My experience with Topmark Funding was outstanding since I received my first call. Rob Weljkovic was professional, timely and communicative. He not only got me funding quickly but was clear with the steps throughout the process. I enjoyed working with him definitely a guy I am going to call when I continue to expand.

The best finance company in the business as far as I am concerned. Brent goes above and beyond, even after the loan is completed. He has helped me with many things that he did not have to. I will always give my business and recommend to all.

I was trying to get a 20k loan on a cheap old cascadia and I filled out a credit request. I got denied due to it having high mileage and thought that would be the end of it but I got connected with Brent Braunstein and he got me approved in a lot newer truck. Turnaround was 3 days. He worked to get me the best deal with the lowest out of pocket costs that were in my budget. He found me this 2021 kw t680 and I’ll be picking it up in a few days

TopMark Funding made the process of funding our first truck simple and stress-free. As a new company, we really appreciated the personal touch — they didn’t just approve us, they supported us every step of the way. They call to remind us when payments are coming up and always check in to make sure everything is okay. Anytime we had a question or concern, someone reached out immediately. Their service is smooth, professional, and genuinely caring. Highly recommended!

Very professional! At the beginning I was very skeptical because of what I was doing. I’m just a poor boy from the south. Trevor kept me informed on everything,(most of the time I dreaded to hear from him ,but he was great) he can make things happen!!!!!!!! I have big dreams in the dump truck world and Trevor give me the opportunity to get something newer and more reliable!! He’s in California and I’m in Alabama and he made my dreams come true.
I would love to go have a beer or margaritas with this guy anytime!!

Worked with Top Mark for the purchase of one truck last November, overall pretty good experience. I would have liked a bit more detail of the financing aspect because it was a bit confusing at first, but honestly i would use them again if i ever needed anymore trucks. Definitely a company i would recommend to someone that wants to finance there 1st truck!
