Posted on Google 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 Google 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 Google 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 Google 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.Posted on Google J RTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Duane was super knowledgeable and definitely the best broker I've used–he really fought to get us the best rate possible and kept me in the loop at all times.Posted on Google No ThanksTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. As you can tell by my username I am not a publicity hound. But I have to stop and thank Duane Buziak. I know he is the maestro but I didn't know he also saves money on title fees too. Wow. I compared over 7 different title companies and it wasn't even close. Talk about someone going the extra mile. Best rates lowest fees, and then he sent me a title company that I swear to God charged almost nothing for title fees. Amen. He goes above and beyond anyone. I had purchased 4 homes before this, never had a smoother, easier, less painful experience. And the savings, they are very real. If you are not using Duane Buziak for your mortgage, why?Posted on Google Naomi HoehnTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I’ve worked with many lenders over the years, but Duane Buziak continues to set the gold standard. I’ve trusted him with countless clients — and recently, I had the pleasure of working with him on my own home purchase. Simply put, Duane is outstanding. He brings a rare combination of deep industry knowledge, creative problem-solving, and genuine care for the people he works with. He doesn’t just get deals done — he gets them done right, with clarity, integrity, and speed. When things got stressful, Duane was the steady hand I needed, always two steps ahead and laser-focused on solutions. Throughout the process, Duane was incredibly responsive (even after hours), always keeping me informed and confident in every step. He explained every detail with patience, offered insightful guidance on financing options, and made sure the entire transaction was smooth and on schedule. As both a real estate professional and a recent client, I can confidently say Duane is the kind of lender every agent wishes they could work with. He’s not just good — he’s a game-changer. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him to anyone looking to buy, refinance, or simply understand their options. If you’re lucky enough to work with Duane Buziak, you’re in the best hands.Posted on Google Keerthi GTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

Duane is an independent mortgage broker licensed in Virginia, Florida, Tennessee, and Georgia, with 15+ years of experience and $95.6M in solo loan production in 2025. As a broker — not a bank — he shops your rate across 500+ wholesale lenders to find the best terms for your specific situation. You can reach him directly at (804) 212-8663..
Refinancing can lower your monthly payment, reduce your interest rate, shorten your loan term to build equity faster, eliminate private mortgage insurance (PMI), or convert an adjustable-rate mortgage (ARM) to a fixed rate. On a $350,000 loan, dropping from 7.5% to 6.5% saves roughly $215/month — over $2,580/year. Duane Buziak reviews your exact numbers during a free, no-obligation analysis with no credit impact..
A cash-out refinance replaces your current mortgage with a new, larger loan. The difference between the old balance and the new loan amount is paid to you in cash at closing. In Virginia, Duane Buziak offers cash-out refinances up to 90% LTV — one of the highest in the market — which can be used for home improvements, debt consolidation, or investment. There is no tax on cash received through a primary-residence refinance.
Refinance closing costs in Virginia typically run 2%–3% of the loan amount, covering appraisal, title, lender fees, and recording costs. Duane Buziak offers no-out-of-pocket closing cost options on qualifying refinances, meaning those costs can be rolled into the new loan balance or offset by a lender credit in exchange for a slightly higher rate.

A streamline refinance is a simplified program for existing FHA, VA, or USDA loans that reduces paperwork, skips a new appraisal in most cases, and fast-tracks approval. For VA loan holders in Virginia, the VA IRRRL (Interest Rate Reduction Refinance Loan) can be processed with minimal documentation. FHA streamlines similarly require no new income verification if your payment history is clean. Duane Buziak closes streamline refinances quickly — often faster than a standard purchase.
Most refinances close in 21–30 days. Streamline refinances can close faster. The process starts with a free soft-pull pre-qualification — no credit impact, no cost, no obligation. Duane's 24-Hour Guarantee means you receive a clear loan decision within one business day of submitting a complete application. Call (804) 212-8663 or visit FreePreQuals.com to get started today.
Duane is an independent broker — not a bank employee with a single shelf of products. That means he shops your loan across 500+ wholesale lenders to find the lowest rate and best terms.
