I've dealt with Derek Brickley and Thomas Walsh one two different occasions. To purchase my home as well as refinancing at a later date. The refinance actually started with Freedom Mortgage but the boys quickly beat their offer and handled things much more professionally and speedy fast to say the least. Far more than the other company was doing. Derek and Thomas are right on key when it comes to prompt replies and explaining anything you need in detail. Extremely helpful. I can not say enough about these guys. Very personable. Very kind. Professional. Timely. Hoping everyone that chooses this company gets to walk away with the same experience I received.

I found Derek and Gold Star through a coworker and was hesitant to even speak with them at first as so many other mortgage companies did not like the industry I work in. I'm a first-time home buyer, and I must say Derek at Gold Star went above and beyond with how helpful and patient he has been through this whole process. His knowledge of the industry and the way he communicates, no matter what you need, is top-notch. I highly recommend him and Gold Star for all your mortgage needs, and I will be recommending him to everyone I know looking to buy a house now or in the future!

Derek was the loan officer and I was the listing agent. He was a pleasure to work with and kept me informed during the process. Definitely recommend.

My Husband and I recently purchased a home in Tennessee and used Derek and his team as our lending specialist. Their approach to a different type of lending option that matched our situation was truly outstanding and they realize that one size does not fit all when it comes to home buying. The entire process was seamless and very easy to understand and process from beginning to end. Thank you for helping make our dreams come true!

Being a first time home buyer is daunting to say the lease, but Dereck Brickley and Gold Star Mortage made it pretty easy. He explained everything every step of the way, and with my VA benefits, he got me a great deal on my duplex, and in it quick!

My family is very lucky to work with Derek Brickley and successfully bought our dream house. It is so amazing. 1. When others say NO to me, Derek tells me YES! My case was quite complicated and the underwriting took a long time. Derek gave me a lot of helpful suggestions and I finally got the loan with a very good interest rate. 2. Derek works very hard! He is working so hard, even on weekends or even midnight, Derek will keep communicating with me on the phone. 3. “Your problem is my problem!” I still remember Derek telling me “Your problem is my problem!" when I had trouble applying for a loan. Thank you so much, my brother.

Derek, at Gold Star Mortgage Financial Group, made my relocation a success beyond any expectation that I had. I was skeptical that I would be able to relocate from California to Michigan and have a home waiting for me. However, it happened! I am in my new home and new job and settling in as a Michigander! Derek was able to assist me through the process of buying a home, even before I started my new job, here in Michigan. All I had to show was proof that I had a job waiting for me, a start date and salary/benefit information. My employer provided a letter with all of the information that was needed. The rest of the process unfolded, in the customary way for purchasing a home/property. It was awesome to be able to have a home waiting for me and not having to rent a place to live while I made the purchase of a house. I have been in my new home since October 2023 and, I am still amazed at how it all fell into place, as easily as it did. Thanks to Derek and his team at Gold Star Mortgage for making it all happen for me! I am truly appreciative for all they did for me!
