We honestly couldn’t have asked for a better experience with Duane! From day one, he was professional, kind, and truly cared about helping us find the best mortgage possible. He worked so hard to get us an amazing rate and made sure we understood everything along the way. Buying a home can be stressful, but he made the process so smooth and easy. He always answered our questions quickly, explained every detail clearly, and kept us updated every step of the way. You can tell he really love what he do and want the best for his clients. My husband constantly called him many times a day, he was very fast to answer the phone and patiently explained everything over and over again without any hesitation until we understood everything. We’re so grateful and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a trustworthy, knowledgeable, and straightforward lender.Posted on Brandi BarwickTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. As a first time home-buyer with a unique situation, Duane had to field A LOT of questions from me. He was always patient, thorough, and made sure to explain multiple options. I distinctly remember him saying "I won't hang up until I'm sure you understand." He was a joy to work with and I would highly recommend him!Posted on Marjan ShawTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. As a first-time homebuyer, I couldn’t have asked for a better experience than working with Duane Buziak and his team at Coast to Coast. He made the entire process smooth, professional, and stress-free. Even when challenges came up with our agent’s title company, Duane stayed calm, supportive, and went above and beyond to guide us through. My fiancé, who has purchased several homes before, said this was by far the easiest experience he’s ever had. I highly recommend Duane and Coast to Coast for all your lending needs!Posted on Lisa PauletteTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Duane Buziak was a Godsend. With patience and outstanding professionalism, Duane guided me through not only a new home purchase, but navigating an emotional life transition. He is a master who competes with only him self…as he is number 1. He works tirelessly to garner the best interest rate and loan situation. He is respected by his peers and other professionals within his network. I couldn’t have made it through this daunting experience without his encouragement and expertise.Posted on Cecilia MorejonTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Although I had an overwhelming complicated style of income, Duane was a rockstar and made it happen. He dug around and found what worked for me and when lenders complicated the process even more, Duane was on top of things and we worked it out together. Things got done efficiently and neatly. A true master in his field! You can tell he lives and breaths his career and loves what he does. 🙌🙌🙌Posted on John SteffyTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Duane is the real deal Is he over the top…Absolutely! Is he aggressive…Yes! Will he reach out to you as soon as you inquire…you bet!!! And at the end of the day he will use that energy to get you the best deal that fits your needs. We started out working with him almost 3 years ago. We were in a desperate situation. We did not have the necessary history for a conventional mortgage. The company that Duane worked for them did not handle such cases. When he exhausted all available avenues at his disposal, he gave me another contact who handled those cases. While that broker was far from the worker Duane was, he had an angel working for him “Crystal” her hard work and council led us to getting it done… Flash forward to this month. I had always said I would seek Duane when we were able to refinance…our pay history was now sufficient, our credit scores had been pushed up. Duane sends an email. We reconnected. Talking at 10pm ( someone who sleeps less than me) 2am emails ( yes I was up as well) 3 weeks later We just signed our refi loan 3.5% drop Closing was 2 weeks ahead of schedule No glitches! Why Duane knows the business! Duane grinds! Duane listens to what you want! Duane doesn’t push at the end! Thank you Maestro!Posted on Kyle BlackwellTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Duane and his team were amazing! He gets the rates and deals done. Trusted broker, I will recommend him to any in Virginia! Duane I couldn't thank you enough giving me the confidence to be able to close and open a new chapter in my life.Verified by TrustindexTrustindex verified badge is the Universal Symbol of Trust.

Frequently Asked Questions
The pre-approval process is much more complete than pre-qualification. For pre-qualification, the loan officer asks you a few questions and provides you with a pre-qual letter. Pre-approval includes all the steps of a full approval, except for the appraisal and title search. Pre-approval can put you in a better negotiating position, much like a cash buyer.
Usually, people refinance to save money either by obtaining a lower interest rate or by reducing the term of the loan. Refinancing is also a way to convert an adjustable loan to a fixed loan or to consolidate debts. The decision to refinance can be difficult, since there are several reasons to refinance. However, if you are looking to save money, try this calculation: Calculate the total cost of the refinance Calculate the monthly savingsDivide the total cost of the refinance (#1) by the monthly savings (#2). This is the “break even” time. If you own the house longer than this, you will save money by refinancing. Since refinancing is a complex topic, consult a mortgage professional.
A rate lock is a contractual agreement between the lender and buyer. There are four components to a rate lock: loan program, interest rate, points, and the length of the lock.
A mortgage broker counsels you on the loans available from different wholesalers, takes your application, and usually processes the loan which involves putting together the complete file of information about your transaction including the credit report, appraisal, verification of your employment and assets, and so on. When the file is complete, but sometimes sooner, the lender “underwrites” the loan, which means deciding whether or not you are an acceptable risk.
