DR worked with me every step of the way. He aways made himself available for any questions or concerns and was always thoughtful and clear in his communications. I couldn’t have asked for a better person to help me navigate this complex process!

D.R. is so easy to work with. I have financed different properties with him twice. I feel like I always get the right level of detail from him about the process - enough to answer all my questions and understand my part in the process, but not so much that I'm overwhelmed. He communicates and processes everything promptly, always meeting expected timelines. I never had to answer the same question or send the same document to him twice. I would highly recommend him to friends and coworkers looking to secure a mortgage, and I will gladly work with him again in the future!

D.R. was such an excellent partner to us in financing the purchase of our first home that we decided to work with him again when deciding to upgrade to a larger residence. D.R. made both processes as easy as possible, proactively reaching out to us regularly with timely updates, and making himself available to answer any and all of our questions, always responding promptly by phone or email. He is attentive, courteous, friendly, knowledgeable, and professional. I would recommend D.R. to my friends and family, as well as to anybody else in need of a Loan Consultant to assist them in financing the purchase of a new home.

We've had the pleasure of working with D.R. twice now, the first time to purchase our home several years ago and now to refinance our home loan. D.R. made the process of refinancing our home loan simple and pleasant. He's friendly, organized, diligent, and a clear communicator. We highly recommend working with him!

DR and Nycole were both miracle workers as I bought my home in an extremely competitive market. They went above and beyond every step of the way. My offer was strong and accepted in part because of DR's willingness to go the extra mile for me. The two of them were communicative every step of the way and my interest rate came in much lower than I expected. I am so appreciative of the work they did for me to quickly and seamlessly secure my dream home!

DR and Nycole are an unparalleled team who provide more than just exceptional customer service; they actually know how the process works and can tailor precisely to your needs. To provide context, I have worked with multiple banks in 4 different states and they all pale unequivocally compared to Umpqua thanks to DR. This experience was an order of magnitude better in terms of clarity, efficiency, and confidence. I was 100% confident of success from the moment that DR told me that my loan would be approved, and of course he was right. I was treated with respect every step of the way and DR and staff were exceptionally responsive. Above all that, DR's experience in the field made this experience unique in that he asked only for needed documentation, versus scads of unnecessary paperwork that every other single lender i've worked with has required (including a few that I've fired). DR's understanding of what the process actually is allowed us to save countless hours of back-and-forth ping pong of getting documents, then getting more documents, then getting even more, then having to go back and redo the 1st round because they were too old. On the money side of things, DR gave me different options to work with, and then went to bat with the bank for me when I wanted to try a more challenging scenario. It ended up exactly where I wanted it, with the best interest rate available. Based on this, I would recommend DR to every single person I know looking for lending help in buying or refinancing a home. No matter how big or small the loan, or your own personal circumstances, I know that you won't find better, more competent customer service than with DR.

We were working with DR to buy our house. In this process we received a great assistance from DR and his group. His friendliness, punctuality and flexibility is amazing. He did every thing possible to help us achieve our goal of having our house. We felty like we are dealing with our friend, not some one that we met through business. We extremely recommend DR. Thank you DR.

We had an excellent experience financing our home with DR. This is the second time we have used him. He is very knowledgeable, friendly, and has excellent communication skills. He even suggested to our realtor that we ask the buyers of our home for an extra 3 days after closing so we could move into our new house. If it hadn?t been for DR it would have been very hard to move out on time. I highly recommend DR to anyone looking to finance or refinance a home.

We got our mortgage in January and had a wonderful experience working with DR. We were selling a house at the same time we were buying. He patiently explained everything and answered all of our questions. He even provided extra resources that addressed concerns we were having with the purchase outside of the mortgage. He was friendly and responsive and available at a moments notice. We cannot recommend him enough. He is amazing!

DR and staff made the mortgage process painless. We knew in advance of making any purchase offers what the monthly payment breakdown would look like, and there were zero surprises along the way. DR and Umpqua provided an incredible rate, super responsive and clear communication, and clear answers to all our questions.

We've worked with DR for multiple transactions over the last 6 years, and wouldn't think of going elsewhere in the future. He's communicative, professional and super knowledgeable. He helps you to identify a reasonable outcome, and then goes out and delivers as promised. We would definitely recommend him with no reservation to friends, family and strangers alike.

My husband and I have had the privilege of working with DR Miller multiple times over the last 10+ years. After having a very shady dealing with disingenuous mortgage brokers back in 2006, I was very diligent to find someone who is honest. And that is DR in a nutshell. His communication style is clear and concise and even if I don?t understand some thing he has said, I know I can ask him to rephrase any information to help me understand, and it know he will rephrase or explain in further detail without ever being patronizing to me or my husband. DR always follows up and is as clear as possible about our timeline, closing needs, etc. When we wanted to jump on buying a house ( over the holidays, no less), DR worked fervently to get our pre-approval done quickly. We also worked with him to make sure we could have loan docs available prior to signing to work with our schedule. Per usual, he delivered above and beyond service. I would absolutely recommend him.
