Q&A with D.C. Aiken

What is the best thing about being a BankSouth Mortgage loan officer?

Making the dream come true of homeownership for my customers. I am a person who is in constant contact with my customers throughout the whole process.

What has been your biggest accomplishment in your career?

• Consistently being in the top 10 in regards to producing.
• Having served several families over my 38-year career, it’s always exciting to hear from them for either repeat service, a referral, or to help their sons and daughters purchase their first home.
• Mentoring. One of my favorite things to do is teach, coach, and train. This has always been extremely rewarding for me. I have worked with some of the best in the business and have spent a lot of my time investing in those on the field and in corporate America.

What do you enjoy doing on the weekends?

I coach high school baseball from January to May. I also served as mayor pro-tem for close to 15 years for the City of Alpharetta. However, when not on a baseball field, I love spending time with my wife and 4 kids.

Mortgage Market Interest Rates

Interest rates for mortgages can vary significantly from one borrower to the next based on the specific details of the transaction. Some of the main factors that affect the interest rate are credit score, down payment or loan-to-value, the type of mortgage, and how long the interest rate is locked.

The information below depicts average rates on a national level. These rates are not specific to BankSouth Mortgage but are provided to give a general idea of where rates are nationally for different loan types. This information is calculated from actual locked rates with customers across 35% of all mortgage transactions nationwide.

Information in this chart is for illustrative purposes only and is not intended as an advertisement. This is not a commitment to lend and does not guarantee the availability of any particular product or interest rate. Rates/terms illustrated in the chart may not be available through BankSouth Mortgage. Rates and information in this chart are powered by OBMMI™ (“Optimal Blue Mortgage Market Indices”). The OBMMI™ methodology takes the average rate of all appropriate interest rates locked through the Optimal Blue, LLC (“Optimal Blue”) product and pricing engine (“PPE”) on a given day. No adjustments to the rates that account for buy-up or buy-down decisions made by individuals are performed. These indices leverage data from Optimal Blue PPE lock requests (approximately 35% of all locks nationwide) aggregated daily and updated nightly with the previous day’s locks. Weekends and holidays are excluded. All applicable product types are included unless otherwise specified.

DC Aiken and his entire team took personal care of my wife and I during the purchase of our new home. Team Aiken provided us with excellent financing options, timely information, and immediate answers when we had questions. Even the website is easy to use from application through closing. DC's caring and expertise in a rapidly changing market was invaluable and I highly recommend BankSouth Mortgage.

DC, Terri and the whole BankSouth team took care of us from 'Day One' through closing. They were with us for every step (and stumble) we took, helping us dust ourselves off and keep pushing forward until we found our home.These are, plainly and simply, good people. Thank you for your skills and your compassion. Our dream came true thanks to you!

I cannot say enough how wonderful it was working with DC and his team. They went above and beyond for our family. We immediately felt that he cared for us and this responsibility is felt throughout his competent team. I am grateful our realtor referred us to DC. We will certainly look to him in the future for any mortgage needs.

DC went way above and beyond to ensure we were able to find the best rates and the means to obtain a loan regardless of the sale of our other property. An amazing team and very personable. Thank you sir for all that you do.

DC Aiken and his team are simply the best. DC offered the lowest rate we could find on our mortgage, and he and his team stayed in constant communication with us throughout the process. As first-time home buyers, we didn't have questions about what to expect or what to do because they gave us the answers before we even knew what to ask! The application was simple, approval was quick, and even our realtor and closing attorney were impressed by their experience with DC. Simply the BEST!

DC Aiken was very professional and pleasant to work with from day one. He helped to make my journey as a first time homebuyer super seamless. If I ever needed anything I always received a speedy response and/or clear instructions. The lines of communication were always open. It was truly a pleasure.

We had an amazing experience working with D.C Aiken and team at BankSouth. He was super transparent every step of the way, and we couldn't have asked for a better team to work with. Never in my previous experience has a company been as responsive with returning calls and emails as they have been, ensuring we were informed and stress-free each step of the way! They got us an excellent rate, and then helped us close much earlier than anyone thought was realistically possible! When we were given absurd estimates for our homeowners insurance, they've looked out for our best interest and found us a quote that was 3x cheaper. Anytime our friends or family are looking for a mortgage, we will definitely be telling them to give D.C. a call!
