“After working with several lenders to become first time homeowners, we finally decided to go with Benchmark Mortgage, but more specifically with Kevin Murphy. Kevin took the time to explain all the details in a way that no one else would take the time to. He made the daunting process of becoming a first time homeowner as easy and transparent as possible. I highly recommend Kevin and Benchmark Mortgage. You will not find better customer service anywhere.”

“Kevin was amazing from start to finish! After my medical retirement, I looked to DFW to settle with my hubby. I had already purchased with VA loans in the past but never had such a personable loan officer.
Kevin explained VLB, VA, and more conventional loan options to find me the best option.
He then worked hand in hand with my realtor (Lisa from Home Approval Team – also awesome) in getting us set up to close right on time.
I would recommend him for anyone looking to purchase and just to understand more how to purchase a house.”

“I chose Kevin because I saw good reviews about him and now I am the one leaving a review for him so the next person can benefit. Kevin gets involved in your home buying process from the beginning to help make your offers stand out. He will reach out to the sellers and inform them that you are a qualified home buyer. This step plays a major role in getting your offer accepted in this competitive market. Our closing date was under a month and he and his team worked effectively and fast to get all the paperwork in order. Kevin and his team are great with teamwork as he worked with my realtor several times and solved all the issues on time. As our family grows and when we need a bigger house, I will definitely choose him again for my next mortgage. Thanks for the 5 star experience!”

“We would like to acknowledge the exceptional service that we received during the entire VA / mortgage process with Benchmark Mortgage. Kevin Murphy’s professionalism / knowledge of the industry and VA requirements was impressive and truly appreciated. We have experienced frustrating and tedious processes with several other lenders in the past. Kevin went above and beyond to ensure all of our needs were met and that everything was handled thoroughly and efficiently. We have and will continue to recommend Benchmark and Kevin Murphy in the future.”

– T. E. Dudek from League City, TX 10/26/2020 via Zillow

“I found Kevin Murphy’s contact information on Texas Veterans Land Board lender directory. The first time that I spoke with Kevin; before I committed as a client, Kevin stayed on the phone with my wife and I for an hour answering all and every question we had. I had another lender previous to Kevin and I could never get him on the phone. The first thing that I liked about Kevin is that he always answered the phone and would call me back if he couldn’t. Kevin is very patient and always eager to educate the borrower and give you realistic expectations. My wife and I were blessed and fortunate to have found Kevin and Benchmark as our lender.”

– Christopher Burnett from Aledo, TX 6/12/2020 via Zillow

“Kevin has been incredible throughout the home buying process. He has been thorough, transparent, and knowledgable. He was patient in explaining all potential fees and their relationship with available interest rates. He is not a flattery or fluffy loan officer he is someone who is realistic and proactively mitigated risks. Choosing to work with Kevin was the BEST decision. We highly recommend. Thank you so much!

– Stefany B. from Katy, TX 9/4/2018 via Zillow

“We had a great experience with Kevin!! Our paths crossed one night after I submitted information online inquiring about VA loans. Shorlty after I hit the submit button, I received an introductory email from him introducing himself along with the services he would be able to provide. Throughout our home buying experience he was very helpful, knowledgeable, responsive, thorough, patient , friendly and flexible. As a first time home buyer, I had a number of questions( I mean a ton). He did an excellent job explaining everything to me in detail and clarity; his level of professionalism, knowledge of the mortgage industry and the VA loan policies/ processes was remarkable. He also made himself available day or night via phone, email or text. This was extremely comforting when issues came up. During the moments when I became extremely panicked and worried about how things were going; Kevin was a voice of reason, positivity and calmness. Just what I needed!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I would highly recommend Kevin for any of your mortgage needs.”

– Mrs C. Lewis from Rowlett, TX 6/8/2018 via Zillow
