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!

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!

Everyone was friendly and wanted to help. Nicole did not seem to comprehend that only one of our financial institutions allowed me to get URL on one of the forms that was needed ffrom them but not on another one of their forms.. I spent several hours trying to get the URL she wanted from various institutions even though there was no way to get it. One of my financial institutions which someone from Q Loans contacted said it was strange to be asked for a URL. The person at my institution did not even know what a URL was. The URL made this a very upleasant process despite the pleasant caring people at Q Loans. Derek was great as a calming influence.

They communicated well. They were responsive. And they got the deal done on time with a shorter closing date.
