Thomas Battistella at TopMark was an enormous help in walking me through everything I needed to get my first box truck. He was professional and patient throughout the process, always answering my calls and questions as they came. If, further down the line, I'm looking to finance another truck, I will absolutely be reaching out to Thomas again.

I have a truck and trailer financed with Topmark, usually financing is not particularly something you’d feel the need to leave a review on but from the get go Grant over there has been great from start to finish both truck and trailer. I’m not savvy with this stuff and he was extremely knowledgeable, patient when explaining things to me and pulling strings to get things done as quickly and efficiently as possible. Thanks to Scott also who helped out a bunch. Would recommend.

This was my first experience with commercial financing. I had the pleasure of working with Jasmine Kaur! She went above and beyond to make sure everything was thoroughly explained to me. Any questions I may have had, she was there to answer. I appreciate her prompt responses, and attentiveness. My overall experience with Jasmine, and Top Mark was a positive one. I will definitely be sending over referrals. Thank you!

Dealing with Nick was an absolute pleasure. I’m on unit #2 with him and every time it’s been so smooth. We had a small hiccup during one transaction due to a paperwork error no fault of anyone, and Nick spent some serious time and energy on making sure I got what I needed. I will be using them for everything

I dealt with Lance Martin at top MARK funding. He was a wonderful loan officer. Keep me on track. He helped to get the amount financed raised and also pushed for a zero down, which he also got I had dealt with several companies that said they could get it done, but couldn't I won't call those companies out and some of those companies never called back. Mr. Lance stayed on the ball, carried it all the way work between me and the dealer when above and beyond spelled everything out in black and white with crayon like most marines and infantry soldiers need will definitely go back and deal with him again he made sure the Long worked for me and at every point make sure I understood what was going on if you're looking for funding and commercial or any other entity, I would suggest giving top MARK funding a call and ask for Lance Martin. I am not the easiest person to work with and he done a wonderful job.

Working with Lance at TopMark Funding was truly a great experience. After speaking with two other lenders and facing several hurdles, Lance was the third lender we connected with and he went above and beyond to help us get this deal done. From the beginning, he was consistent in his communication, transparent about expectations, and willing to work through the details with us. As new business owners stepping into entrepreneurship, the process could have easily felt overwhelming. Instead, Lance helped guide us through each step and made sure we understood what was needed to move forward. We genuinely appreciate the time, patience, and effort he put into helping us secure financing for our truck. This purchase represents a major step forward for our family and our business, and we are grateful to have worked with someone who was committed to seeing it through. Thank you, Lance, for helping us get started on this journey. RoadBox Logistics LLC

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
