The most helpful thing to me was that 21st Mortgage would give me a home loan on a mobile home. That’s what I was having a hard time getting approved. A lot of companies don’t do mobile homes or manufactured homes. The application was pretty straightforward -- just fill out an application and get approval, just like I would for a normal home loan. The loan officer was also always available when I needed to contact him.

Buyer beware, this company is not one you can trust. Last summer we tried to buy a mobile home in partnership with Camelot Homes in NH. The whole process of gathering paperwork required calling and emailing everyone involved almost daily. 21st Mortgage has a habit of not communicating exactly what they need. They give vague bullet points, expect you to know exactly what they are talking about, and even when you've submitted paperwork they won't communicate if it is what they need or even if they got the paperwork. Timeliness is important for a company you're using to finance a place to live and 21st Mortgage exercised none of that.
To make matters worse, Camelot homes didn't deliver the trailer and canceled the whole process without resolving the loan with 21st Mortgage. We are out thousands of dollars without a place to live, and through this nightmare and 21st is still sending bills for "interest" on a loan for a mobile home that was never even built. Even though we shouldn't be paying because of what Camelot did, we have paid the balance of the bill.
And even though we've sent them the money for the balance of the bill, the next month we got another bill for more interest. Tammy **, the only contact that 21st has provided, refused to give us the information we needed for over a month, and for weeks would just stop communicating. All we want is to close this horrible chapter in our lives but no one will give us information or a person to talk to to resolve this. All we have gotten are continuous bills for interest on a non-existent mobile home on account we have already paid off, with no one to call or email to figure this out. I have reached out to Tammy ** for information and she refuses to help. The lack of professional and communication when dealing with people's money is borderline criminal and I can't sit here and be quiet about it any longer.
Chelsea,

I was trying to buy a manufactured home and I was referred to 21 Mortgage by TLC, the mortgage place that I was trying to buy the house from. The application and underwriting process took about a month and a half, and the rep was very informative. They were in touch with me all the time.

I found 21st Mortgage some years back on a different deal I was going to do. They were the only one that really wanted to do my deals. The process was straightforward. It took time, but it wasn't due to their fault. They were ready to go pretty quickly. It's just that the seller had to get some additional paperwork that we were waiting on. The rep, Adam, was very punctual, followed up, quick to respond, and clarified everything.

My Realtor gave to me 21st Mortgage to call. Application and underwriting didn't take long, about three weeks. Working with Kelly was great. The only mishap they had was they messed up the serial number, so I had to resend in the paperwork again. But it was one piece of paper and it wasn't too big of deal. Also, after the closing date or just before I signed my papers, there was a pipe that burst inside the house, and it's a mobile home. Needless to say, I'm not getting the house anymore. I'm already getting my money back from the sellers.
I called 21st to see if there was any way they could work with me because I couldn't live in the house. We are waiting for an insurance claim to go through. But they weren't willing to do anything. I wasn't trying to get out of making a payment. I just want them to push the payment because I couldn't live in the house anyway. That's all in the previous owner's insurance. At this point, I've already talked to the sellers. I got my money back yesterday, and I'm gonna pay off 21st Mortgage by the end of the month just to be done with it. I'm basically selling the house back to the previous owners.

We have been with 21st Mortgage since 2015 and have received nothing but help and understanding. In every uncertain situation in the past and the present situation we are facing 21st mortgage has met us with compassion and has personally strived to give any and every bit of relief that they can offer. We greatly appreciate the way they have accommodated us and given relief in uncertain times, it has truly helped to know that helping customers and putting people and their situations first matters to them and it shows in the service they provide.

My ex and I had a mortgage together. When he left, 21st Mortgage had no problems getting him off and starting a new mortgage. I was very happy with them. But it took so long was because my ex was dragging his feet. 21st was right on top of everything. When I send them an email, I would get a reply back within an hour or two. It took a while to get my ex to sign off on the paperwork so it was a month later and every day I was like, “Should I send in my payment then for the old mortgage?” I would be told to go ahead and pay that. I accidentally signed some papers which were supposed to be notarized and their rep sent them right back to me. It was a great experience. I ended up with a lower rate and my payment would be $80 less a month. I was very happy with it. I still pay the amount that I was paying before because that was what I was expecting to pay. But it’s nice to know that if I can’t pay that extra money, it went down $80.

I was buying a house for the first time. I went through 21st Mortgage and they did a really good job. I was very pleased with it. I really didn’t know about 21st Mortgage until someone told me how easy it was to do it with them. And the process was pretty easy. My loan rep was Lindsay and she was awesome. Every time I would call her with a question or something, she was pretty responsive. 21st was really good but it was kind of a slow process with the seller. There were difficulties with the appraiser too. It took forever to get the appraiser when they had to go out and appraise the house. A lot of the problems were more on the outside people than 21st. Keep up the good work 21st.

We purchased a second home in Florida in a 55-and-up community. We needed to do a little bit of creative financing because of the fact that I didn’t realize we couldn’t go traditional. We went with 21st Mortgage and everything went fine. The process was nice and easy. And I can't say enough about the loan rep I got. He was really that good. I was in the mortgage business before the big bubble hit so I know how hard it is to do that job. He was very patient with the park that we purchased the home in because they were just very tough and they were trying to play games through the whole thing. He followed the rules, didn’t bend, and still closed. I was very happy.
But there are some things that could be improved like being able to do without physical copies and being able to do electronic signatures or scans. That would have been a little bit helpful. I could have just printed off a package, had it notarized and either scanned it back or mailed that back. But I had to wait for the physical copies to come in the mail and that seemed to be a little bit behind. I don’t see why I couldn’t have printed those exact same copies.

My girlfriend had heard of 21st Mortgage and was very comfortable going with them. They were one of the few that were mortgaging mobile homes. I was ready to buy so we called 21st, talked to them, and worked everything out. We basically did it all over the phone. It was pretty good. It happened really fast and we were happy and thankful for that. It wasn't a long, drawn-out process. Once the process started, it was all pretty quick how everything got done. The rep over the phone was good too. The application process wasn't difficult but it was a process to do it. My girlfriend filled out the application while I was at work and that was done online. There was all the detailed information and remembering everything from the past.
We went for a mobile home. I could've gotten a first-time homebuyers program, but it was a mobile home so that disqualified me from it. It would have to be a conventional one. Overall, we had a good experience. We felt really comfortable and 21st's people were excellent when we had questions. I would recommend to friends and family to use 21st.

We were buying and we had a mortgage person who was helping us but he couldn't get us anything for what we were looking for so he referred us to 21st Mortgage. I spoke with Chris a lot through email and I also called him like 100 times today. The only thing is our time difference but we figured that out after the first week. There is a time difference of about three hours but if he wasn't available, anyone else in the team was available. Our whole process took about six weeks but that was just because of financing on our end. We weren't expecting to buy a house so it took a little bit longer to scrape up pennies. But also, we haven't received our coupon book for our payment. However, overall, the experience has been good.

We wanted to get out of renting so we wanted to buy. There was hardly any provider that will do a loan for manufactured homes and in the end, we went with 21st Mortgage. But we had a terrible experience. Every time we tried contacting the guy we went through, it took us forever just to hear from him again. Every time we tried calling him, he was never in his office. When he did answer, he was pretty decent. We told him we needed to get this taken care of but he got lippy and said he was busy and he had other people. We get that but we were on a time crunch and he knew that 'cause our lease was ending. Our process dragged out and took a good 45 days. Overall, it was decent but going through him, we almost tried looking for another mortgage company.

Everything was pretty smooth with 21st Mortgage. From beginning to end, the process took two months to be completed, which was reasonable. I'm 21 and given my age, I was satisfied with the rates and terms I got.

Everything went smooth. The process was really short because we had already, on the previous property, applied for the loan. Back in November, we first started hunting for property in Texas. So, as soon as I got the application, I filled it in, sent it back the very next day, but we were rejected. They said, “Nope. We’re not going to fund the loan for you.” And I said, “Why?” Because they didn’t give me an explanation. I was talking via email with Tyler who was the one that denied it. I emailed him back, and I said, “Why?” And he said, “Well, unless your husband’s business is also moving from Minnesota to Texas, we can’t fund the loan.” They didn’t say that in the first place and they didn’t call me to find out anything. There was no communication at all.
I said, “Okay. First of all, my husband does not work for a company within Minnesota. His company is based out at Houston. He works from home. So, when we moved from home to Texas, he will be working out of his home.” Then they said, “Well, then we could approve this if we can get a letter from his company stating that it would not impact his job.” That should have been said right upfront. That wasted at least a week of time.
My husband's company wrote that letter up that very same day. I submitted the email address for Tyler so that it would get flashed to him. And then they said, “Okay, we’ll fund it.” So, we got funded. The property fell through on that, and that was one of the reasons why, it was because of the holdup on getting funded. We were first looking at a property in Mission, Texas, and between that holdup and the owners of that property and their holdup, the title company’s closing date that was set for January 3rd fell through.
And they said, “We can’t close until the 24th of January,” and the seller said, “Nope. We’re not going to sign a 21-day extension. We’re also not going to give them back their earnest money. We’re not going to hold them harmless since, a matter of fact, we’re bringing them to court for not closing on time.” We ended up paying out all that money for the appraisal and the inspection on the property, and the whole thing fell through.
It has not been a pleasant experience because to begin with, 21st Mortgage should not just automatically hit the denial button without asking questions. That was their first major mistake because we were making over $90,000 a year. Why would you deny somebody when you see somebody making that kind of money and just instantly hit denial? Wouldn’t you be asking questions first? You’re turning away a good customer by assuming and not even saying why you’re denying. Now, other people will go, “Oh, gosh. We can’t get the loan, so we’re gonna stop and not do this.” The average person would have caved completely. But I’m not like that. I was in the mortgage industry for 35 years. I’ve dealt with attorneys and underwritings to no end and I know when something smells wrong. And that is the worst-case scenario right there.
Now, on this property, the guy that owned it, he just wanted out. He flipped this property and wanted to sell it and get out. So, it went smooth. And when we sold the property up in Minnesota, we paid off this property, 21st Mortgage got paid off. And no one lost. Will I recommend anybody to go through 21st Mortgage for their loan? No, I would not and that’s why.

NO HELP W/ COVID 19. I called 21st Mortgage concerning the covid 19. I have been a customer for 5 years. Never made a late payment. Their websites says to call they options to help customers. So I called and asked about the options. They would not give me any options. Wanted to know how much I could pay, when I was going back to work, when would I get my stimulus check, and to call other lenders like car payments will defer for 120 days, electric and all would not disconnect so just get back with them closer to payment due date to give a update on info....
1st of all I have been ordered by a dr to stay in. I have severe asthma and am self employed so there goes my income. My husband was in contact at work with a employee who has it so now we are both under quarantine. I think everyone would like to know when they can go back to work. I think everyone would like to know when they're getting their stimulus check and really we have no idea what electric companies are going to do state to state. Seeing how I have a breathing machine I can't chance losing power. I called in plenty of time to make arrangements so I would not be reported to credit bureau. He would not answer when I asked if they would be reporting customers who were late during this pandemic.. I hope the government checks when this is over at companies who were not willing to help during this crisis.
I have read so many mortgage companies, car companies, bank, insurance companies have and are going out of their way to help customers and then there's this company. It's just unimaginable this is how they conduct business during a world CRISIS. How do they stay in business. If you can't help good customers you don't even deserve to be in business....I'm sorry I have no idea when everything will be back to normal. I have also filed for unemployment and it's been not only a nightmare. No clue when or if it goes thru..Basically I hope this is SERIOUSLY looked at after all this and COMPANIES ARE PUNISHED OR SHUT DOWN. This is no cause of any customer so why be rude and not help. Everyone is stressed and scared. But ALL this company cares about is getting their money above everyone else no matter the circumstances. I guess power, insurance, pharmacy bills etc are not important to them. Just them...
This company only cares about their company not" real people in crisis at no cause of their own... I'm sure they do not care. Most companies with this behavior do not but I do believe in the end they will lose if nothing else. The good lord above is watching. And a big thanks to all the understanding, mortgage companies, banks, insurance, car companies I could go on and on who are willing to help customers..their generosity and caring about the customers just goes above and beyond what must people imagined and I do believe they will be rewarded and very blessed in days ahead... So glad there are good companies out there I suggest everyone finding one. And this 21st mortgage is not it...

21st was the only one available to do the type of loan that I needed and getting a loan with them was great. I started in December and ended in March, so all in all, it took about three months. I had a problem in the underwriting process and there was a lot of misunderstanding between the documents that I sent. It seemed that I'd be sending the same documents over and over and they kept asking for the same one that I had already sent. It's like they're not looking at what I sent and they didn't understand what I was sending. But besides that, it was fine. The loan officer was awesome and she was very attentive.

The application process was easy because Adam emailed it to me, and I filled it out and emailed it back to him. He had a question or two and I answered him and, it was done. It was very easy and efficient. The application and underwriting process took about 15 days. But a lot of that was because I was trying to get information to him from other people.

Everything with 21st Mortgage was very smooth. There was only one issue, and that was the down payment, and it was probably because we started two weeks prior to this pandemic. The rep, Tyler, kept up very well, but just the down payment was a little confusing. But that’s pretty much it and that was just probably numbers being transposed. He answered all of our questions. If he wasn’t sure, then he would get back with us and let us know. He was on point as far as estimated time frame and documentation needed.
I was a little discouraged by the rate, only because I have owned homes before. And my highest interest rate on that that I’ve owned was 7%, and that was back in 2006. But I know that the rates have fallen since then. I did buy a home at 3.1% previously, but I know that the rate, when they came back from Tyler, was around a bit over 10%. And to me, that was extremely high, but I’ve never owned a mobile home. It was one of those quick moves, relocate from East Texas to Central Texas. And I’m still not content with the 9 point something. That’s too high for having been a previous owner of actual homes and the credit score that I had, which has gone down because they had me run my score and all that stuff.

At first, I tried to get a mortgage through someone else, but their website was hard to navigate. Then 21st was the second one on the list and their website was a little bit easier to navigate. However, I wasn’t happy with the process of obtaining my mortgage, but that’s because I work in a mortgage company, and I kinda know how things run on my end. It didn’t quite go that way on 21st Mortgage.
We were doing a loan on a home that we want on the property in a 55+ park. If it wasn’t for that, I would have gone through my mortgage to get the loan because the process took quite a while to finish up. In fact, the seller was a little aggravated about how long it took. Moreover, we were never really kept in the loop of exactly where the file was at. I wasn’t even sure who I was dealing with and whether the person I was talking to was a loan officer, a processor, an underwriter, or just some Joe with the company.
I know I can’t have the actual title because 21st Century is gonna hold it until it’s paid in full. But when I called and asked for a copy of the title of the home, the rep didn’t say, that he'd get it to me as soon as it came in. He said to call back in a week. I’m thought, "Way to go way above and beyond your job.” I still don’t have it and I haven’t called because I’m just too busy. I work from 6:00 AM to around 9:00 PM every day. All in all, I wasn’t completely unsatisfied, but I wasn’t satisfied either.

She was on the money and I knew every step of the way what was going on. For any questions I had, she called me right back and she was very pleasant to work with. The application and underwriting took about 45 days as there were some other things involved prior to them getting involved. Still, the time frame was great.

I purchased a home for my sister and brother-in-law, and they were financed through 21st. So, I figured it would be the easier route to go, just doing it straight back through them. It was a struggling process, and it wound up going to my brother-in-law’s credit, and it was late because it took so long. I paid $280 more for an appraisal than I should have.
I used my land as my down payment as part of a collateral loan. At first, the 21st rep sent me everything that he needed and I got it over to him quickly. I did everything fast on my end. And then, he would need this or he would need that. I sent my stuff and my brother-in-law’s stuff in one file to him. So, he had everything he needed right then and there. I made it simple as possible. I started the process online on December 9th, and I heard from him around the 11th. I had everything to him by the 13th. So, it was a pretty fast process as far as that goes, but then, we wounded up not closing until January 24th. At one point, the hold came down to the title company. They said that I had an issue on the land, that there was a mobile home prior that was immobilized to the property, so they got all that fixed. But it was a Friday at Christmas time that the files was sent over. When they got in on Monday, the title company got on it.
The appraiser came out on the 27th of December. I was unhappy with that process too because my dad had to help him measure things. My dad had to pull away skirting for him to get whatever he needed. My dad was helping him do the whole appraisal. And then, the price was supposedly $380 for his appraisal, and they charged me $600 for it. I argued the point from the beginning. I said, “I’ve never paid over $450 for an appraisal for anything, nor had I heard anybody paying over $$450.” The $450 is on the high-end.
I sent an email to Dart, and it was unanswered. I complained to Ryan who was my loan coordinator about it all. And he said, “Well, that’s the rates we’re given.” On the week of closing, he came back to me. And because it had taken so long, there was an additional 200 and something dollars that had occurred. So, it was like $61,241. The payoff that we were given when I started the process was $6,100 and something. Once everything was said and done, it wound up at 62,000 because of interest, and this and that. It was all kinds of things they threw at me. I just wanted the process done. I could have been really ugly and told them to come get that thing because it was on my property and it had cost over 10 grand to move that unit. If they would have repossessed that unit, it would have cost them all over 10 grand to move it. It’s a double-wide.
It was a very aggravating process. I thought with 21st, it would be smooth. When the loan was being funded, instead of them just funding the loan to the prior number to my brother-in-law, they sent a check to my closing company, and then, my closing company had sent the same check back. Instead of them just in-house doing that transaction.
Ryan has to just follow the process, and he was not the underlying factor of who made that decision of how it had to go down. He’s following what procedure was in place. He came back and answered every question I had in a very timely manner. With some questions he couldn’t answer, he got me an answer for it. So, it’s the process. I understand the process. It needs to be a whole lot more simplified. Fees need to be readjusted because the fees that were being charged were astronomically high, especially for our area. They don’t need to use Dart. For an appraiser to come in and say he charged $385 for that appraisal, but the customer was charged, through Dart, $600 for that appraisal, that’s kind of upsetting. There’s $200 and something difference right there that you're pushing off on this customer.
Another thing that really aggravated me was my brother and sister-in-law had this trailer financed with 21st for over three years out of 8-point-something interest rate. So, they had already collected over $15,000 interest from them on this loan. And then, there isn't any wiggle room on the purchase price or any of that taken into factor towards the payoffs. I’m stuck at $62,000 right now when I could have told them to come get this thing, and it’d cost them $10,000. Then, I would have charged them lot rent that I was charging them for the whole time that it sat there. I’m pretty dissatisfied with 21st. And if I would have had more time, I would have found a different avenue to go through.

We bought a mobile home and there are limited people that will actually finance a mobile home. 21st Mortgage was recommended by a realtor and the process was long, but that happens and it went fine. I’m here in California and they're somewhere 3 hours ahead of us. That is difficult for people on the West Coast because I would send them stuff and I wouldn’t get a answer until the next morning. They tried to be on top of it, but they don’t match our hours. I do accounts at work and I have a vendor that’s actually in India who works my hours. He comes in in the middle of the night to match my hours. In the same way, it would be nice if 21st had a couple of people that were able to do that, from underwriting to customer service. Adam, who helped us, was really nice and he stayed a little bit later, but still, it’s the time difference thing.
Another thing was it really wasn’t their fault that sellers were dragging their feet on stuff and there were some issues with the realtor and the seller. We had a little bit of a communication because they wanted to understand where my deposit was coming from for the down payment. Because it was coming from a third person, underwriting would say, “No,” and then Adam would tell me. And I’d say, “What exactly do you want me to tell you?” because of the timeline. Even with modern technology, I had to go into the bank and Wells Fargo is really nice. I had to get a confirmation about the deposits and that was a little bit more difficult than I thought it should be. But I understand why they want to know where the down payment is coming from. So, it seemed part of it was the time difference and part of it was not dealing directly with underwriting, which I understand underwriting doesn’t deal directly with the borrower but that was still a little difficult.

I’ve got a certain type of home and they were hard to finance. 21st Mortgage was the only place I could find then that would give mortgage loan. Their mortgage process was very good. We had a lady that was helpful to us. She was very prompt and whenever I send her an email, she’d get right back to me. She was all-around good lady. However, the application process was a little more difficult than it could have been. What we bought was a manufactured home, which doesn’t have a real estate. We’re sitting on a leased lot. They did a full appraisal and they did some stuff that I wouldn’t have thought they would have done based on it being a leased lot, which was okay. I was just surprised it wasn’t more like a car loan. Because that’s what this home is. This home has a title that’s filed with the Department of Motor Vehicles right now. The whole process took no more than two weeks, which is very good.
Overall, I got a fine home through 21st Mortgage at a decent price. 21st Mortgage is a fine company. It did the job I wanted. The only problem is the interest rate is high, somewhere around 9.75% to 10%. And in this day and age, it’s horrible. My wife and I have credit scores up around 800. I thought, I’d do better. So, I was disappointed with it. But it’s gonna wind up being paid off way early anyhow, so it won’t cost me that much. Also, I asked for 20 and they said, “We can’t give you 20 because of your age.” I guess they figured I was gonna die before it was paid off. But that was not the mortgage company’s fault. That was a federal regulation. I'm old and at my age, I can only get a loan of up to 13 years.

However, we had to wait a while because I was still married from a previous relationship. We found out that in the state of Texas, I had to be legally divorced before I could finish the loan up. We had to wait for the divorce to get finalized before we could finalize everything. I told them that it was gonna be 60 days from then but it ended up taking close to four months. But they were patient with me and took care of me. The rep had mentioned something about having to redo my credit after so many days.

We had a couple of struggles we had to jump through when we bought the property with the previous owner.
The owner got put in an assisted living facility and his son was taking over on the estate. We found out that he had a wife that passed away. Her name was on the will and it was never probated. We had a few options we had to jump through to try to get everything approved to get it to them but it was just too much work to get the loan. It wasn't comfortable, but we got through it.
Their loan officers all needed training. The loan officer I worked with was even out for a couple of times. A couple of his co-workers would tell me, "We're gonna have to wait till he gets back."

But during the application process, they asked for a lot of things multiple times. The guy handling the paperwork asked for things over and over again, which was a hassle.

I sent everything they asked for through the email, but they never could get any of it and didn't realize that they were getting it.
My land was tied in with the initial loan and they did an appraisal. The way that was supposed to work was that if the property and land appraised for higher than what they were expecting, then I would require no down payment and I would get the lowest interest rate that they offer. After the appraisal that I had to pay for, I found out that 21st Mortgage had lied.
I appraised at 130,000, but they decided to take what they considered the value of the house which was 83,000, which left me with a higher interest rate. I had improvements to the property and they said if I could show proof and receipts for the improvements, they would credit that. I don’t have a receipt for a tree that I went outside and cut with my own chainsaw. It put me in a box that I shouldn’t have been in. I didn’t credit for my hard work and labor in the property or the value of the land.

I had my other mobile home mortgage with Vanderbilt and I just wanted to try out 21st Mortgage. They were a bit better with working with the older homes. However, I was very unsatisfied with the closing. I worked it with American Financing doing closings, and we didn’t have any kind of problems like we had. There should have been a conference call while I was going through the paperwork, because I made mistakes and it delayed everything. So, the closing didn’t spun for at least another three or four days because of stuff on the paperwork. If the paper was wrong, there was no way to just fax it. It had to be FedExed overnight. So, I’m not happy with how that was done.
I also wasn’t told that my interest rate went up three points with my down payment. My mortgage was under 50,000, so I didn’t know that. Had I known that, I would have never put the money down. But it was too late. I had to close on this house. I had sellers that were getting very anxious. And then, my $200 that I put down as earnest money deposit became an issue and held things up. We had to do the special little letter saying that the seller was gonna give me back the $200. I don’t understand why it wasn’t deducted right out of the purchase price. Everything was such a mess and too stressful for less than $50,000 mortgage. I’ve seen $500,000 mortgages go a lot smoother than that.
The loan officer that I worked with was nice. I like her, but she should have been on top of things, making me aware that once I go under $50,000 mortgage, my interest rate would not be 9.69 anymore. That it'd be 12.5 or 12.9. A big difference. So now, my biggest race is to pay down my mortgage as fast as possible. But I didn’t want that. I'm trying to remodel this place. So, they could've disclosed things a bit better, explained things when it comes to that. I can do closing, but not the trailer stuff. I answered things stupidly and I should have had someone right there to say, “No, no. You’re missing this check mark.” All because of the check mark that I put in the wrong place delayed the closing an extra day, and it’s just frustrating. Because it cost me over $100 to stay myself and my two pets in a hotel. So, it cost me over $100 more every day.
I do like the fact that the packages get FedExed. And then, I can sit down and do the closing wherever I’m at. I would have even paid $50 or $75 just to have a notary that was familiar with all the paperwork, make sure I got every signature, every check mark, or if I could have faxed everything over first before I put it in the FedEx to make sure that before I send it overnight, everything was done right. That would have really made a difference. She would have said, “No, we have to have the original here in the office.” Just so I’m not missing anything. She’s a notary who does closings, but she’s not familiar with all that stuff.
The fact that 21st Mortgage went for mobile homes is wonderful because there’s no one else around that would do it. Even a private lender would charge me that much in points. So, they still have a lower mortgage payment. But I can’t refinance because if I refinance, I’m still going with the high-interest rate, so I’m not happy with that.

But Adam, our loan officer, was good. Everybody that I talked to was nice. Working with 21st Mortgage has been good. They could be a little bit faster, but it's okay. I would go with them again.

21st Mortgage was the company that my broker could get that was attached to most of the trailer homes in this area, and I went with what he said. During the application and underwriting process, it seemed like things were a little more restricted and standard. I had several issues that needed more paperwork, so it made things dragged out. Overall, it took a little over a month. But it wasn’t unnaturally long, it was just that we had a restricted timeline. So, we would be told that we were good, then we were told that we needed to get this and that. And there were a couple of issues on my broker’s end that made it to where there was a problem there as well. But it wasn’t like the underwriters themselves were making it more difficult.
I had originally planned on putting in for a land contract, and the broker said to fill out 21st's application based on the idea that that was me submitting information to the broker for the purpose of a land contract. And when the land contract fell through, he submitted the application with all of the original information which had my wife’s vehicle on it and a couple other situations. So, it made it to where it increased my debt-to-income ratio, even though her vehicle wasn’t on my credit report.
Also, my job has bad record keeping and they only really show year-to-date based on what I had been paid for that period. So, if I'm on second shift, their record goes a year-to-date for second shift for that pay period. But if I hadn’t done any first shift work, it didn’t include first shift on year-to-date at all. So, I had to go and get more paperwork there. I had to get the title of my wife’s car to get that cleared off, too. Then I had to go get the pay-off note for my car because right when I sold the house, I paid my car off.
Other than that, the loan officer I had worked with me really well even though that situation wasn’t so simple. His name was Joe and he made sure to get back to the underwriters to try to clarify whatever paperwork I needed to get done. But at times, it was difficult to try to get ahold of someone to figure out exactly what was needed. Joe was busy a lot, so when he wasn’t available, it was difficult to try to get any kind of clarification from anyone else in the company.
Jherek, we are so pleased that you had a good experience with Joe and we are sorry you felt frustrated at times during the application process.

The whole process of obtaining the mortgage with 21st Mortgagre was a huge pain in the **. It was just a tremendous process I had to go through. It should have taken like a week, but it took six because they were so picky and ridiculously, the stuff they needed. They kept saying there were some that they didn’t get. But I said I sent them two times. Also, I had to refinance because I had to finance in my own name, and the terms that they gave me was twice as long as what I had before. There should have been a little more leeway, especially my credit score is 805. I should have gotten better terms than what I got. I’ve had easier time refinancing houses than I did with this thing. It was really annoying and I’m just glad it’s over. But they were very good in staying in contact with me the whole process.

I was in a position with work where I needed to do something different to get my finances in a better situation. I was financing this home, paying $2,000 a month on it, and I needed to get that into a more manageable number. So, I refinanced with 21st Mortgage. When it comes to Ryan, the guy I dealt with, it couldn’t have been better. He always answered his phone, called me back, and walked me through the process step-by-step. There were no glitches and no issues at all.
He took a little vacation during the Thanksgiving holidays, but as soon as he came back in, he returned my phone calls and got everything taken care of. In that little eight-day period, however, I was still trying to get some things done and I was trying to deal with other people who weren’t completely familiar with the entire situation. So, that was a little bit difficult, but it was understandable. Ryan got a good memory. I don’t know how many people he deals with on a daily basis, but you can call him and off the top of his head, he can recall all the details of previous conversations. Overall, I went from something that was super complicated to a pretty easy step-by-step process of getting everything financed and getting it taken care of. And I went from my owner-financed situation to finance it on my own. It was wonderful. It took less than 45 days from the time I applied to the time I closed.

We were browsing and came across 21st. One of my husband’s friends referred us too. We got a conventional loan and the process of financing was very long. We started in July of last year and we closed in December. We had a bunch of hang-ups and that was frustrating. From the beginning to the end, there were a lot of issues. Nikki, the lady who was doing it was very good. She was perfect, very sweet and she helped us out. She did what she could. We wanted to get this done and we were bugging her and driving her crazy. We were asking the underwriter questions directly too and he would say okay. We were asking what we needed and it got down to inspection and he said we needed an inspection to make sure the mobile home was fine. So, then, we asked what kind of inspection he wanted and if a four-point inspection would work. He said yes, so we got it. We had to pay for that and then, he hemmed and hawed around.
It was a couple of weeks before we heard back. I called the underwriter and asked what was going on because we were just waiting on hold. He said the inspection wouldn’t work and we needed a different one. We got frustrated with that because if he had said in the beginning that we needed a regular, full inspection, then we wouldn’t had to spend money on a four-point inspection. So, we got an inspection, and it came back to where we needed stuff to be fixed. We came out of our own pocket because the seller fixed a little bit, but be he wasn’t willing to go as far as what the inspection needed. Then once we had it reinspected, the inspector came out.
Everything that the underwriter wanted was completed but he was still dragging his feet. Even the inspector sent him an email because the inspector got very upset and said the underwriter was trying to undermine him. It was a complete runaround at the end and we got so frustrated that we almost stopped. We weren’t happy at all toward the end with the inspection with the underwriter, because everything was completed and it took us a couple of months after the inspection to even start going again. It was not good. 21st Mortgage should tell us what they actually need and want before we go through with it for stuff to go smoother because it was terrible. It was a nightmare.

When I was purchasing a single wide, I went through a handful of different places and 21st Mortgage was the only place that would even consider financing it. The application and underwriting process took some time. I put in the application right at the end of August, but I didn’t close until Black Friday. There was an issue with the title of the mobile home. It was still showing a lien on it even though there wasn’t a lien against the house. It was the State of North Carolina's fault and getting a new title on the house that took so long.
The term shocked me with how long it was considering that I financed a truck for a much shorter term. The interest rate was also a little high, but with the age of the house and the normal financing on a mobile home, I understand why. However, the loan officer was able to answer any questions I had almost immediately and she kept me updated on everything. I’ve never purchased a house and all of it was a little confusing to me. But she was straightforward in answering any questions or concerns that I had.

21st Mortgage's application process took a total of three months. It was somewhat sporadic and at times, confusing. Instead of emailing back and forth trying to get things right, it would've been nice if the document gathering was available online. Then the documents could've been uploaded on the website and reviewed without having it pass through somebody else. My lending officer would tell me what they needed, but suddenly, they didn't need it anymore. And some of the things that they said they needed didn't make sense at all, to begin with, which was where the confusion came in. But I don't know that it was him so much as it was underwriting. He was always trying to be very informative and keep on top of things and I always appreciated that. And he did help me out quite a bit with understanding the process in general.

My wife had a loan through 21st Mortgage for our home. I own the property and she owned the house. So we figured to just combine it all into one. Overall, the experience with 21st Mortgage was very good. Ryan, the one whom we dealt with, was very quick to reply to an email and was very professional. He was a pleasure to do business with. The only thing, I felt we were out of the loop on was that we had an appraiser that we paid to come out and do an appraisal on the property. But we didn't get any information on that.
I wasn't too keen with the lady that did all the notary as well. She was very sweet but she just seemed to be a little unorganized. We had to go back a second day to go meet. And we questioned one of the papers. We felt like we needed to sign, but she was like, "No, you don't need to sign that." We figured she knows what she's doing. She called me four days later that we needed to go back and sign that paper, and that was what was holding us up. Luckily, she wasn't that far from our office, so we were able to go meet up with her. It's still wasn't a bad thing. And my wife and I both were just waiting for something to pop that, "Oh, no. We can't do it." But we never got that.
We feel a lot better now that it's over. I still have questions because of the way it was though. It was two different pieces of properties subdivided that we all merged in together. And with you coming in only appraising one piece of the property, how does that work with the other piece of property. It was all paid for, but I'm just not sure how that falls into the equation. They could've explained that a little further. But Ryan was very good. The only downside was that we had to ask him, and he didn't hesitate to give us an answer even if he did not have the answer and shot straight and said, "I'm not sure about that. Let me find out." And he did. He followed up with us and he gave us the answer for the questions that we were asking.

21st Mortgage was on a list of possible lenders that was given to us by a manufactured home dealer, and we went with a mortgage for a mobile home with them. It was the first time we ever tried to do that. The application process was fine. It seemed like the sellers, however, had to prove a lot of stuff when all they were doing was selling their place. Whereas I've sold brick-and-mortar homes and you don’t do much more than show up for closing. It seemed this took longer than a brick-and-mortar home to work through all the processes.
That may have been the result of the person we were dealing with at 21st Mortgage not being as responsive as she might had been -- it took her days to get back to us. When she went on vacation for a week, during that time, we dealt with another person at 21st Mortgage and that person got back to us in a minute and acted within hours. We had no idea that was happening, and we were coming down to the end then, but, thankfully, somebody had been assigned to pick up while she was gone.
The lady could have been more responsive. They sent a list of things we had to provide for them, and we sent those, but it would take days until we realized that it was received and approved. As is normal, there were a couple of things that they wanted either resent or that we did not answer. So, we would have to go back then and send new information. It took too long. It took the seller’s realtor forever to be able to even get that rep to answer her own things because she was trying to determine exactly what it was she wanted from the seller. From the application to getting the money, it took about five weeks. We bought the manufactured home and we were happy about that. So, in that respect, we got what we wanted.

There was direct contact but the majority of contact was through emails. Everything was done electronically pretty much. The application and underwriting took about a month. I took a pause.

But once all of that was said and done, they were wanted to appraise the house because it was only worth $10,000. I had been told the entire process that I was getting $25,000 then was told there was quite a chance that I may only be getting 10,000. That happened right before the contract got sent. Everything else, like the background checks, was done. They said they needed this documentation and that documentation. But signing all the paperwork that was needed and emailing it was all done. We were then told that they had to have an appraiser come out and I had to spend $300-some on that appraiser.
When it came down to that we asked why this wasn’t told to us upfront and why were we waiting for the last-minute to be told this. Our loan officer's only reasoning was it was listed in the long list of documentation that was going to be needed and that that was what was going to be needed. But to me, I know for a fact it was listed second to last and that was the documentation. It was never brought up by her that it might be a good idea to get an appraisal first, especially because I couldn’t bring in my own appraisal company. I had to go directly through 21st Mortgage. Other than that, our loan officer was okay and I was confident working with her through the process.
It was all done online. They overnighted documents and stuff. I didn’t have to go in and meet with somebody in person because my schedule was really terrible and I had no time off. Everything could be done on the short 10-minute break that I had at work. I liked the ability to be able to contact my loan officer too.

I was highly pissed at that because (as a home buyer) I'm relying on 21st and my realtor to help me throughout the process and if I'm not understanding lingo it helps when two people who know what's going on (21st and my realtor) to be able to communicate so that I'm not relaying wrong info to the other party.
For the most part most people were nice but once it got down to the final parts....I was not happy with the customer service I received. Being stressed, being the middle person and dealing with no updates UNLESS I called was beyond unacceptable in my eyes. I felt there was a lack of compassion and hence why my frustration and consistent calling started towards the very end of the long process because I could not get answers. Hope things change so others do not feel this way.

21st Mortgage Corporation finance single wide trailers which I was told would be very hard to find. So, I went with them but getting a loan from them was a long process. It took months. August 15th was the official closing, but it only went into our name a couple weeks ago. There were uncompleted stuff. I don’t know what it was or who was at fault. I’m just happy it was resolved. They told us in the beginning it would take two months. For a regular house, it’s usually a month, so the two months certainly seems like a long time. But then, when it started taking more than two months, I threatened to either pay cash and not get a loan or go somewhere else. But when I put the pressure on the underwriter, he didn’t let me down. He went ahead and closed.
When you’re in a middle of a move, you’re making all these plans. You got moving trucks reserved, you got help reserved, you got everything going on, and you’re ending your job for a job transfer. So, if you can’t depend on a date and you’re gonna wait another two or three weeks, that’s a major thing to a buyer. I had two loan officers, so I don’t believe that slowed anything down. But I started with one guy and ended up with somebody else. Their customer service team was really good with answering my questions. They kept me informed and they responded quickly.

21st Mortgage was really horrible. They didn’t give me information that I desperately needed. When I first talked to the mortgage person, who’s very nice, I mentioned that I was closing on my house on such date and that we were planning on closing down here on this other date, and that I'd be traveling down there. They said okay but then there was no closing on that date. It ended up closing six weeks later than when I had mentioned. At no point in time did they tell me that the closing date wasn’t gonna work.
I ended up living in a hotel in St. George, Utah for two and a half weeks, paying out-of-pocket to have a truck with all my belongings in it sitting in the parking lot. I had to have two hotel rooms. I had three cats and a dog and I was homeless. I kept asking them for an update on a closing date, and they would never give me a date. They just kept saying that after they do something, then they would start moving. But after the thing was done, another thing has to happen and it would take two weeks. And it's like, “Could you have told me any of this before I chose the closing date on the house that I left?” It cost me an absolute fortune. I had to pay an extra month for a pad that had my belongings in it. I had to pay weeks of a hotel for two rooms for four people and all the animals. We had to have a moving truck for weeks longer than we planned on having it. The whole thing was a nightmare.
And trying to get any information off them was impossible. They wouldn’t tell me the next thing to do. I would have to call and leave a message because they don’t answer the phone, and they wouldn’t call me back. I would call and get somebody then I would ask to be transferred to the person I worked with, but then that person would reprimand me and say that I should have just left a message and he would call me, but he will never do it. It was a horrible experience.

We went through with the people that bought off my existing loan. I kinda let my wife deal with all the steps to get a mortgage through 21st while I was signing the paper. Everything went smoothly and really nicely. But it took a while to get all the paperwork because of how busy we were. It wasn't anything on 21st Mortgage.

21st Mortgage was responsive, helpful and straightforward. Their mortgage process was relatively easy. There was a checklist that we followed and whenever we submitted something it was checked off and emailed back to us. However, towards the end, there were a lot of tiny details that we needed, like wet signatures on this compared to digital signatures. We had to scramble at the last minute to get it done. It would be nice if they were a little more specific.
The application and underwriting process took us 25 days. Adam, the loan officer was very nice. We were impressed with his responsiveness. Whenever we needed to get in touch with him, he was relatively easy to get in contact with, either over the phone or through email and he got back to us within 24 hours. It was nice to have a person dealing with things instead of someone out of the country. I'm relatively happy with how everything went down. Working with 21st Mortgage has impacted my life greatly and helped me buy my first home.

I was going through a divorce and I needed a place of my own. My ex wife wanted me to rent an apartment while she kept the house but I didn't agree. So, I stumbled upon an alternative and that was a modular home. It's a double-wide type home, which is like a house. It’s on a slab and it’s got a driveway, a two-and-half garage, three bedrooms, two bath, and the whole bit. As far as my research went, there were not many lenders that lend for this type of house with a low rental. So, my realtor gave me a couple of options and I ended up doing an application online with 21st Mortgage.
The process was long and drawn out. I was also treated like I had bad credit. But I have excellent credit. The problem is, the interest rate is still high because I’m taking it as a high risk loan. It is so small that they have to give you a higher interest rate. But as someone who neither has his stuff together and take the pride in my credit score, I felt like I was still getting punished. And there should be guidelines to that. You could look at the history or look at my credit score before I get a 10 or 11% interest. So, I didn’t like that. But the fact that I’m in a house of my own again and I'm moving on, even though I have a mortgage now, makes it a lot easier.
Other than that, I liked the hospitality of the rep I dealt with, Jonathan. He was also nice and professional. He was lacking a little communication, but that was because apparently I was doing footwork for everybody. I had a deadline living with the ex, and I was doing all the running around and I was making things happen. It felt like it was all on me. Jonathan helped but things could’ve went a little smoother.
Still, 21st Mortgage helped me in the process of picking up the pieces and starting a new chapter in my life. My modular home was in remodel condition where I went in and had to paint things. I also made some updates. But to me, it’s a house. If I knew that this type of home was so cheap, I would’ve done this when I was younger instead of buying my first house. But buying a house is a lot easier. You can negotiate, haggle, and so on. With this, you really can’t. If you do, then you gotta go back to the lender and redo all the paperwork. Also, my loan process with 21st Mortgage took a month and a half to complete. It went quickly, but if it was a house it would’ve went quicker because of my credit score and the low interest. But that was me pushing it. I had to and I had no choice because I had a deadline to get out of the house of the ex.

I had 21st from the beginning and I did a refinance. Everyone I spoke with and emailed back and forth were very helpful, and they're great people. The process is very self-explanatory but sometimes the stuff can get a little confusing. When the lady who helped me first sent me the package, I wasn't really sure what to do so I called her. She sent me out a checklist of everything that I had to have to start the process and then it took about 3 of 4 weeks to get everything done.
At the end, they sent out the final paperwork to me and I had 24 hours to get everything done and mailed back to them. If not, they had to resend the docket back out to me. I don't know if that is the normal thing that all finance companies do or if it's something that 21st does. I had my ex-wife on the original loan and the reason why I had to refinance was to get her name off of it. If I need to ask her to sign the papers, then that would not be an easy task. So, that's something I would change for sure. Other than that, the whole process is very easy and convenient.

21st Mortgage was an option at the community where I was looking at a particular home in. But in the process of obtaining the mortgage, there was so much confusion with the sellers that I think they played a part in the lagging and the difficulty with the mortgage company as well. 21st Mortgage would have done a better job if it hadn't been for the community and their incompetence. Other than that, Judy and Janet were wonderful people to deal with. They tried their best and they were very patient with me when I lost my patience with everybody. Whenever there were concerns, I was able to call either of them, and they did well, to the best of their ability answering the questions that I had. And if they couldn't, they were good at finding them out.
I was very comfortable with my loan officer. She's down to earth and kind. It took me since May to get the whole thing closed and I didn't get it closed until October. She actually came to my house to finish the paperwork because the community had messed it up so bad. She went far out of her way to be as convenient as possible for me because of my work schedule. I'm out first thing in the morning and home late at night. I work 60 hours a week so I'm never home during office hours.
While the community had made this so incredibly difficult that I had a bad experience, it wasn't because of 21st Mortgage's problem. 21st Mortgage tried their hardest. It's not over yet and I still am waiting to get paperwork back. I don't know who's responsible for sending that to me and I don't even know the details.

So, we were expecting it to be done by Friday and I don’t think it was actually getting done until a Monday or Tuesday. But we ended up signing an early occupancy form, so we still got in here Friday. But they were very willing to work and accommodate our crazy circumstances because it’s me and my roommate on the loan, which is really interesting ‘cause we’re not married. We’re just friends. So, I'm sure for someone who had a more normal situation, it would be a much easier transition.

When I was able to reach the loan officer I was treated as if I was inconveniencing her. Once my loan did close the first payment was due 25 days after. It took longer for the loan to close then it did for my first payment. The due date fell 3 days prior to my pay date and I immediately started receiving calls and emails stating I was late when I was still within the grace period.
I emailed back saying I didn't realize it would be due 25 days from the close date and advised the payment would be made in 2 days still within the grace period. The person I was emailing insisted I take time from my busy life to call as it would be beneficial to me. When I called the agent simply began to argue with me stating there was no grace period and I was late and that is why I needed to call. I asked if I had been charged a late fee or been reported to credit the agent stated no but I was late and there is no grace period. The agent was solely arguing semantics in an attempt to lecture me. I have never lectured by a company quite like that nor have I ever had a company be so difficult to deal with.
