"Kit was amazing from start to finish! Our first conversation was filled with uncertainty due to my low credit but Kit reassured me that we can still be successful in buying our first home. He gave me some tips and advice to help build my credit and with his guidance, I was able to achieve the credit score needed to get approved for a loan in about 2 months. He would constantly follow up with me and gave me more tips as time went on which definitely gave me a sense of hope that things are going to work out in the end. Not only was he focused on the loan portion of the process but he wanted to make sure that my overall finances were headed to the right direction. He gave us constant reassurance through the process and got us where we need to be. Not only that, he was the reason why we were able to get $25K sellers concession to help out with our closing cost which was amazing! Overall, he embodies the definition of what a true professional is and we are very thankful for all the assistance that he’s given us!"

"As a first time homebuyer, Kit made the process very easy for us. He took away any fears that we had, as buying a home especially for the first time can be very stressful.

Aside from being very knowledgeable and good at what he does, Kit is an even better human being as he always has your best interest at heart. - The Santos Ohana"

"Kit was incredible and truly made the process feel seamless on our end. He was available and responsive any time we had a question, needed clarification or numbers, or wanted to run something by him. He is a wealth of knowledge AND kind and personable. Not only would I recommend him and use him again, I would follow him if he left and went to another company- that's how much confidence I feel in him. He was recommended by our agent, and I understand why he is her go-to lender. Mahalo for your patience and knowledge!!"

"From day 1 we knew Kit was an "above-and-beyond" kind of guy. He called us on an evening outside of normal office hours and although he didn't know us, he spent over 2 hours with us discussing our situation and taking his time to get to know my wife and I. From that first conversations his efforts went far beyond expectations. He did everything he could to help us make the best of our situation. He rode the "Rollercoaster" with us while I interviewed several times for a job and he supported us through it. He is just absolutely interested in our lives and just so genuine. We worked with Kit for about 2 months while we searched for a home. When we finally found a home, he stayed with us right to closing. We finally met him at closing and knew from all of our communications that he was no longer our loan officer. He is Ohana. Thank you so much for everything!"

"Kit from the beginning was very sincere, patient, efficient, explained every concern and questions I had. Made me feel appreciated as a person and as a Veteran. He is a person that I trust completely. Being that I am a disabled Veteran with PTSD, trusting in someone is very difficult. When it came to Kit, it took me only \"ONE\" conversation to convince me that I could trust him to help me purchase a home and trust him as a person. Kit is the complete package. Hope he gets a raise and be commended for his good work."
