Jeff was great to deal with. I've always done my mortgage directly with a bank so was a little nervous to use Brightside. Jeff was incredibly prompt with his responses... read more and everything he told us was 100% accurately. My wife and I couldn't be happier!

I happened upon BrightSide Lending when owner Jeff Kaltz personally provided a significant donation to a fundraiser that made the difference in helping a veteran avoid home foreclosure. A quick... read more google search to investigate this good deed led me to Jeff's business, BrightSide Lending. Due to some previous paperwork errors on our home purchase, we had been unable to find anyone who could get a refinance done for the past 10 years, but I felt I had nothing to lose in reaching out to at least thank Jeff for his contribution to the veteran. Miraculously, Jeff's perseverance, connections, and knowledge helped us refinance at a significantly lower rate and saved us hundreds of dollars per month. The rate was extremely competitive as were the closing costs. All the while, Jeff's hard work, stellar communication, and prompt replies to questions made the process essentially painless, and we closed on our refinance within 30 days. I cannot recommend BrightSide Lending enough!

My wife and I are moving back to Michigan and found a place on line and after deciding to get it we shopped lenders. After we talked on the phone... read more for 10 minutes with Jeff and doing some research chose Bright Star. Living in Kentucky, we were able to email him our documents and did all of the E signing online. We only met Jeff on closing day. He made everything easy and got us the best rate possible. We would use him again

I can’t recommend Brightside Lending enough! We started our journey to home buying over 2 years ago and then took a pause due to family things. They reached out every... read more so often to see how things were going and let us know they were still there when we were ready. So when I reached out, stephanie remembered me right away and got right to work finding the perfect loan for us. Stephanie Mcknight answered all of our questions, was patient with us, and literally made it such a smooth and easy process by being super detailed and explained in detail anything we weren’t familiar with. She knows her stuff and got it done! Even my wife said she was glad to have met her and will refer! As first time home buyers, I am SO thankful we were able to work with Brightside Lending and Stephanie Mcknight , and if the day comes to do it all again, I wouldn’t go anywhere else! Do yourself a favor and call up Stephanie if you want a team that will work tirelessly to get you exactly what you need!!
