Richard Veldman - Benchmark Mortgage Eagle Run Dr, Grand Rapids

I have had MULTIPLE mortgages through Benchmark Mortgage and worked with Rick each time. I have had only great experiences with Rick and his entire team. ALWAYS honest (almost to a fault) and extremely reliable. I don't plan to use anyone else as long as Rick is still doing this line of work. Thanks Benchmark! Thanks, Rick! Really appreciate all of the smooth experiences I have had with you! Recommended highly and without reservations!

Financed two houses with Rick. Rick is incredibly knowledgeable, personable, and arguably can answer a call anytime anywhere. We closed our first house in under two weeks start to finish. You get a competitive rate if not best and a full explanation of the process. If you’re a first time home buyer Rick is a must! If your seasoned you should drop the other guy and go with him!

Rick and his team were remarkable to work with! Everything went through so much quicker then what I anticipated! This was the second time we have used Benchmark and we couldn’t have asked for a better place and people to work on our mortgage. 150% recommend to anyone! If we end up buying again sometime in our future, we will use them again! Thanks for all of your help Benchmark!

Rick and his team at Benchmark Mortgage are fantastic! They helped make our first experience with the mortgage process easy and stress free. They are responsive, kind, and provide great service. We highly recommend them.

Having purchased two houses with Benchmark's help, I'd recommend them 100%. Rick is personable and timely with his communications. His staff also knows their stuff. You can rest easy knowing that Benchmark will be handling things for you.

I worked with Richard on my mortgage in 2019, he was active through emails and phone calls the entire time,he was attentive to my needs and questions and really made the entire process as seamless as possible. I've since recommended him to several friends and family members who were looking at buying houses themselves.

Benchmark handled our home purchase as well as our recent refinance, and we couldn't be happier with the straightforward service we've received. I felt comfortable and well informed at every step of the process, with Rick going out of his way to make the process transparent while offering advice free of any sales pressure. I never hesitate to recommend Rick and Benchmark, and they will absolutely be the first one's I call for any future mortgage needs.

Rick and the rest of the team have been absolutely fantastic to work with on numerous occasions and I'm looking forward to continuing our relationship as more deals come up. More than just a lender, Rick has been someone I know I can trust for advice and insight into things going on in the world of property finance. If you're looking for a straight shooter that you can confidently recommend to others, get ahold of Rick and start a professional friendship with him and the Benchmark team. Thanks for always keeping it real and working to help me meet my goals as well, I wish I could give 6 stars!

We used Benchmark Mortgage when purchasing our house and then again when we refinanced last year. I would recommend them to anyone looking to purchase. The level of responsiveness by Rick and his team whenever we had questions or needed documents was outstanding. They truly made the buying process easier for us, and we will absolutely be using them again in the future.

The Veldman team was referred to me by a trusted source and they did not disappoint. They maintained clear communication throughout the process and we’re very active to get things taken care of. After our mortgage was set and running, they continue to maintain contact doing a great job.

We have used Rich Veldman and his team for 2 mortgages and 2 refinances. They have gotten us the best interest rate and made the process so easy, even when we threw in some curveballs. We recommended the team to my brother who was also able to get a mortgage through Benchmark and he also had a very positive experience,\.
