I did not end up lending from Rate.com, but Brett is a class act. I shared with him the details of my other offers, and he freely pointed out that another offer was better than is. It's clear he's in this to help people make the best decision for themselves. Thanks Brett!

Brett is very helpful and quick! He responded to all our questions professionally so we felt very comfortable using him and Rate to buy our first home. Brett is extremely knowledgable and made the process as easy as it could be.

Brett and his team were fantastic to work with! Brett checked in with us regularly while we were in the selling process and then buying process of our homes. He always explained things well, and followed it up with an email summary. He took the time to get to know us a little bit, so we felt like we were working with a friend rather than a company. Thank you for all the help, support, and willingness to answer our endless questions!

Rachel K.

Jeremy M.

We worked with Brett for our first home buying experience and we're so happy he was recommended to us! He's knowledgeable and easy to work with. He was even willing to call us on a Sunday to help us plan for a potential offer and down payment. We cannot recommend Brett enough and will definitely be looking forward to working with him again in the future.

I have worked with Brett in a professional capacity for years, but recently had the utmost pleasure of having him help my husband and I on the purchase of a second home, and the client-side experience was just as top-notch as when I work with him as a Realtor. From application to closing took 25 days and it was smooth sailing with great communication throughout. Thank you, Brett!

Sam E.

My husband and I have bought and refinanced several properties and this was by far our smoothest transaction. Brett Borne, our loan advisor, was easy to work with, organized and professional. He got us an amazing rate and we will definitely work with and refer him again!

Marcy S.

Working with Brett was a dream. He was friendly, responsive, and knowledgeable. Our refinancing process was quick and easy, with Brett keeping us updated every step of the way. Highly recommend!

Beth K.

If I could give 6 stars, I would! I was not planning on purchasing a house but when I came across a listing I loved and received an accepted offer, Brett Borne and his team did EVERYTHING to make it happen! Brett was patient with all of my questions, explained things to me in a way that helped me understand, researched loan options available to me and secured me a GREAT rate and was there every step of the way. Buying a house is stressful enough as it is, but having Brett helping me, relieved me of so much anxiety!

I worked with Brett and he was excellent. He was very informative and helped guide every step of the way. He was also very responsive. I could always count on him to get back to me and answers any questions I may have. Overall a great experience and would recommend him to anyone.

Sydnee H.

Brett was extremely knowledgeable and responsive for any questions. I knew exactly nothing about the mortgage process and he was always able to help explain whatever I needed to know. I would very gladly contact Brett again for any refinancing or new mortgage needs.

Chloe W.

Brett was super knowledgeable, and always very responsive. He talked me through many first time homebuyer questions and patiently helped me through the process. Great experience overall and would highly recommend working with this team!

Natalie E.

Brett was amazing to work with during my first home buying experience. With the real estate market being so crazy, it was necessary to have someone like Brett on my side. Brett and his team are very knowledgeable and they always provided with me the guidance and assistance I needed through this process. One of the most valuable things of working with Brett was his availability. He was always readily available no matter what day of the week (or weekend) it was and no matter what time of day. I had debated getting loan services through my bank and I am so happy I didn’t. Brett made the entire process smooth and stress free! Highly recommend working with Brett and his team for all your needs!

Brett was incredible to work with. As first time home buyers, we knew very little about the process, but Brett was there to help with everything we needed. He was extremely efficient with processing everything on his end, and helped us secure our loan in an amazing time frame to get the home we loved. We would recommend him to anybody looking for an amazing lender!

Brett was amazing to work with. As a first time home buyer Brett was able to provide help and explain everything each step. He helped make the home buying process feel stress free and smooth!

Ross S.

Brett was extremely friendly, timely, professional, and went above and beyond for us on our home loan. We searched for nearly a year and he was always there for us or replied back in minutes. He crunched numbers and helped us compare options anytime we asked. His numbers were always the most competitive as well opposed to other lenders.

Chad H.

Brett Borne has been very easy to work with. He kept us well informed throughout the entire process and was in constant contact when we ran into issues with the many details of the loan. We would recommend him highly to anyone looking to secure a loan.

Dawn J.

I'm a real estate agent and Brett is great to work with. He is always on track to ensure everything is ready well before closing date. He is quick to answer all of my clients questions. I couldn't ask for a better experience

Hugo G.

Brett did an excellent job closing our house quickly. Coming back to Wisconsin from out of state without local jobs was a challenge, but Brett navigated every detail to ensure an on time (actually 2 week early) closing. We signed most documents on the side of a highway, so having a trustworthy guide was priceless!

Melissa T.

We were referred to Brett earlier in the year but couldn't get a rate that made the refinance worthwhile. Months later, he reached out to us after seeing a rate below our target and in the end, was able to get us an awesome rate! Easy to work with and professional. Thank you Brett!

David M.

Brett Borne helped me close my first home loan. I had many questions and he helped me late hours and early mornings to answer my questions with the most patience and kindness a person could receive. He closed my loan in an unremarkable short amount of time. He made the process extremely easy. I could not of had a more amazing experience. I did not know anything about buying a home and he truly guided me and helped me understand. Thank you for EVERYTHING!

Melinda G.

The experience we had was terrific! From the moment we spoke with Brett, our loan officer, to our closing day, it was smooth sailing. Brett’s guidance and tenacity was incredible; he answered all of our questions immediately and he was extremely helpful. He also accommodated us via electronic means, as we were in a different city. Definitely recommend!

Barb N.

Hands down, Brett Borne is the best lender I've worked with. Thorough, educational, communication always comes at the right time. He coaches his clients through the process, explaining his every move which makes them feel more comfortable and at ease. He works with the programs available to him and helps the client choose the best for them. I can't thank him enough for all his hard work and dedication. As a realtor, I'll continue to encourage clients to give him a shot every time.
