Chum Balk | SouthState Mortgage

Chum and South State Bank made the loan process for first home buyers like me easy and stress-free. Their team was super helpful and guided me through every step. Highly recommend!

Working with Chum was an absolute pleasure from start to finish. He made the entire mortgage process smooth, stress-free, and easy to understand. Chum went above and beyond to find the best rate and loan structure for our situation, and his attention to detail gave us full confidence in the process. If you're looking for someone who truly has your best interests at heart, Chum is your guy. Highly recommend!

Chum is the best of the best. Helped us with every step, during a time with uncertain mortgage rates to find the best solution for us. Highly recommend, in fact, we already did! We have family moving and they’re working with him too. Thanks, Chum, for all your help!

Chum Balk with SouthState Mortgage made the experience of obtaining a loan on our new home a breeze. Communication was always prompt and very helpful throughout this process. I can highly recommend using him.

My husband and I have wanted to be homeowners for nearly a decade. We were finally able to start saving, paying off debt, and started the home buying process. However, we didn’t know if we had done enough. Our realtors have worked with Chum before and immediately said that they knew the lender for us. They were ever so right. Chum was so great with our inexperienced first time buyer needs. He always got back to us quickly when we had questions. It really felt like he did everything he could to get us the best loan and loan features possible for us. Closing on our first and forever home was a breeze… due largely in part to the hard work of Chum and everyone at South State. We could not be more grateful to him and cannot recommend him highly enough.
