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

Jeff Kaltz is knowledgeable, very responsive, professional, and personable. We started to work with a large national competitor of BrightSide and found that they lacked knowledge of the refi process... read more specific to Land contracts in the State of Michigan and ended up wasting 45 days of our time only to tell us they had to start the process over. We fired them and got in touch with Jeff at BrightSide. Jeff was familiar with Michigan policies and process and got us a great rate and a 30 day closing!

We highly recommend BrightSide Lending, Jeff was great! We had a buying/selling situation, which was new to us and had SO many questions! Jeff was there every step... read more of the way, from the pre-approval to the final closing, even after that, being there to answer more questions. Amazing customer service!!

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!

From the start, Jeff and the team at BrightSide Lending was very responsive, professional, and very helpful. When I had questions about whether refinancing would make sense for me,... read more Jeff took the time to analyze my situation so I could make the best decision for myself. Once the process was underway, Jeff stayed in touch along the way to let me know what would happen next. Everything was processed quickly and the closing was simple. I would recommend them to anyone for a refinance! Very competitive rates too!

After deciding that refinancing my mortgage was my best option, I researched 4 different lending companies. They all sounded pretty good until we got down to the actual numbers.... read more Bright side Lending was, by far, the best option. Not only was the company convenient and timely they were also the the best financial arrangement I could make. I highly recommend this company and the owner Jeff Kaltz. In doing your research, do yourself a favor and include Brightside Lending.

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!!
