Mike helped us close on our house in record time! He kept things moving quickly and efficiently to help us close over 10 days than we originally thought we would. He explained everything throughout the whole process and ensured we felt comfortable with what we were getting into. He was consistently keeping us updated so we never felt in the dark about anything. Could not have done it without him!!

Would definitely recommend him to anyone looking to buy a home! Thank you again Michael and God bless you and the whole UWM/HFH's organizations!

Michael does a great job, serving his clients to the highest level. Working together, we were able to save a recent client over $17,000!!! As a realtor, I’d recommend him to anyone.

Michael did a great job with us. He even showed up at the closing with the title company. Even the title company said I am so impressed you show up to all your closings. Mike made it easy transition and getting him the paperwork needed and streamline the process for us to make something that is usually stressful, a great experience , he answered all my questions in a timely and professional manner. Mike also helped with multiple loan process so we could choose the best option for us.

Mike was amazing to work with. He was able to answer all of our questions on needing to secure funds for a needed home renovation. Mike was able to go over all the different options as well as guide us to what would work best for our financial situation. He is able to work with all types of lenders giving you multiple options/offers to chose from!

Mike was so passionate, proactive and informative, he worked really hard to find me the perfect refi option for my situation and house! He researched and educated me on many different options, managed a team of people that were making it all happen and was available and responsive 24/7 to make sure I got my loan through with the specs and timing needed. Not only did he get me a great new loan in a strange economy right now, he helped me get rid of all my debt in the process. He cares deeply, follows up on every detail to make sure you are educated and empowered and that things go as planned. He was truly blessing for me and I’m grateful!!

100% would recommend Mike. When my wife and I started the mortgage application process, he found that if only one of us was on the application, we got a much better rate as 1st time home buyers. His loan tool was really helpful in allowing us to calculate an appropriate down payment and see how far our budget took us to avoid surprises. He pushed back on third parties if things didn't align with his and our expectations. He worked around our schedules and drove 1hr+ out of his way to make it to our off-site closing. Will definitely work with Mike again in the future!

Kate Hajski

We cannot recommend Mike enough! As first time home buyers in a difficult housing market, we are so impressed at the lengths to which Mike went to make the experience an incredibly positive one. Mike made himself available any time of day for any questions we had, and was always willing to run multiple scenarios for us so we could figure out what was best for our financial situation. There were a lot of terms that we weren't familiar with, and he was very patient explaining everything and how it impacted us. He referred us to our realtor, he often reached out to third parties on our behalf, and we could tell he had our best interests at heart. You are in excellent hands with Mike.

Michael has been amazing throughout our experience, even with a few bumps in the road (on the seller’s part)! I highly recommend. We got a clear to close within two weeks! Thanks, Michael!

I highly recommend Michael Halker! Michael made the mortgage process as easy as possible for me. He went out of his way to drive and pick up documents necessary for the mortgage process when I was unable because of work. I won't lie, obtaining a mortgage is stressful in and of itself but Michael was patient with me and walked me thru every little detail. He got me the best rate he could and got me discounts and rebates. On my closing day, he surprised me with a homemade cheesecake. He literally helped me move. I'm happy to say that not only did I get a mortgage and a new condo, but I've also made a new friend. Michael is a ethical, honest, kind human being and I'm happy he's now my friend.

This was our first time buying a house. Mike was absolutely wonderful! We really had no idea what the purchasing or loan process included. We had so many questions and Mike was very patient with us, answering our questions with clarity and in terms we could understand. He was kind and found the best loan for us, and discounts. When we called or texted him, he responded very quickly, even if it was late in the evening or on weekends. We highly recommend him to everyone looking to have a smooth loan process! Thank you Mike!

So, Mike here is truly one of the best customer service experiences I have ever had. He was considerate, kind, available, and welcoming. I just recent bought my very first house ever! Exciting stuff! Him and my realtor were a phenomenal team. If you are trying to purchase a home, I would make Mike your first choice. Throughout the whole process, he was available when I needed him to be, he would explain anything I needed- in a way that I never felt judged or stupid. It was honestly such a painless experience that I was able to simply focus on the numbers and the excitement of buying my first home! Mike is the man, he really is- and you should consider working with him if you find yourself looking for expertise, class, and outstanding service.

I highly recommend Reliance Financial Group! I couldn't of asked for a faster, smoother, easy process for my mortgage! Thank you Mike for making this process smooth!

Roderick Threets

Mike Halker and his team are the best team in the mortgage industry. Very professional, responsive, & knowledgeable Loan Officer. Mike truly cares about his clients. I will recommend him to every one I know. Because of Mike, my wife and I are living in the new home of our dreams. Thanks again, Mike

I normally not one to write reviews and post but I wanted to say that I am VERY happy to share as a “self employed” business owner and running into bumps when I started this process thru someone else that had “sworn” they could get me a loan to buy a home no problem - Well, they were NO help and as I totally forgot Michael Halker works for a mortgage company - it ran a bell when I was doing some work at his home. I’m ecstatic that not only was Michael able to get me pre approved to secure a condo I was looking at from the beginning of this process to closing!! Michael was nothing but professional thru the whole process with me and keeping me “sane” when needed as if anyone knows, it’s NOT a easy process for self employed people! I honestly can’t say enough GREAT things besides IF you are looking to buy a new home than Michael Halker is your man and his team!! ❤️❤️❤️ Thank you!

Micheal did an amazing job helping us get our first home. He was incredibly prompt, informative, and just all around on top of his game. He’s definitely a breath of fresh air when it comes to customer service. He got the job done in a very timely and professional manner. Again, great job and thank you Mike!!

Mike hit a couple of rough patches working up my loan but he sailed me right through them. Not only that, he listened to me so attentively that he actually suggested we go after something I was planning for a couple of years down the road and he got the job done! This guy was great!

We recently purchased our first house and Michael made it so easy for us. He walked us through all of our options and and was quick to answer all of our questions. We were able to take care of all the needed paperwork through email and phone, so we didn’t have to take any time off work. Our closing time was so fast that even our realtor was even impressed. I would highly recommend Michael Halker to anyone in need of a mortgage broker.

I just finished closing on a house with Michael from Reliance and could not be happier with the experience! Michael was professional, thorough, and very patient with us during the process. He was always accessible and took the time to explain the entire undertaking while keeping our unique needs a top priority. I should mention that he was able to save me money on the closing cost by applying hero discounts and credits, which was a significant amount and other finanical companies were unwilling to do so. I would not hesitate to reach out again if in need of future financial assistance. Thank you, Michael!!

It is with great pleasure that I write this testimonial review for Michael, an excellent mortgage loan professional. Michael is professional in every sense of the word - from his attire to his demeanor, he projects confidence and competence. But what sets him apart from other loan officers is his intentionality. Michael takes the time to get to know his clients, their needs and their goals. He then tailor-makes a loan package that best suits them. This level of customization is rare in the industry, and it is a testament to Michael's dedication to his clients. On top of that, Michael is brave. He is not afraid to take on difficult cases and fight for his clients. He knows the ins and outs of the loan process and is always willing to go the extra mile to help his clients get approved. In short, Michael is an excellent mortgage loan professional and I would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone looking for a loan.

What an awesome experience I had with Mike! He was always there to answer whatever question I had throughout the process and always made sure I completely understood before we finished the conversation. Mike is extremely professional, thorough and helpful. I would highly recommend him for any mortgage needs you may have. Thanks for everything you did for us Mike!

Mike was great! He answered every question I had and never felt made me feel like I was bothering him (and I had a lot of questions). He paid attention to all the little details and made our loan process extremely easy. I would highly recommend using Mike!!! Thank you!

Michael was a great help with the refinancing process. He was able to secure a lower rate for me and I am now paying less monthly on my loan. He was very patient with my situation, as there were quite a few headaches along the way (all on my end from my previous lender, not due to Michael) and he helped keep me grounded with the situation as I was becoming very frustrated about it. Michael truly cares about helping people and making them better off, so I highly recommend working with him. Not only did he make it easy, he is very open, honest, and trustworthy, so you can rest assured that you were well taken care of.

He got me conserved when the big banks said no because I am self employed. My family is in a home now that we wanted to buy and it was made possible by Michael! You won't find anyone that stays on top of things and respond quickly anytime, early or late in the day, as much as him.

Mike was great all the way through our home buying process. We had lots of issues with the appraisal/inspection, outside of his control, but Mike powered through it all and was very professional and pleasant to work with. I would recommend him to anyone looking for a mortgage consultant. John P.

Great experience working with Mike in getting my house remortgaged. Experience only took 8 days from start to closing. He’s responsive, and was willing to answer all my questions. I’d highly recommend him for your financial needs.

We couldn't be happier with our experience. Michael did a phenomenal job working with us every step of the way with efficiency and professionalism. He offered us an attractive mortgage rate, low fees compared to other lenders & we closed fairly quickly. I really appreciate his expertise, knowledge, communication and speed. We were able to eliminate the mortgage on our vacation home with a cash out refinance, got an incredibly low rate on our primary residence and cut the length of our mortgage in half! We highly recommend Michael!

You will not find a guy that is going to harder to get you the best deal possible than Mike Halker. As a new business owner recently self employed, trying to refinance my house was said to be impossible as I had not been in business for a full calendar year. Somehow, Mike was able to find a lender to back my refinance deal by searching his extensive list of lenders. He took my interest rate from 4.25% to 2.75% and was able get my PMI payment dropped completely. A total savings of about $295.00 per month. I would definitely work with Mike Halker again for anything mortgage related. 5 stars for sure!

Mike Halker was amazing with our refinance of our home. HIs expertise allowed us to shave off 2+ points from our interest rate. He gave us options to look at and we found exactly what worked for us. I can not thank him enough for his help. If you are looking at a new mortgage or to refinance, you will be very happy with Mike!!!!!!!
