and am so grateful for the hard work and dedication Kevin displayed securing my loan. Thank you Kevin!"

"Chris (and his wonderful processor Becky) handled the financing of our new home recently. Exactly 21 days after my first call to Chris we were "cleared to close". Both Chris and Becky were very knowledgeable about the VA loan process. The transaction was so smooth and the communication was excellent. Every question was answered promptly and every concern was addressed. We closed ahead of schedule with no surprises.
I highly recommend Chris Moore as a loan officer and Benchmark as a company."

"Chris Moore and his team at Benchmark are amazing! He made a very stressful life changing event a walk in the park. Chris is very knowledgeable, super friendly and easy to work with. I can't imagine working with any other company! My fiancé and I are eternally grateful for our new home to start our lives together!"

"With a mortgage lender you want someone who can communicate. Herb has been an excellent communicator, always answers my phone calls (even after hours), and even makes sure to send necessary documents to my Realtor as needed. That has been a life saver.
I've been house shopping for a while and put in a few contracts. Each time Herb has been very quick to create preapproval letters as needed for my realtor to include with my offer. He has typically gotten the paperwork to us in an hour or less!
I'd highly recommend Herb to anyone house shopping. He takes the headache out of a lot of this and makes buying a home just a little less stressful."

"Herb and his staff are top notch! It was the easiest loan yet and that includes VA loans in the past. He is always working for his clients and I cannot say enough kind things about him and the overall company.
Everything moved quickly and we were never worried about making our dates or not knowing where we stood at any time. I would recommend Herb to anyone and everyone who needs a loan!"

"Herb was a great help to us through every step of the mortgage loan process. He took time out of his schedule to answer any questions I had, quell any worries and keep me updated on the process. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience."

"Herb Ziev is one of the best lenders I have ever worked with. In this busy Dallas market we need constant communication with the lender and Herb has always been there for me and my clients. My clients can’t sing his praises enough.
He closes on time (most of the time he is ready to close a week before the closing date), he answers all my clients questions and addresses all their concerns thoroughly, and I know that in a multiple offer situation Herb will go above and beyond to ensure my clients’ offers stand above any of the others when it comes to financing.
I would highly recommend Herb Ziev to anybody looking for a lender!”

"I had a wonderful experience using Herb as a lender for my clients. The communication was off-the-charts excellent and included all parties. By the time we got to the closing table, my buyers had already reviewed the final numbers and were well prepared.
Herb made it easy, kept everyone informed and was always pleasant and professional. Truly a great lending experience!"

"Herb delivers 'world-class' customer service! Herb was originally recommended to me by my realtor and I was so impressed with his hands-on approach to mortgage banking, that I engaged him again for assistance with refinancing of a family members’ mortgage.
I cannot say enough about his professionalism and quality of customer service. I will use him again for my future needs!"

"Herb comes with my highest recommendations. He is always looking for new ideas to assist his clients. I admire him for his creative work and his willingness to 'give first'. You would be doing yourself a favor to align yourself with Herb as I have."

"Herb really helped me with the recent refinance of my house. He kept me apprised of the current interest rates, and when they reached a point that it made sense for me to refinance, he walked me through the whole process. He was flexible in working with my crazy work schedule.
Everything was handled promptly and professionally. It was a pleasure working with him. I would recommend him to anyone looking to purchase or refinance their house."

"Herb was recommended to us by our real estate agent when we purchased a home in Dallas in December 2009/January 2010. Herb recommended financing that we hadn’t considered, which was of great advantage to us. He was available by telephone and up to speed on the process throughout. He personally attended the closing and made sure that everything was handled correctly.
Between my husband and I, we have purchased six to eight homes in various locations around the country and have never had such good service."
