McKay Wilson was an exceptional source as well as a superb broker. Being newbies, we greatly valued his explanation of all processes involved. He was very informative regarding answering any of our questions and made us feel comfortable to the point where we felt that there were no judgments involved whatsoever. It was such a pleasant experience dealing with such a fine person, and I wouldn't hesitate recommending him as a broker to anyone. We utilized a VA loan and he knew everything about them. read more

McKay is the best! I was referred to him by a mutual friend, and he was extremely responsive, informative, and personable. I felt like I was in good hands with McKay the entire process of searching for my home (which took over 8 months). He was available whenever I needed to offer on property, and he was extremely quick and efficient. He's also very communicative, which was awesome!!! Super appreciative of all his hard work and I'll be referring him to anyone who needs help with their mortgages! read more

Long overdue review for McKay. McKay helped me with my second mortgage about 4-5 months ago. I've been thru this process at least 4 times due to refinancing. Our home buying situation was not typical. We did a short sale, but we did it with a conventional mortgage so that meant a lower APR compared to a construction loan or hard money loan. That alone saved us money. McKay was very responsive to emails and phone calls. He was very clear in his explanations. During closing and signing all the final loan docs, McKay did a video conference call with presentation of the documents we will see and went over everything line by line the evening before signing. I've never worked with anyone nearly as thorough as McKay. If you're looking for a mortgage, I'd unequivocally recommend McKay. read more

McKay was the BEST of the best when it came to walking first-time home buyers like us through the entire loan process with reassurance and ease! He really made us feel comfortable with every decision along the way, and we learned so much from him! We appreciated McKay's patience and attention to detail as he promptly answered any questions we had and always made time to meet and discuss any documents that were sent our way so we understood what we were signing. His efficiency definitely gave us a boost when getting our offer accepted, as we were able to close in a short window! We would recommend McKay to anyone who wants a loan officer who feels like family! read more

McKay is amazing. I cannot wait to buy another property so we can work together again! We didn't have a totally unique situation, but he was SO patient and SO kind with us as we moved along through the process. I would recommend him times a thousand! He and his team are incredible! read more

McKay helped us with our loan for our first home purchase in Hawaii this year. From the first phone call, I knew I wanted to work with McKay. He was extremely professional, responsive, and patient. I could tell that he would help make loan process as smooth as possible, and my experience exceeded my initial expectations. McKay will patiently walked us through each step of the process and explained in as much detail as we were willing to absorb -- tailoring the process as much as possible to our unique needs. Not only did we lock in a great rate, when it turned out that escrow was likely to close around our due date for our baby, McKay worked with us and with our realtor behind the scenes to expedite the process as much as he could. I know the timeline could have been out of our hands, but to the extent that he could, McKay supported us. We would welcome the opportunity to work with McKay again if we decide to purchase again in Hawaii. I highly recommend considering McKay if you are shopping around for a home loan! read more

McKay provided my wife and I the most professional and timely experience in completing our loan for our new location! He is exceptional and courteous, and to add patient! Recommended Top Shelf for a first time buyer and even experienced customers! read more

Okay, well, I will share my honest experience... I shopped around the Island for the so-called "best" mortgage lender/broker on Oahu. Typing in all sorts of keywords into Google, did all my research on Yelp, and other places on the web, you name it, I most likely went there to shop around to find the perfect company to help me out with my Mortgage needs. I went as far as even having some in-person appointments with these brokers to get quotes on what would be done to help my family and I move in to a new home. And I mean it when I say that, I went to the brokers who a lot of people said are the best with rates and service. Let's just say... Nope... My shopping continued... Being a business owner myself, I know a hustler and I know a genuine character, can't mix those two up... Continue. There's one thing I recall, I went to some meeting once regarding an educational speech about home-buying and Mortgage tips & tricks. I dug into my bag of Business Cards and found exactly whom I was recalling; McKay Wilson of C2 Financial. The very individual who spoke his presentation, educating the crowd about the proper way of buying and even advertising his services to PROMISE to beat just about any other broker/lender out there in service quality and rates. Hah. Far-fetched? Unbelievable? Naa, no way? Well... I'm shopping. Turn-over every stone. My future depends on it. Let's give it a shot :) This is what I did, I took the quotes I received from other brokers and went straight to this so-called Mr. Promise guy - McKay. Before I continue let me tell you this, we had a very challenging situation on our hands that almost would not allow us to move forward with ANY Mortgage at all with anyone for any amount anywhere and anytime without certain contingencies met, in which not anyone could find the (best & easiest) solution to. We've had our share of run-arounds. Ok, So... Armed with all documents in hand, I gave Mr. Optimistic a call... Boom! "Best lowest rates in the industry on a Mortgage Loan." "Best-in-class service in the Mortgage industry." "Quick 30-day closure on the Perfect Home." McKay Wilson of C2 Financial Corp. Hawaii, truly is a blessing in our life. He was very courteous of our situation and helped us in a moment which seemed almost impossible to all brokers before him. He found solutions after solutions with all the issues we had gone through with our entire buying process, making it very easy for us to close on the perfect house for my family and I. The reassurance he gave us when we had a lot of doubt had made us feel so safe and secure and very confident home buyers thanks to his optimistic character and attitude that will just rub off on you. McKay was very smooth through the process quick and responsive. We threw him a lot of questions and he had no hesitation to answer them appropriately and professionally with very timely and accurate responses. Super easy to work with. A Fantastic communicator. He was also able to save us a lot of money, the lowest interest rates we have ever seen. Rates that would take a lot of negotiating to get to, that you may not even see at all because most brokers are just about the money, without the care to set the family up for an easier future. McKay gave us the ultimate lowest rates right up front no questions, which kept him at his promise of beating most brokers/lenders. It was just too easy, for him and for us, oh and our Realtor! McKay was amazing with our Realtor, assisting her to help close the deal and providing us, with lots of data and his analysis on everything. He broke down the numbers, gave us graphs, gave us options, gave us tools, gave us the world, to assure we would be well educated and informed with our purchase as he knew what he was doing would set us up for the lifetime. It happened so fluidly that it took us a short 30-days to get our new house, when industry standard is about 45-days! Choosing McKay Wilson of C2 Financial Corp. Hawaii will be the best decision you've made when coming to your Mortgage needs. You will love his character, honesty, transparency, service and most of all -- You will save money. I've already done most of the shopping around town to let you know my personal experience. I am here today posting this because I feel you should... Stop looking. Start buying. With much love and respect to McKay, you amazing man! P.S - My personal advice to anyone looking to buy a home, if you have a challenging situation, feel like you can't qualify for a home, have credit issues, not sure if you can afford one or have some doubts about buying; don't be afraid.

McKay Wilson - C2 Hawaii - Mortgage Brokers Near Me

We had to short sale on a house that we had to close on in 45 days. Mckay came through and was so organized and quick to move on everything. He made the process seamless and answered all of my silly irritating questions. Mckay gave us the offer letter within the hour, he helped to get us an appraiser, our loan process was discussed throughrally and he talked to us about all options in terms of putting down money (10 vs 20%) and different rates of loans and the point system. He made the down payment and loan type work for our daily lifestyle so my family would be comfortable. At our signing for the title, he came and sat with us, explained all the paperwork and event gave us a great house warming gift. Since working with him and our realtor; our realtor has enjoyed working with McKay and we recommend him to anyone trying to get a home loan read more

Recently signed loan docs for a new condo and will be getting the keys soon. Unlike financial institutions, as a broker, Mckay is able to shop around for the best rates and find a loan program that suits my needs. As a result, he was able to find me a great rate and a fast mortgage lender. He also found first-time homebuyer options and made it easy to apply for a loan. Throughout the loan application process, Mckay took the time to explain different loan programs and helped me weigh the pros/cons of each option. He also provided very detailed instructions on what to provide the lender so that the loan process could continue without delay. If I ever had a question or concern, McKay was quick to respond and provided a clear, detailed answer. Overall, a really positive experience and highly recommended! read more

While trying to buy a house in Hawaii my realtor referred me to McKay and said he would get me the best rates to purchase a home. This is my second home purchase and when I purchased my home years ago I thought all mortgage rates were the same and you get what you get. To my surprise it was not like that, McKay got me an unbelievably low rate (Lower than what most banks are advertising right now). Additionally to that, when I purchased my first home the financial process was a complete headache and I was already dreading having to do it again but this time McKay made it incredibly easy. He was on top of everything, he would answer my emails or calls very quickly even with a 5 hour time zone difference. Highly recommend MR. McKay he will compare hundreds of banks and get you the lowest rate possible, very patient with all my questions and very friendly. read more

McKay did a wonderful job for us working with our lender and getting us through the whole process of a mortgage for our home. He took the time to explain things and make us feel comfortable. I thought we were set to get our mortgage without any issues, but of course, something did come up and McKay did a wonderful job taking care of it all. I've always said that it's easy to be good when things go smoothly, but you really shine if you make things seem easy when there are obstacles in your path. McKay shined bright for us! read more

We chose to work with McKay a few years ago based on his 5 star yelp reviews and we are so grateful that we did! We worked with McKay three times; to refinance our HELOC loan, as the broker for the buyer of our home, and as the broker for the purchase of our new home. McKay provided professional and friendly service each and every time. Working with McKay is like working with family. You can trust that he genuinely has your best interest in mind. He also was able to develop a genius plan to secure the loan for the the buyers of our home that made both the buyers and us very happy and impressed the real estate agents. For the purchase of our home, he kept us up to date every step of the way and it was the smoothest purchase we have ever made. I highly recommend working with McKay.

If the objective is having a mortgage broker who can take over the stress in finding a lender with the best rate and also provides outstanding service with prompt responses then look no further, McKay Wilson is da MAN! After several weeks of going back and forth with my current bank and one other bank trying to get refinancing rates and costs down, I wasn't satisfied with my own findings. So I decided to reach out to McKay for help. I was totally impressed with his well laid-out and professionally done presentation online. The easiest decision for me to make was the fact that McKay was going to save me thousands of dollars in closing costs. Throughout the process, I was very impressed with McKay especially in how professional he was and how quickly he responded to my texts and emails. If you read this review because you're still searching for a consummate pro with an impeccable follow through then search no more. Get McKay on your side. read more

McKay is one of the best mortgage loan officers I've worked for, and now my to-go loan person. He's prompt and and great in communicating with his clients. We got the property we want within the closing. Highly recommended! read more

Amazing person, excellent service. McKay was very prompt and helpful during our loan process and re-financing. He is very kind, professional, and helpful. We strongly recommend him! read more

I cheerfully talk about McKay to anyone who talks about buying a home. I already knew him socially, and then he came highly recommended by good friends who worked with him for their new home. To be honest, I wasn't entirely organized and situated with my finances when I found the property I wanted, but I knew it was the perfect place for my daughter and me. It was pretty embarrassing to realize there were things I should've taken care of financially before I even started thinking about buying a place. I thought my chances to make this place my new home was about to slip away, but somehow McKay made it possible. McKay ever so gently and persistently nudged me in the right direction and with detailed instructions. Cosmic forces aligned for me when McKay was still able to bring me numbers I could work with and live with. He hustled and went the extra mile to help me apply for the Mortgage Credit Certificate and squeeze it in before an extremely tight deadline. Furthermore, at the time, I wanted to put more down (and sacrifice a good portion of my extra savings) to achieve a slightly lesser monthly payment, but McKay wisely suggested that I shouldn't do that in consideration of future expenditures. And it turns out, I absolutely needed that extra savings anyway. I'm so glad I listened to him! Throughout the entire process at the time, I acknowledge McKay for the following roles: my loan officer (got the lowest rates possible!), my financial advisor (I still have money in the bank!), my tax consultant (I forgot to file a tax return! oops!), my mental therapist (for all those panicked late night calls!), my cheerleader (I almost had cold feet several times!), my priest (absolutely no judgement whatsoever!), a true friend (trusted homies are so hard to come by!), and finally, a genuinely warm-hearted, patient, and hardworking person who cares about the people he is providing services for (elevated client service!). If you are considering McKay as your loan officer and you read this review, please know this comes from a sincerely grateful and thoroughly overjoyed single mother who didn't think she could ever own a home by herself here in Hawaii. Mahalo! read more

McKay Wilson - C2 Hawaii - Happily signing my life away! - Mortgage Brokers Near Me

I am Incredibly Happy that I choose McKay to help us refinance our Condo! He and his staff were excellent to deal with in every way and made the whole process very smooth the whole way through, from beginning to end. I did a few comparisons initially with other Lenders and his pricing was the best.

McKay is awesome. He is friendly, efficient and detailed. It was stressful buying my first home, especially since I was out of state and in the process of moving. McKay worked around my schedule to ensure he could talk about exact processes and clarifications. His patience kept me from going crazy through this process. It is hard to find great people in the customer service industry and I was lucky to be able to work with McKay. I will 100% be using McKay for my next home purchase! read more

The mortgage process is intricate and with a lot of moving parts, whether it was the changing interest rates, whether you should put 10% or 20% down... it's really not the same or easy as swiping your credit card and calling it a day. I'm glad that a good friend of mine referred McKay to help me with this process. Mckay was informative and patient throughout the process, often answering a lot of my questions about .. well, everything. He was punctual for our meetings and timely when answering my questions. Also really appreciated that he was flexible with meeting times/days since I work during business hours. He'll often recommend which programs that might be good for my situation and do cost comparisons to see if it's a good idea to take it. I'd highly recommend him to anyone thinking of buying real estate and even if you shop around (which you should anyways), I'm sure you'll find that he often has the best rate. read more

I am so thankful that my husband's co-worker referred us to McKay!!! We are extremely happy & blessed with the outcome of our home refi.

I have known McKay since we were kids and he has always been a trustworthy and reliable friend. Naturally, when it was time to finance my first home I was confident that he would do a thorough and dependable job helping me to navigate the confusing process. After a less-than-ideal experience speaking with another loan officer, I knew that McKay was the only one I wanted to work with going forward. Not only was McKay very responsive but he was proactive in explaining how the process works, and exactly what would be required of me and what to expect from them. I don't know how he got this done, but he was even able to get a rushed appraisal scheduled for me in less than two weeks. We executed a 30 day close, during the Christmas and New Year holidays, which was just above and beyond my expectations. I will continue to send business his way 100%, and look forward to using his services again! read more

As a first-time homeowner, there was a lot of information to process that I was not prepared nor used to dealing with. With the help of McKay, he made it effortless to understands the process. He made it a great learning experience. What I like about working with him is that he is a lot of fun and on top of that, he was very approachable, reachable, and overall knowledgable of what he does. He helps find the best fits for what's great for his clients. I definitely recommend McKay. Thank you so much for all your help McKay! read more

I dealt with a couple brokers and Quicken leading up to applying for a mortgage. We chose McKay Wilson due to his fast follow up, friendliness, attentiveness, and honesty. This continued throughout the application process and all the way through signing. And I still can ask a question and get a quick response whenever I need it even after closing. Don't go anywhere else. McKay has the best rates too. Blew quicken out of the water and got me qualified for a much nicer house than I would have qualified for elsewhere. Thanks McKay and C2 Hawaii! read more

McKay did an excellent job as our mortgage broker. He was competent, always reachable, patient with explaining every single detail of the process. We were first-time homebuyers so we came into this not knowing much about different aspects of getting a loan and he walked us through it all with a lot of patience. Unlike a lot of other brokers that get into the business without the actual education, McKay had the right education and a lot of experience in the industry, which we found comforting. He didn't try to "upsell" anything and seemed upfront and honest. Most importantly, we were happy with the rates he offered as they were much better than what others offered when we were shopping around. We were very satisfied with his work and appreciated his competence (which isn't as common these days as you would think). read more

McKay was invaluable in guiding me throughout the mortgage process and there is no doubt that I'll work with him on any future purchase. Whether it was by email, phone, or text, McKay was always available, kept an open line of communication, and always gave me straight answers and sound advice. read more

McKay was an excellent resource for helping us get a mortgage for a upper-end vacation property on the Big Island. He provided quick quotes, was super detailed and timely on follow-up, and ensured that we were able to keep a tight schedule to close. We had zero issues managing this remotely from the mainland. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend his services. read more

McKay is one of the best in the industry. I went through 2 brokers before McKay, both indicating because of my self employed income running through my corporation, I could not be financed. McKay was able to find the right lender and close very quickly. Even my real estate agent started using McKay and she's one of the top agents i Kauai. read more

We are shopping around for morgage rates since the first morgage company we initially applied for raise our rate while we are looking for a home to buy, we were annoyed and disappointed. Lucky we decided to contact McKay to see if he can find us a lower rate and he did. His so diffrent than the place we went to at first. McKay explain everything to us step by step,you gain knowledge with him when buying your home. Other places just give you your rate and how much your monthly morgage not with McKay he will teach you and he will answer all your questions. Having a good agent and a great morgage broker will make your home purchase much smoother. We finally got our very first home using VA. Thanks very much McKay read more

Thorough, fast to respond to questions, and overall high level of customer service. Would recommend him to anyone looking to refinance. read more

I can't begin to explain how helpful McKay Wilson was with our home buying process. My husband and I were cautious and asked probably 1,000,001 questions over the months we worked together. McKay was not only helpful to navigate through the confusing (at least to me) financial options, he was creative when we needed ideas, he hustles when time is of the essence, he was patient with us and extremely knowledgeable to all the loan options available to us. In the end we got everything we wanted. We couldn't have gotten better service and I'd recommend him to anyone who needs help with financing. McKay Wilson is an outstanding and professional mortgage broker. read more

Prior to contacting McKay, I already got approved by 3 different lenders but decided to see what all the 5 star reviews are all about. I'm glad I did! Just going to keep my review short but I also want everyone to know how good McKay is at what he does. 1) Excellent customer service throughout the buying process. He truly works with you and values you as a client. 2) Very responsive - even on weekends and at night. 3) Very knowledgeable - I was all informed and found all about my loan program options. Being a broker, he was able to provide more loan program than the other places. Recommended! Will I work with him again? Definitely! Thank you McKay! read more

We were referred to McKay Wilson by our realtor James Park to help us with the financing for our home. I needed someone who could do VA loans, and who knew the loan process inside and out because there were some issues in my application that I thought might be a problem. However, McKay was able to answer all of my questions right on the spot, and made me feel comfortable that I would have no problem qualifying. He also recommended that I apply for the Mortgage Credit Certificate (MCC) program, something that I had no idea existed, so I'm happy he told me about that. With the MCC I am able to save thousands of dollars each year on tax deductions! The whole loan process was very simple and very fast. From beginning to end it took about 30 days. It would've been shorter, but the seller had left on a trip so we had to wait until he came back to sign some papers. I don't think the seller realized how fast we would close. In the end, I ended up paying absolutely no closing costs by working with McKay. The credits he was able to get from his lender paid not only for all of my closing costs like the appraisal, title insurance, and escrow fees, but he also was able to push my first payment date out 2 months. This was such an incredible help for my family to be able to move into our new home and not make any payments for two months while we get settled. I didn't realize at the time, but he's a Certified Military Home Specialist and a former underwriter, which explains why he was always a few steps ahead. Also, he is so flexible in every way. Whether by phone, text, or email, I never had a problem getting a hold of him. He even worked on my file while he was on his vacation. I absolutely would recommend McKay for anything mortgage related. Phenomenal service, incredible speed, and of course, lowest rates and costs." Thank you! Bill S read more
