Our loan officer Scott ** was very patient & professional. Without his attributes you would have been pulling our hair out. He was the calm during the storms. The finance officer Kari that worked to finalize our loan was also top tier. She had a flood insurance misstep near the end of the process but we don't think it was entirely her fault. It appears the flood coverage requirements change from time to time. We were still able to close only 3 days later than we planned. I would recommend these professionals to family and friends. We are grateful and thank them very much.

Poor Communication with Loan Officer and Processor... I still have not received my gift card I was promised for the horrible service I received (I keep asking for it and as usual still no response). I had a great experience with my purchase when you were Academy, so I decided to refinance with you (now Caliber) and my experience was the exact opposite. Also, I was promised money at the end of my loan and I had to pay $950 plus I was told I would get money back from Escrow from my previous bank and they said I am getting no money back. The Loan Officer and Processor needs to communicate and educate their customers. This loan process gave me anxiety and many sleepless nights.

One delay after another, you would have thought I am the only travel nurse in the world who ever tried to buy a house. No one understood my job, no one... Worst experience of my life and one loan processor Chrissy needs more training in customer service.

Caliber Home Loans is the worst lending company. Very unprofessional and not responding to phone calls and numerous emails. Even though my mortgage amount way below the 80% of the equity they are still taking the PMI for months. (Almost two years and additional $4000). Also they are not giving the refund for the check my city-county sent for the homestead credit to them. I'm aggressively started paying off my loan to get away from them. Please don't go these guys for any loans. They running an organized scam. Please share any of your issues related to PMI with Caliber Home Loans.

I cannot say enough about Josh and his team in making my re-fi so simple. The entire process was completed so much faster than I anticipated and they all made things so easy for my wife and I. The online application and document upload process was helpful and most of the documents I couldn't scan I was able to text a picture of and they handled it for me.
My wife was in early pregnancy and a trip to a title company brought anxiety because of her morning sickness and it was arranged to have the title company come to our house for closing. Josh and his team handled everything from beginning to end with such professionalism and left us with a sense of confidence and comfort in the process, keeping us updated at every step of the way. I couldn't have asked for a better company to handle my re-fi and they truly made me feel like family with the care they took in my re-fi. Thank you all so much for making what can be a stressful and time consuming process so easy, quick, and absolutely painless. I will definitely recommend Josh and his team to my friends.

As a licensed Realtor who used Caliber for my recent purchase, I would highly suggest you look elsewhere. Closing estimates were off by thousands, closed 2 weeks after a clear to close was given and our HUD changed 4 times before settlement all while reducing my lender credit. At the end of the day I spent 8 thousand more than what was estimated at the beginning of the loan process and 4 thousand more than what my approved HUD noted 2 weeks before we actually closed. I will never use them again or refer another client for their mortgage services. And after all of the disasters it caused for our family, all I get from Caliber is, "We don't do a lot of these types of renovation loans. Sorry."

This was an incredibly and unnecessarily frustrating experience. I sent several emails over the months before closing doing everything I could to make sure everything was being done so there would be as few problems as possible during closing week and on closing day. At the very end Caliber wanted, among other things, the most recent copy of my MONTHLY account statement from the account my closing funds were coming from. That statement wasn't due to post until about 3 days before closing. They had already received numerous statements before. Since this statement wasn't due to post until 3 days before closing, I happily offered, wanted, and practically begged to provide a "real time" print off of what was in the account. That wasn't good enough for them. My credit was (is) stellar with a score of 793 and I was way more than qualified for the loan. Their lack of cooperation and "common sense" was mind blowing.
They completely dropped the ball with my "flood inspection". They received the form in the middle of Sept yet didn't get it to me until one month later, which was about 4 or 5 days before closing. It really is too much to go into; there are numerous things. But let it suffice to say that Caliber seriously jeopardized my closing. I didn't receive my final loan disclosure until THE NIGHT BEFORE CLOSING. I didn't receive my HUD until 30 MINUTES AFTER THE SCHEDULED CLOSE TIME ON THE DAY OF CLOSING (the following day) because of their stubbornness and being so difficult to deal with in the final few days.
So closing was postponed for an hour from the original time, giving me essentially 30 minutes to look over and digest my HUD. I kept a few of my friends who are experienced in closing transactions abreast of all the shenanigans the couple of weeks before closing. They were stunned and used words like "inexcusable" and "unprofessional". I completely agree. I will not be recommending Caliber Loans to anyone I know.

Everything was good in the beginning. Everyone was communicating. It was easy to get a hold of everyone and get our questions answered. We were told from the beginning that closing on October 1st would make our first payment in December. We kept with this plan for over a month. Our apartment lease wasn't up until the middle of November. So with a mortgage due in December we wouldn't be overlapping in payments. When we signed all of the paperwork with Theresa she told us that if we close on the 1st of October, our first payment wouldn't be until December.
On the closing date the paperwork did not match what we were told. We called Theresa before going on with the paperwork. She said go ahead with the paperwork and for my wife to give her a call the following week and she will fix it. My wife has called Theresa twice, left voice mails both times, and has sent 2 emails, all in the past 2 weeks, but she still hasn't gotten back to my wife. I am just disappointed how people put on this show in the beginning. They are so helpful and eager to get you in a house. But as soon as the paperwork is signed and they have their money, it's as if they never knew you.

We had a positive experience working with John **, our lender. He was licensed in both Washington and Michigan. Since we were buying a home in Michigan, but currently resided in Washington, this was a benefit. John was very thorough and for the most part was careful to make sure no part of the process was ever waiting on him. He was proactive in ensuring we were prepared with what the underwriter would require. He was responsive when it came to text messages, emails, and phone calls, even responding after business hours and on the weekends. A few times he was overly cautious and concerned about potential future issues that our realtor told us were unlikely to occur, which resulted in some added anxiety over things we did not need to worry about. However, it is better to be over-prepared than under-prepared.

Last year I decided to refi my house. I had gone through a broker, who set me up with another mortgage company. It was a huge hassle. There was an excessive amount of paperwork involved. Then when I got the appraisal, he listed an absurd amount of work that had to be done in order to get the refi - things from removing the door from the guest bedroom to the utility room (not going to happen), and replacing the door from the utility room to the backyard. (Valid, but he said it would cost $30. The door itself was $200, and it cost $200 more to have it installed. The guy didn't know what he was talking about.)
I spent the next year getting that work done and renovating the inside myself. When it was all done, I decided to stay with Caliber and do my refi. I should have done that in the first place. It was so much easier just to stay with the company who already has my loan. They know my payment history. They were professional and kind and fast. Anytime I had a question, it was immediately answered, even after hours. I'm glad I stuck with Caliber. I will recommend them to anyone who is thinking about buying or refinancing a house.

We recently refinanced our home loan through Caliber. Our loan had been with Caliber for approx 1 yr and we were contacted by Keith ** about our options for refinance with Caliber to lessen our loan length. We went through the process and Keith was great, however, we are still currently waiting to hear something about a possible escrow overage since we have closed on the refinance. We had received a check in the mail in late August just a couple of weeks before closing explaining an escrow overage on our original home loan. When we asked if this check was valid, we were told no and to not cash this check. It was for $1200.00+.
When it came to closing on the refinance, we had to bring at least an extra $700 that we weren't prepared for and we were told that it had to do something with our insurance being due right before we closed. Then at closing, the title company also was slightly confused about our escrow account and was also concerned that indeed there had been a mistake in regards to our previous loan escrow account and setting up the new loan escrow account.

Our loan was on a 30-day schedule at the seller's request. Although there were several hiccups in the compressed time frame all was in line. The closing was scheduled for 10-9 and on 10-8 a "random QC audit" that would take at least 1.5 days was done. We are out of town buyers and had made the trip specifically to close and take possession. The timing also put it on a bank holiday weekend. We had to miss two additional days of work to close on 10-13. The company should have rules about how near to closing to pull loans randomly for an audit.

The Loan Officer Greg ** was the only reason I stayed through the painful process. The company in my opinion has been less than truthful and extremely difficult. What should have been a quick and painless process was continually dragged out. I will forever remember the pain and discomfort. If you are looking for a refinance or purchase, do not use Caliber. I will continue to tell others to not use Caliber for financing if at all possible.
You would think that if your loan is with the company that the refinance is processing with, it would be quicker and easier than with other lenders. The Title company chosen by Caliber was less than pleasant to deal with. The law allows the borrower to chose the title company and this should have been availed to me but was not until the last moment, at which time I was told it would cost me money and delay the loan. I could go on for many pages what I disliked about Caliber and its process, but it is not worth my time. If anyone would like to call me, I would be glad to expound. All in all aside from Greg ** the Loan Officer, I feel like I am defiled and have been raped, with the general feeling of dirty disgust.

Loan officer very nice. Hard to get a hold of. Said I would receive things at a certain time but, I never got them when they said I would, it was always at a later date. Underwiting process was terrible. Submitted same docs more than once. Was told everything was ok and then told "oh sorry I need something else." Closing process was a complete cluster. No one knew what was going on. Closing process added unnecessary stress to my family vacation. Nice people, when you were able to get a hold of them, but really, really terrible experience. Had to request my hard copies of my closing docs several time before getting them sent to me. Constantly promising but not delivering in a timely manner. I was told that I could put payments into escrow and then at the last min. was told "sorry we can't do that because someone screwed up." So even though we can't move into the house until renovations are done, you will still need to make the payments.
Sorry! So much bad happened during the process I can't list it all. Title company, wow we won't even begin to talk about that horrible place. If I ever do a 203k loan again I will most likely use another company that actually knows what they are doing. It was very clear that the loan officer may have known 203k's but everyone else work with her was beyond CLUELESS! Very disappointing.
This was by far the worst home buying experiences ever. Now that it is all over I was promised some things to compensate for my terrible experience, but I will believe it when I see it. I asked to get the promises in writing and have yet to receive anything. Surprise, surprise. I would NOT recommend Caliber for 203k loans. I hope they are better with regular home loans, because if the experience I had is how they do business then I have no clue how they are still in business.

Caliber Home Loans has, on two separate occasions, defrauded me out of PMI payments. First, when they acquired my loan from the issuing bank, they claimed that they didn't receive one month's worth of payments when the funds were transferred. This may have been the case, but it's not my fault. I have records showing that I paid 12 months of payments in 12 months. If they had an issue, it was their mistake and they should take it up with the bank they acquired the loan from... Instead, they just stole an extra month's payment out of my account. The refuse to deal with anyone in any format other than printed letters via US mail... So every communication requires weeks and there is no way to reach anyone other than the front-line customer service (who are powerless). Basically, they stonewalled me with their 'policies'.
Secondly, I inquired about getting my PMI removed via a written letter (as I was told I needed to do by customer service). So I sent a letter, they waited 30 days and then sent a letter back with another form I needed to fill out and return. I did that. They say they received my cover letter but not the form, which is absurd. They intentionally threw the letter away and now they refuse to send a replacement form by any means other than US mail... And that letter will "take 30 days to go out". Long story short, what should have been a 2 week process has been going on for over three months.
All told, this accounts to approximately $600 in unnecessary fees that I've paid and all Caliber had to do was refuse to talk to me by any means other than US mail... And then they 'lost' my letters when I sent them. This is criminal. I'm considering legal action against the company... I'm betting that a little digging will reveal grounds for a class-action suit.

Communication was lacking greatly from the team during our loan process. Communication was made to be a big deal at the start of the process. An email detailing how important communication from us was sent out, however, we were not communicated with to the same degree that was expected from us. We assumed since Caliber were the professionals in loans, that they would ensure to explain the details to us when making decisions on one of the biggest loans of our lives. We felt as if we constantly needed to clarify what was needed from us when emails were sent over. Often, we wasted time sending the wrong things, or not sending complete requests because the instructions were not clear. Again, Caliber were the professionals in this process, yet we felt we were expected to just "know" what they wanted & what was expected.
When it came time to lock in our rate for our loan, it was our realtor whom was prompting us to be in contact with our representative, not our representative prompting us in the process. Most days, we had to call our representative for updates. We didn't understand why we were not automatically updated on a daily basis with the most up to date information & recommendations. At the time of closing on our home, we were 1.5 hours from closing and still having requests for paperwork to be sent over. We only received final calculations for amounts needed for closing approximately one hour before closing. Finally, we felt our experience was more stressful than helpful during the closing of our loan. We would not recommend Caliber in the future.

I recently had the pleasure of working with Gina ** and her team at Caliber Home Loans in the purchase of my new home. To simply label this "a pleasant experience" would not give proper credit to all the hard work invested in this transaction. It's no secret that the Atlanta housing market is hot right now. Demand greatly exceeds supply, especially at the price point where I was looking. This has created a strong sellers' market; many listings that interested me were under contract within days (even hours) of a "For Sale" sign being planted in the yard.
So when I spotted the perfect home hit the market, I knew I had to act fast to secure it. I wanted to present a very enticing offer to the seller, to include a fair purchase price and a quick closing date (I felt the latter would prove particularly compelling to the seller, as the home was vacant). As my agent and I discussed the terms of my offer, we placed a call to Gina to discuss how soon we could offer to close. I expected to hear "maybe a month" or "better give us 6 weeks to be safe" or some similar safe response. (This is the typical response heard from busy mortgage bankers these days, it seems). Gina proposed that we schedule the closing for three weeks out. 3 weeks...
Come to find out, the seller had received multiple offers on her property. At least one contained a higher offer price than mine. But thanks to the inclusion of a quick closing date, she accepted my offer. After the contract was signed, the Caliber team went to work. Communication was clear, understandable and as frequent as necessary. Answers to my questions were a phone call away. Requests for documentation were reasonable and easily accommodated. We closed in 20 days, on a Friday afternoon. Even the seller and her agent commented on how quickly Caliber had completed my transaction.
I believe that without Gina and her team's commitment to a fast closing and subsequent smooth execution, I would have had to settle for my second (or third) choice, not a very satisfying proposition for such an important purchase. I should also note that I am extremely pleased with the rate! I would and will confidently recommend Gina and Caliber Home Loans to anyone in need of real estate financing.

While I want to start by saying that it worked out in the end, our experience was poor overall. We were pre-approved for a mortgage but when it came time to proceed, we ran into problems with closing because of student loans our broker first claimed that they didn't notice. Then, our broker claimed the rules that were causing the challenges were new, but that did not seem to be the case upon further research and discussion with my family's broker. Regardless, we went through a number of iterations that first involved extended family, who could have paid for the whole house in cash, attempting to cosign the loan. They too were still not approved because of student loans. There was an attempt to take my husband off of the loan completely since he was not contributing at the time.
All of this caused move in delays, added economic burden, and emotional strain. We are glad that we were ultimately able to close but only with a large mortgage insurance. While we appreciate all the broker did to make it possible to ultimately close, this problem should have been caught much sooner in the process to, at minimum, avoid the delay. Furthermore, we find it hard to believe that even with 25% down (and we offered to put more down), we should have to pay mortgage insurance for the life of a 30-year loan without any other options.

Doing business with Caliber was the most stressful and difficult situation I've ever been through. Worked with their "team" when buying my house. And none of their "team" worked together. I was constantly having to answer the same questions over and over and do the same paperwork over and over because they didn't share information. Then every time I had questions they would have me going in circles for days and then as soon as they gave me an answered it would change a day or 2 later.
My closing was pushed back several times due to them not being done on their end of things. Luckily the seller was nice enough and understanding to agree to push back closing. I never knew a set closing cost because it changed daily. Finally the day before closing I was told how much to bring to closing and who the cashier’s check was to be made out to. The day of closing, on the way to their office they called to tell me the check needs to be made out to a different name and for a larger amount. This making me late to my closing. Then to top it off, no one from Caliber even came to my closing! Then received an email saying they were sending a closing gift in the mail. I should have known that'd never show up. Just one final lie I guess.

I would highly recommend Caliber Home Loans! This being my first time applying for a home loan, I wasn't sure what to expect. Caliber made my experience exceptional from beginning to end. They took the time to answer every single question I had, regardless of the amount. From the online application to the closing (which by the way was on time), Caliber Home Loans exceeded my expectations. Oh, and did I mention my monthly payment is LESS than what was originally quoted!

Stephen ** was awesome! Very helpful, friendly and organized. The person who assisted him, though, Eva **, seemed to lose documents I'd already provided, and seemed very disorganized. I provided numerous items multiple times for her. Overall, I was very happy with my experience, and think Stephen is an awesome asset to your company. I will definitely use him again in the future if I do more real estate deals.

Working with Ron ** is always a pleasure. He made the experience good. I have to say the process did seem more difficult than I remember with past closings. We were pretty rushed towards the end, but I don't blame all of that on Caliber loans. The appraiser seemed to be the main source of the problem. After closing I had to wait over an hour for the funds to arrive at the title company before I could leave. I've never experienced that before.

As first time home buyers, we really had no idea what to expect when working both with a lender and a realtor. We had been told by others who had purchased homes what to look for, what to expect, and how we should be treated. Our realtor, who became our realtor by accident and not by choice, was horrible and he is the one that told us about Caliber because his good friend works as the branch manager. We have been very unhappy with our entire experience with the Caliber office in Chandler, AZ. Our mortgage officer (who again was also the branch manager) did not show up for the closing nor did our realtor. When our friends and family and even strangers heard that, they were all mortified and said we should not have went through that process alone and it was both our loan officer and realtor's responsibility to be there.
Even the underwriting department put us through unnecessary stress by telling us everything was good to go and then 2 hrs later telling us that we had only minutes to turn documents in. Who does that? We also had several ongoing issues with everyone at Caliber understanding my husband's profit sharing through his employer. We told Caliber employees numerous times how it all worked and what we were able to provide as far as documentation was concerned. We had the same conversation with the Caliber office so many times that we lost count. It was ridiculous and so frustrating that we came to a point where we were not going to purchase our home. We also had a very negative experience when it came time for the appraisal.
We paid for it immediately (even though we were never told that it was going to be almost $500) and it took several days for it to be completed and several more days before we were given the report. There was no explanation as to why it took so long and there was no apology either. We were told by our loan officer that we would close on our home by the 28 of July. In fact we were told several times that we could even close earlier than that. If we did not close by the 28th, then we would owe the seller money everyday that we were late. Of course we did not close by the 28th and ended up owing the seller over $100. We called our loan officer and told him we were not paying that money because it was not our fault that the closing did not take place. He said he took care of it by changing things around in the closing paperwork.
We are wondering if it was rolled into the cost of our home? I never saw in our closing paperwork where that amount was actually taken care of by Caliber. Of course if our loan officer had been at the closing, we would have been able to ask and have some kind of understanding of how it was handled. Fast forward a few months after moving into our home and we received a bill for property taxes. Of course we were alarmed as it was a large amount of money due in a short time. I texted our loan officer asking if we owed that money and he said we did because our mortgage did not cover property taxes. But then we were told that it did when we met with him to go through the initial paperwork. I told him I did not understand how everything worked and we wanted to know what exactly was covered with our mortgage.
His answer was to Google a first time home buyer's class and take that (Yes I have proof of this). So you have an experience that was basically a D- on the grading scale and then need help again later on down the road only to find that we have been long forgotten and mean absolutely nothing as a customer. If we had to do it over again, we would not have chosen the Caliber mortgage office in Chandler, AZ. I am hoping and praying that the corporate offices are much better to work with. On a positive note, we pay our mortgage online and that has been a great experience. The online format for our mortgage account is excellent. It sort of makes us wish we could have just done the entire process online.

Yesterday afternoon I called the number on my loan statement to ask a question. After waiting 20 minutes on hold, I spoke with a representative who told me that I needed to speak with someone in the property tax department. He gave me the number and then transferred me. After holding for 15 minutes I thought I had been connected to the wrong number so I hung up and called the number given to me. I waited on hold for another 45 minutes and finally gave up. I have a new home loan and this was my first direct interaction with Caliber Loans. I hope this is not your typical customer service.
