Rates

Mr. Cooper publishes sample rates for common loan types, including 15- and 30-year fixed-rate conventional loans and 30-year FHA loans. Rates are updated daily and vary based on borrower qualifications, loan type and market conditions.

Historically, Mr. Cooper’s average rates for home purchase loans have been slightly above the national average based on Home Mortgage Disclosure Act data. However, individual rates depend on credit score, down payment, loan size and other factors.

Mr. Cooper offers both fixed-rate and adjustable-rate mortgages. Fixed-rate loans provide consistent monthly payments over the life of the loan, while adjustable-rate mortgages typically start with a lower fixed rate for an initial period before adjusting periodically.

When comparing mortgage options, borrowers should look at both the interest rate and the annual percentage rate. The APR includes interest plus lender fees and gives a more complete picture of total borrowing costs.

Application process

Mr. Cooper does not have local branches, but it offers online tools and access to your loan agent online and by phone. You can apply online, and Mr. Cooper offers several other features to help in the homebuying, mortgage application and closing processes, like

  • Prequalification within minutes for most borrowers
  • Agent Assurance, which connects you with local real estate agents
  • The StreetSmarts house searching tool
  • The Mr. Cooper mobile app for accessing loan documents, making mortgage payments and accessing financial education materials
  • A digital loan tracker that lets you follow the process from application to closing
  • The Close On Time Guarantee, which covers your first month’s mortgage payment if Mr. Cooper misses your scheduled closing date
  • The Zero Dollar Move program, which pays for your move (up to 50 miles) if you buy a home with a Mr. Cooper loan

Mr. Cooper offers both home purchase loans and refinance loans, and they are available with fixed or adjustable rates.

However, the company also originates FHA purchase loans, FHA streamline refinance loans, VA purchase loans and VA IRRRLs (interest rate reduction refinance loans).

Mr. Cooper doesn’t offer USDA loans. If you’re interested in a USDA loan, check out our guide on USDA-approved lenders.

Refinancing

More than half of the mortgages originated by Mr. Cooper in 2021 and 2021 were rate-and-term refinance loans, with cash-out refinances being its second most popular option.

In 2020 and 2021, most originations were rate-and-term refinances, followed by cash-out refinances. This trend reflected broader market conditions, as many homeowners refinanced to secure lower rates or access home equity.

Requirements

Mr. Cooper does not publish specific requirements for borrowers, but several reps told us the lender follows loan requirements from Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac for conventional loans.

Conventional mortgages that conform to these standards typically require a credit score of at least 620, a down payment of at least 3% and a debt-to-income (DTI) ratio of 45% or lower. Nonconforming conventional loans, like jumbo loans, often have different requirements, though.

Government-backed loans, like FHA and VA loans, generally have less strict requirements than conventional loans. You can get approved for an FHA loan with a credit score as low as 500, but you need a score of 580 or higher to qualify for a 3.5% down payment. You can get a VA loan with no down payment.

If you’re unsure of whether you can afford a loan, Mr. Cooper does offer calculators to estimate how much house you can afford, potential mortgage payments, the cost of renting versus buying and how much you could save by refinancing.

National mortgage requirements by type

Cost and fees

Mr. Cooper does not publish a full fee schedule online. Costs vary depending on the loan type, borrower profile and property details.

Origination fees for conventional loans are often around $1,000 to $1,500, though actual costs can differ. Additional expenses may include appraisal fees, title services and closing costs.

After submitting a loan application, borrowers receive a loan estimate within three business days. This document outlines projected interest rates, monthly payments and total closing costs, allowing borrowers to compare offers across lenders.

FAQ

How does Mr. Cooper work?

Mr. Cooper works by starting with an online prequalification or phone consultation. After providing basic financial information, you may receive a preliminary estimate of how much you can borrow. For a stronger offer, borrowers can pursue a verified approval, which involves a more detailed review of income and assets. Once a home is selected, you complete a full application, lock your rate and move through underwriting to closing.

Is Mr. Cooper legit?

Yes, Mr. Cooper is legit. It is one of the largest mortgage servicers and originators in the country. It operates under Nationstar Mortgage LLC and serves millions of customers nationwide.

Where is Mr. Cooper available?

Mr. Cooper is licensed in all 50 states, Washington, D.C., and several U.S. territories, including Guam, Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands.

Does Mr. Cooper service its own loans?

Yes, Mr. Cooper is one of the largest mortgage servicers in the U.S. In many cases, it continues to service loans after closing, which means you make payments and manage your account directly through Mr. Cooper. However, like most lenders, it may also transfer servicing rights to or from another company after origination.

    My Wells Fargo home loan was taken over by this terrible company, and every month I was getting late notices, papers to fill out for help with help making a loan payment, and causing stress in my life, while ALL my payments were always on time every time, because I had my payments set to auto pay. The bills kept coming in, and they kept getting paid. After a few months as I was getting nearer to payoff, I started receiving checks from them for the same amount I was paying, and I couldn't figure out why. I kept calling, and they were saying I wasn't paying the amount, but I assured them I was and offered to show them proof which they refused to see. They were still returning the money. So after further investigation, I find out there was an amount on the back-end that was owed during the covid relief program Wells Fargo set me up on, and instead of paying the auto paid amounts to that, they were sending it back.

    They kept telling me the loan was paid off and that's why the checks were being returned, but they weren't sending me the paperwork that it was paid. I finally figured out what was going on. There was a back-end amount of 8,000 due from covid, which needed to be paid in full before the loan could be satisfied, but it was supposed to be paid off at once.... By the time I figured it out, I was over 60 days past due for amounts of money that were being received and returned. After finding that out I immediately paid the lump sum at once. After paying, I was afraid that if I didn't call someone higher up in the company that I would be reported to the credit bureau for delinquency. No matter how hard I tried and how many people I talked to, I could not make any headway, and I have now lost my stellar credit rating due to this incredibly disturbing oversight on their part.....

    I might also add that they transitioned with Rocket Mortgage during this time, so I was going back and forth between Mr. Cooper and Rocket with all this mess. To summarize, they can do you wrong and not care to fix it or take accountability for their own mistakes. Even if it means your credit suffers from it. I was considering refinancing the house through them but NO WAY I would ever voluntarily do that to myself moving forward. I am glad I am out from under them, and will make sure everyone who I come in contact with knows who they are dealing with. I'd prefer rate them with 0 stars.

    Mr. Cooper is the worst company I ever see in my life. They are nothing but scam and crook. I bought my house for three years ago hundred and $50,000 a small condo. I paid $50,000 down payment. My mortgage got sold to Mr. Cooper. My payment was $800 a month. Mr. Cooper later up to 1000. I was paying $1200 a month anyway more than I supposed to Mr. Cooper every day. I have a phone call from them for late payment. Three years later my balance is 127,000. I decide to refinance they own my credit. They have 100 point low on my credit report. They messed up my life just because I was honest and pay on time more when I supposed to do I call them. They never answer the phone. Always in AI voicemail. I don’t recommend anyone to have a mortgage with them. There’s nothing but bad news.

      This company is the absolute worst to do business with. They acquired my loan in 2018 from another servicer, and the amount of stress both emotionally and mentally given to me by them was immeasurable. First, they tried to increase my monthly payment despite a previous verbal agreement that they had to honor. Secondly, after telling me that there was nothing they could do to modify my payments and give me a little help, they sent me modification papers on more than several occasions and told me to ignore the applications each time.

      But that’s not even the worst of it. We have handled the taxes on our own to avoid unexpected payment increases. On 2 occasions, they set up escrow accounts for us without our knowledge or approval and applied our payments to the escrow account, putting us in default. After constant battling with them, they cancelled the escrow and updated our account to be current.

      On top of that, they sent us demand letters on more than 6 occasions despite making the monthly agreed upon payments on time and every month (2 within the past 4 months of this review). On each occasion, it was deemed that there were clerical and system errors and they rescinded the letters every time. After the last demand letter and being under the constant threat of foreclosure, I decided to venture out and see if I could get a loan to pay them off. I had enough. One lender asked for a written statement about the verbal agreement. After being told they wouldn’t accommodate me, it literally took a formal complaint to the BBB and my state’s division of banking and insurance to get them to write the letter.

      I found a lender who was more than willing to offer me a loan. After 8 years I am finally out from under Nationstar and I couldn’t be happier. I will never do business with them again, never speak highly of them and never refer anyone to them. The way they treated me was totally absurd. I did learn a lot of lessons though, and the most important one was never do business with them again ever.

      My name is Lisa **. I have had a loan with USAA and then Mr. Cooper bought the LOAN over and that is when my nightmare started. Issues regarding late payments and issues with Escrow payments -- I continually kept making payments and when I tried getting answers I never got anyone on the phone. When I called and got a hold of someone the call would disconnect. The hold is always long. Now, they sold my Loan to Rocket Mortgage and I am getting still default notices. However, I have also as of 2024 applied for Homestead Exempt and was approved but Mr. Cooper never adjusted the balances and the issue has been going over for nearly 3-4 years. There is no one to take charge of this matter. I have gone to my Harris County office to confirm that I am exempt from paying a big portion of my taxes due to my home being my primary home and age. I have no idea why this company is so irresponsible and not helping their clients.

      I feel overwhelmed and I am definitely NOT RECOMMENDING THIS COMPANY to anyone that needs a loan. They are a detestable and willing thieves. They offer no help regardless that they know this is a very frustrating situation. If only SOMEONE would take the time to call me and settle this matter. I am fully willing to cooperate as long as SOMEONE IS willing to help me out. I got all the documents to prove that I have paid what they have billed me for -- and at the end of the year I end up getting the reimbursements from the Entities that Mr. Cooper pays to-- When they should not be collecting these taxes from me.

      Please call me and communicate with me. The last straw is that Mr. Cooper has now sold or transferred my balance to a company by the name of Rocket Mortgage--- And they too are of no help. There is no option to chat or talk to anyone--- As the times I have called I have also been disconnected. Please call me to get this matter settled once and for all. I appreciate whoever reads this review and I hope that you help me out. Thank you.

      If I could give Mr. Cooper negative stars, I would. They have been my mortgage holder for several years. They bought my mortgage from my previous holder. My escrow account with my previous holder worked smoothly. For some reason, Mr. Cooper did not set-up an escrow account when they bought my mortgage and I was still charged the same payment. EVERY YEAR since I have had to re-set-up my escrow account with them. This was the first year everything was going smoothly with my escrow . . . or so I thought. Mr. Cooper never paid my flood insurance policy. When I called to tell them to please pay it, I was told that they pay all the flood insurance payments at once. Well, my flood insurance lapsed and wound up being cancelled. I had to get a new policy at a HIGHER RATE, all because of Mr. Cooper. Negative 5 stars.

      Trying to pay off our mortgage early so each month, I call in to make a "principal only" payment. Did so on Feb 3 with clear instructions that the amount was a principal payment. Yet, when the statement arrives, I see that the amount was not credited as instructed. Called and spoke with a rep who confirmed that the notes showed that the payment was for principal only but she is not sure why the system credited it towards the loan. How convenient!! Could it be that this 'mistake' was made because in paying off the loan early, the lender will not earn as much interest???

      We are living a nightmare with Mr Cooper/Rocket Mortgage. Rocket sent our escrow check in early December for our taxes and it returned unpaid by Rocket's third party to our taxing authority! In other words, the escrow check bounced! While trying to work this out with Rocket they sent another payment in early January, but took it out of our escrow account AGAIN, over $5100, twice! We now have an escrow account shortage and a monthly payment that they have raised almost $600 a month to make up for a shortage that is their fault! I have spent hours in their chat and on the phone over the past month with still no resolution. Getting ready to file a complaint with the Consumer Financial Protection Agency as I'm just done with them. Worst thing that could have happened when Mr. Cooper was bought out by Rocket!

      I DO NOT RECOMMEND FOR MORTGAGES. I would give Mr. Cooper 0 stars if I could. I have received some of the worst customer service I have ever experienced. I was hung up on by three customer service reps - live humans, not their horrible voice system. I was calling because my mother died and I need to pay her bills.

      The entire point of me calling them is to pay my dead mother's mortgage- I'm literally trying to give them money and this has been my experience! I can't believe the Mr. Cooper reps think it is ok to hang up on someone after their mother dies and they are calling you for help. It must be part of their customer service training because it happened 3 times to me on the phone. I also cannot get Laquante from Social Media to respond to me or Kalie **, Social Media Customer Advocacy Analyst, (**) I have asked both of the people listed above and many people on the phone for their written policies, or to speak with a manager, and by phone, email, and, social media I have been ignored and hung up on.

      I am selling my dead mother's condo which is why I had to contact them in the first place. So right now I am working a lot with Chicago and New York City real estate agents, brokers, real estate lawyers, an other financial institutions. When I have told several of these people the issues I've had with Mr. Cooper they have been appalled. As professionals in the industry, several people have told me they have never heard of this outrageous behavior from other mortgage companies. I will be telling all my friends, family, and coworkers about this and NOT Mr. Cooper's services in the future. Mark my words you will regret it. What a disgrace.

I opinion is they want you to miss payments so they can charge you for a late payment. When you try use customer service they will put you on hold over an hour just wanting you hang up.

      I went on a deployment overseas with the military during 2024-2025. Due to having a little extra money coming in I was able to pay more toward additional principal. Mr. Cooper repeatedly misapplied these funds. Out of 12 months, only 4 months were applied correctly. I tried adding the principal with my monthly payment on the 1st, tried paying on the 1st then waiting until the 5th or the 30th to make an additional principal payment. It did not matter what I tried! Their system used it to pay 2 months first then put the rest to principal. There is not even an option to pay 2 months on 1 transition. I put that money in the additional principal field, without fail every month their system misapplied my funds.

      I even have an agent with their company on live chat saying that is exactly what is happening. This is malicious and intentional. Obviously they don't want you to catch it so they make money off of you. I am tired of making an international call every single month from a deployment zone, you need to fix your system.

      Mr. Cooper is the worst company I have ever dealt with in my life. I have my property taxes paid by my escrow account and found out in October they sent the taxes to the wrong school district. The taxes are now almost $700.00 more than they would have been if they were paid in August as they have been for the past 7 years. Nobody can explain why the taxes were sent to the wrong school district and as of today, 12/22/2025, the taxes have still not been paid, despite call weekly since October. I would give them a zero rating if possible because every time I call, I get a different representative, and nobody can seem to rectify the issue by getting my taxes paid. My mortgage got purchased by this horrible company and now I am stuck with them. Worst company to deal with and would never wish them on anybody.

      Staff are either willfully withholding information or internal processes and training are severely lacking. I am owed over $4k for escrow surplus. Mr Cooper issued a statement in August reflecting this, but has never sent my check. I have contacted 3 times in 4 months. I am told my check has been reissued and to wait 30 days. Most recently, I was told that my last request to reissue the check was denied, but no one ever informed of this. I've also been told different things about my options. For example, I asked if I could receive a wire transfer or a check with tracking. Initially, they told me no the first 2 times. Finally, a rep told me yes on third request.

      When asked for instructions in writing on how to request the wire transfer, was told they're not available. I asked who am I supposed to send the request to? They said "research." How would anyone guess that? I now had to pay a fee to have my money sent to me via FedEx (despite it was their failed processes to actually issue it). I have zero confidence they will do the right thing / follow through on their last commitment, so I have resorted to filing a complaint and public reviews. I did not choose this company for my mortgage; my loan was sold to them. I would not recommend them to others.

      Dealing with Mr. Cooper is the worst. Their departments do not communicate with each other. I have been dealing with insurance escrow issues repeatedly for the last 8 months. I pay insurance a year in advance every year but mr. cooper will not acknowledge that we have insurance even though I and my insurance company have provided proof of insurance multiple times. Instead they keep purchasing insurance on my behalf and keep adding escrow charges to my account. I am so extremely frustrated. I have spent countless hours on the phone and sending email documentation without any resolution. In short I HATE Mr. cooper!!!!

      It’s so disheartening to read all the negative reviews but this company has certainly let so many homeowners down and they truly do Not care. It took me 8 months to complete a Loan modification with them (will never do this again). They repeatedly “lost all of my paperwork 6 times causing the whole process to take 8 months. This in turn drastically impacted my near to perfect credit score that was in the 800’s. I was lied to over and over again. I cannot understand how such incompetence and ignorance is allowed and tolerated by this mortgage company. I am so glad I have attorneys in my family to read each and every document. Never again.

      Mr. Cooper (now part of Rocket Mortgage) is great at taking your money, but good luck trying to get any of it back. I had an escrow account (to pay for home insurance and property taxes) with them and then decided to handle things on my own. When I requested the refund, it took them 8 weeks and 4 phone calls to finally have them mail the check.

      In addition, I'm an Eaton Fire survivor and when I received my insurance checks, I had to sign them over to Mr. Cooper. Based on the California mortgage contract, they are only entitled to the amount that is equal to the balance of my mortgage. They either don't understand contracts or they are just being shady, but so far, they have refused to refund me money that is rightfully mine. If you can avoid this company, I would highly highly highly recommend that you do so.

      The amortization schedule is ridiculous. Plot the interest paid and principal paid across the length of the loan with the dollars in the Y (up and down) and the year/month on the X axis (across the bottom). Mr. Cooper front loads the interest so high, you'll never pay anything off till the last few years of the loan.

      We understand how frustrating that can feel. Most mortgages use an amortization structure where interest is higher in the early years, which can make progress seem slow. If you’d like, we can review your specific schedule and discuss options like extra principal payments or refinancing to reduce interest over time.

      Absolutely the worst mortgage servicer that I’ve experienced. I paid my mortgage off and they have told me it takes 3-9 months to receive a lien release. What? How is that even legal? They simply do not care because they are not being regulated to stop the abuses. My state, Florida gives them 45 days and I can’t wait to see if they violate that statute. Mr Cooper deserves to be sued for a lot of money.

      Absolutely terrible loan servicer. As soon as our mortgage was sold to them, they failed to make the homeowner’s insurance payments despite taking ~$800/mo for insurance/taxes. They sent monthly statement showing a disbursement for insurance. It wasn’t paid to the insurance company and we didn’t receive a refund. They then started charging us additional money claiming that they were forced to acquire an insurance policy despite it being their fault that the insurance lapsed in the first place. We are currently in the process of hiring legal representation to sue this fraudulent company.

      Extremely Disappointed with Mr. Cooper. For over a year, our biweekly mortgage payments were misapplied, causing us to pay more interest than necessary and delaying the reduction of our loan balance. Despite multiple attempts to resolve the issue, Mr. Cooper has shown little accountability and provided poor, unprofessional communication. We honored our payment schedule and should not suffer the consequences of their administrative failure. The handling of this matter has been frustrating, disrespectful, and deeply disappointing.

      I have two major complaints with Mr. Cooper.

      1) They are cheating me on how they calculate interest. Example if I prepay principal ONLY on the 5th of the month It does not save me interest by paying early in the month. I pay the same if instead I made the payment on the 25th of the month. They calculate interest on a monthly basis, not daily. So in effect they get the use of my extra payment for free. Of course they do not tell you this, and I did not have a say when my loan was sold to them. Also, they should give us their interest calculation method, so we can make sure they are doing it correctly.

      2) Even though I have paid 1/2 of my loan off, they still want to charge me all the fees to re-finance. I feel they should allow me to re-set my loan with the current lower interest rate available without charging me so much. They already get me interest payments, how greedy do they have to be?
