About Derek

My high level of experience, top product knowledge, and great follow through has given me the ability to help many families bring their home ownership dreams to life.

When you choose to work with The Wetzel Team, you can count on honest, clear, and frequent communication. I believe that keeping my clients updated every step of the way is essential for their peace of mind. Timely responsiveness, thoroughness and integrity are just a few other characteristics that help me earn the trust of my clients.

In my downtime, you will often find me on the golf course or exploring new destinations with my family. Giving back to the community by donating to local charities is also a top priority for me.  I’m proud to say that I coach my kid’s sports teams.

At the end of the day, The Wetzel Team’s ultimate goal is to provide you with exceptional service that exceeds your expectations. After all, I define my success as the willingness of my past clients to recommend me to their family and friends. I look forward to working with you!

Everyone was communicative and FAST. I didn't know what I was doing so it was good to have Danielle take a closer look at my financial docs to see if we qualified. Derek worked on the weekend. Nicole worked with Ben on the student loan stuff. Everything was above and beyond. So grateful.

I recently completed a refinance on my home through ONQ Financial, and I couldn’t be more pleased with the experience. From start to finish, Derek and his team — Julie and Danielle — were absolutely outstanding. They guided me through every step of the process with professionalism, patience, and clear communication. Derek was incredibly knowledgeable and always available to answer my questions, no matter how big or small. Julie and Danielle were equally fantastic — organized, responsive, and truly on top of everything. What stood out most was how smooth and stress-free they made the entire refinance process. They worked efficiently, kept me informed, and went above and beyond to ensure we met all deadlines with ease. It’s rare to find a team that is both highly competent and genuinely caring — and that’s exactly what I found with Derek and his team. I highly recommend ONQ Financial to anyone considering a refinance or home loan. Their level of service and dedication is truly top-notch!

So, I have a unique income situation and in 2024 two companies said for sure we can get you "pre-apprroved" after I told them our income structure long story short both companies wasted two months each, pulled our credit for a zero result...this year as we intend to build a new house, we went with the Home Builders recommendation for a lender....3 months later same exact result! So our CPA recommended Derek & his company. Caleed Derek and once again tried to explain our income structure, SHOCKER Derek explained the type of different laons we could get, went with his "assests" refiniance cash-out of our current home, 3 weeks later boom! funded. Derek and everyone on his TEAM we so nice, friendly and VERY helpful, what a breath of fresh air after our prior 3 experiences! we would recommend Derek his team and On Q Home Loans to anyone that asked how did we finely get funded for our new build, THANK YOU Derek!
