Our experience with NewDayUSA has been fabulous. Our loan officer Destinee ** was on another level above excellent. She made herself available 24/7. We real feel like we have made a friend. She knew what this home meant to us and went above and beyond to help us get it.
Destinee is one of the best team members we have here at New Day USA and we are beyond happy that she was able to help you in your home purchase. Congratulations on your new home.

It was a great experience with professionals. They walked me thru all the steps and even my wife who was out of state. She had went to Ohio to visit her family and caught the coronavirus. Everything turned out fine and I would tell everyone to try your services.

Very pleased with New Day. Staff were very helpful. It started with a simple phone call to New Day. Especially Abigale **. Abigale returned my phone call and got things started for a Loan quickly. Her Boss Andrew was extremely helpful at one point.
A phone call can be the start of something great and we are overjoyed to hear that after that phone call, Abigail and Andrew helped guide you through your home loan process.

Was really disappointed in the service. The constant delays and the lack of communication. Started off with an agent, halfway through was assigned to another agent. Constant delays, not by me. Requested documents were immediately send. I was held up by the "Title Company" without explanation. After constantly hounding them as to reason for the delay. It was learned, delay was over a shared driveway..That took 2 seconds to resolve, but had me waiting nearly 2 weeks after I was notified of my approval.
I was really disappointed in the service. I kept hearing about the "Admiral", and his commitment to the veteran. At the end of the day, the "Admiral" charged me and made a considerable profit off of my refi. I believe NewDay, should compensate me for the unnecessary, "running" around I had to do. It seemed they were more interested in "their" bottom line, than helping a veteran.
We’re sorry to hear you feel that way. We want to address your concerns. Someone from our team will contact you to discuss in more details. Thank you.

Loan payoff is awkward and inaccurate. Credit card accounts were not correct amounts and lagging behind correct totals. Mailing checks rather than electric transfer is time wasted and antiquated. Better system would be to electronically transfer agreed totals to borrowers and have them epay bills.

2. Least required communication of the process.
3. Unknown changes. That I seemed liable for.
4. Funding information received contradiction in disbursement time period meaning another unaccounted for pay period go before receipt of funds.
5. Pretty sure your company doesn't have Chevron Authority in Law.

I had been receiving mortgage literature (requested by me) from NewDay USA for nearly three years now, when I decided to finally commit and make the change: debt consolidation from a previous marriage a primary consideration here. Ultimately, I selected NewDay USA based on [the] positive experiences of three other veterans (and families) I know and trust.
My first contact. I was truly blessed in late June when I called NewDay USA and spoke with [Ted] **: Assistant Vice President - Loan Organization. Indeed, talking with [Ted] for the first 15-minutes alerted me to the awareness of the feeling that I would be [safe] and [protected] with this man in what I was about to do, with this representative of NewDay USA... It’s all about TRUST with us veterans: for myself, personally, having been spared my life at age 23: surviving [Tet] in I Corps: with the 26th Marines at Khe Sanh, Con Thien and Hill 881N on Easter Sunday, 1968, I simply cannot make any decision absent the feelings of being [safe] and sensing [trust]. [Ted] ** provided me with those feelings of trust and security (obviously, because of the man he is, and, the company he represents. . . NewDay USA.)
From DAY ONE, [Ted] talked to me daily on the phone; followed up those calls with Text messages and Emailes with the ‘attached’ appropriate documents: I was never once unaware, ‘in the dark,’ or surprised about any document sent to me for an Esignature... [Ted] communicated with me (Text, Email or phone) EVERY DAY from the moment of our initial conversation. And with every communication, more TRUST.
The Appraisal, insect inspection and water test went smoothly as coordinated by [Ted] with me and the selected professionals. All inspections and tests successfully completed within one week. Closing was effortless: [Ted] arraigned for me to meet with an established NOTARY in my area; they contacted me and a meeting at the local library was scheduled. Everything went smoothly and as planned.
The mortgage was finalized a few days later without a single problem....with NewDay USA, one has THREE DAYS to then decide to follow through with or, or refuse the mortgage. Funny thing is, as the borrower, I ALWAYS felt in complete control of all business... again, safe and secure in the trust of [Ted] ** and NewDay USA. Arguably, but really not, [Ted] ** and NewDay USA, THE best mortgage company I’ve ever dealt with... having acquired several home mortgages over the years, I can speak with an authority and a myriad of experience.
Thank you for sharing your outstanding feedback with us! It is one our greatest joys to be able to help veterans and we understand how valued an open and honest process is. Ted is not only a great person but an asset to our company as well. We are always dedicated to creating a positive experience and we stand ready to assist every step of the way. Thank you again for trusting us with your refinance!

First, Dylan did a great job helping us! This is not the first loan we have completed since my husband became self-employed. The underwriting requirements from NewDay were far above anything else we were required to complete with other lenders. The extra requirements cause our first rate lock to expire and lots of my valuable time trying to locate a new CPA to provide the requested documents. The requested documents are not a VA requirement. Other than this issue, we are pleased and very thankful for the hand-up!

I want to express the “excellent” customer service that I received in my journey to purchase my home. My journey with NewDay USA started back in October 2021. I was in the process of a divorce and selling our marital home. There were a lot of things pending to enable me to purchase my new home. NewDay worked with me to get all of the required information and documents in place. They kept in touch with me just to check in on how I was doing and showed me so much kindness. They went ‘over and beyond’ their normal day to day duties.
Fast forward to February of this year after my marital home was sold and the divorce was finalized, NewDay did an excellent job in getting everything in order to meet my 10 May closing date! I am so impressed and grateful for all of the caring support that I received from NewDay and will definitely refer the company to all my family and friends. In closing, I was approached by several other financial institutions for my home purchase, but I chose to stay with NewDay because of the competent and compassionate customer service that I received in the beginning of my home purchase journey!

Everything went very smooth, the exception of the appraisal, the company that you used I feel did not get a true picture of the current market, both of the homes used for comparison had sold more than six months ago and were not a true picture of the current market. This caused our loan to be lower than anticipated so that we did not get as much out of the home to allow us to do what we were planning.
Also at the beginning of April our rep sent an email that we might get to close around the 12th. On the 22nd he requested that I get the Insurance checklist as the insurance company would not release it to you. On the 25th I faxed you the copy, on the 26th he requested a pay-off from the current loan company. I was able to provide it later that night and was told that we should be able to close on the 28th. That’s over 16 days from the estimated closing date, and I had to do the final legwork to make it happen on the 28th. If you want additional info I’d be glad to talk with someone other than my representative. Cell number **.
We value our customers' feedback and thank you for taking the time to share yours. Your feedback will help us evaluate our process. We strive to meet the projected closing date but also acknowledge that a number of circumstances could result in a delay. We regret that your closing was impacted and delayed.

I was disappointed that I didn't get the 3.65 interest rate. When we started this back in December I was under the impression I was going to be locked into that rate but as time went on I noticed on a new set of paperwork that it had not been locked in and the rate was now 4.25. I was told his system wouldn't allow him to lock the 3.65 in but we locked in the 4.25. Like I said I started this in December because I couldn't close until March because of previous refi. I figured interest rates were going to sky rocket so that is why I wanted to get a jump on this. 4.25 isn't horrible but I still believe I should have been allowed the 3.65.

We finally closed on 11/9 after an original closing date of 10/2. It stated in the contract that New Day would pay property taxes out of closing. They sent the funds to our county tax office a week later on 11/16 then they turned around and canceled the check on 11/22. When they got the funds back, there was a charge of $427 from our old mortgage company that they reappropriated from our tax money. They did not notify us of any of this and still have not provided documentation to back up this claim. Two months later on 2/18 they refunded the balance of our tax money.
March 10 a delinquent tax notice was sent to us with late charges and interest. I verified that this was correct with the court house and called New Day immediately to find out what happened. They have taken no responsibility for this, will not answer questions and they kept saying they would send out payment, but the charge would be added to our payment broken up over a year. For the full amount. Six weeks later and another round of penalties were added to the bill and no payment. I went ahead and paid it late fees and all. After multiple calls and conversations with New Day which resulted in no answers or any sort of resolution.

This was a long process because of interference from other family members. Fortunately, through the expertise and patience of Mr. Michael **, we were finally able to procure the loan and solve a significant family problem. There were complications because of confusion due to wording and specifications in the original mortgage papers. The prior institution would not allow escrow considerations; this contributed greatly to our need for a refinancing solution.

My experience with the NewDay USA team was smoothly coordinated, clearly articulated, and effectively managed by a dedicated team who thoroughly embody the term "professional". I have not experienced such thorough project management and helpful service in a long time. Initially I thought the level of service would diminish over time, as setting the bar so high requires exceptional energy. Instead I was glad to be wrong in witnessing Ashley, Kathleen and Debbie lean very far forward to pull everything together speedily.
In spite of their ferocious work ethic, I never felt rushed and always felt encouraged to ask questions. Throughout each step I was kept informed, and wherever possible I was given choices. I can't imagine how this purchase could have happened without them. At the very least I would have spent considerably more time and money in securing the survey and inspection resources and in coordinating between each requirement. I strongly recommend Veterans rely on NewDay USA for managing this tricky process. This experience has been extraordinarily positive for myself and my family.

First of all, to begin I would like to commend Alexis ** for her professionalism, communication skills and help in getting through this extremely tedious process. She is a true professional and I would highly recommend her. My negative review has to do with this overall process which is labor some, repetitive and in many cases, redundant. It took me three months to get through this process and I experienced a rate increase while working on getting information together. The appraisal process in Alabama was also a delay for at least 5 to 6 weeks. What was really frustrating is providing the same information and documents over and over and over. It was very frustrating. In many cases information was easily verified without having to go through the same steps again.
The only reason I went to NewDay is because I am a veteran. At one point I almost canceled the process and decided to pay a higher rate with my bank. Had it not been for Alexis I would have done so. Even at my closing, there were two documents that Madeline and I had to sign giving NewDay permission to obtain information that was already included in the closing documents! Let me make myself clear, the information was already obtained and in the package. I envision a group of accountants/underwriters sitting in a room with green shades pouring over documents to justify something that has already been acquired. If you see the value of my home and the amount of the loan against the value, coupled with my credit ratings and assets, this loan would be a no brainer for any company. I have to say, overall, this process really needs to be overhauled, streamlined and improved for your customers. Best regards, Greg

The process started out on 11/15/21 with a phone call from our Account Executive. He stated “the Admiral wants you to know that there will be no out-of-pocket expenses” and told us the documents he needed. I stated that the reason we didn’t complete doing business with New Day before was the representative before went on vacation and the process stalled as no one else there could continue the process; he stated he was sorry for that and someone on his team would always be available to keep the loan moving. Within the first week we were told that WE needed to pay for a “termite inspection” and a water test. When I questioned it I was told if we didn’t pay, it would delay the closing by weeks!
One of the documents we provided was a mortgage payment history. It showed the previous years payments WERE MADE ON TIME, but several payments were reversed AFTER RECEIVING by the mortgage company and re entered IN HOUSE OF THE MORTGAGE COMPANY because of THEIR bookkeeping reasons. It was put upon us to find out why they did this AFTER RECEIVING THE PAYMENTS ON TIME! What companies do with funds paid to them after they receive them is NOT NewDays business; much less putting the responsibility on the client to find out information NOT GERMANE to the closing!
The Account Executive went on vacation from 12/16/21- 1/3/22 (which was the intended closing date) and the contacts he gave never responded to my calls or emails during that period! After finally given the reason for the payment history, we were then questioned about a bankruptcy that we disclosed from 14 YEARS PRIOR! Seven years is the norm and ten is extreme, but 14 YEARS?
Next, we needed to come up with a “Driveway Maintenance Agreement. We’ve been in this property for 20 years and always paid for it. The neighboring properties have changed hands twice and we’ve never had a problem, but the “Rub” is: the Account Executive knew back in November that we shared a driveway and never mentioned this document would be needed and wanted to see if the underwriter would require it! He scheduled the closing again and said it would take place on a Friday, then moved it to Saturday, then Monday, then Tuesday. There is a lot more I could go into but the pattern is clear: the process started with a lie, had more deception as we went, requested information and delayed the process unreasonably, and put us through undue pressure and stress!
We started the process positively, I became more and more negative as the situation progressed; and am now feeling so violated and bitter that I have completely lost any faith in NewDay USA to the point that I will warn every veteran I know to stay as far away from them as possible as it causes more stress than PTSD! Though mine wasn’t service related, this process awakened every I’ll feeling and bad thought and nightmare I’ve ever had to the point of wanting to inflict physical violence on the perpetrators!! I pray nobody else has to go through anything like we endured from a company that claims to be an advocate for veterans!!! And yes; I’ve kept the emails, texts, and phone records and will only share them with other veterans who are contemplating this horrible company!!!!!

I am a repeat customer. The first time I did a streamline loan a couple years ago with Curtis that was a great experience. This one however was not so great. The loan servicer was nice enough, polite, professional and courteous, but seemed like this was his first time doing a loan. There were items that were not correct on preliminary documents that I was told to just sign, I called out as being wrong, I objected to the practice of signing an incorrect document. Still I was made sign and the issues were never fully corrected even through closing. Math was right but verbiage was wrong.
I work for the USDA and deal with loans, grants and the same sort of work every single day but on a much larger scale. When it comes to financial documents it is imperative to have things correct. It further makes your clients feel good if the staff is doing everything they can to get it right and if it's not they will make it right. Although I think my loan tech Alex, did try to make me aware of everything in the coming steps, there were a handful of items that did not come up during those conversation. Later I would receive a call or an email with a message for me to call back. When I did there was frequently a comment like "we are almost ready to set up closing except for____" or "the underwriter wants to verify your employment again, yeah even though they did it at the beginning they want it again" or "you have not worked long enough at your current job, so that isn't viable to use, so we need your work number where you used to work."
I understand about the length of employment deal. It just seemed like they were reactive or reading it as they went rather than knowing their craft. There were a couple of things I had to do myself because they gave me bad information...Culligan water is not a certified lab so they can't test water of E.coli or coliform as they told me and it's not free. Know your craft and what you are talking about...your credibility is at stake when you give your customer bad information!
It took a little longer than what I was told, and would have been longer if I had not pushed my former HR dept to quickly process my employment verification. It was going to be a -3 week wait for the Air Force to process their request... until I asked about it. Once the AF people talked with me it was expedited and completed in a few hours, and sent directly to your team. I guess all in all I got what I was asking for, albeit not as fast as I was told (almost 3 weeks longer) so I'm not dissatisfied, but I would have liked to work with the "A" team rather than just a team. Would love to hear from the Admiral himself about if this is meeting the expectations he has for his team, but I'm sure he is busy so if he doesn't I won't be offended.

My experience with the staff at NewDay is best described as "unprofessional" and very confusing. As a retired Navy CPO I found the degree of help needed for someone with limited technology knowledge and a lack of understanding the various online forms and other technical issues was very lacking. When I specified that my wife was not to be part of this loan due to her being in a nursing home and can't have any assets, the day of the closing the documents I was asked to sign had my wife's name on several pages. I told Mr. ** that if my wife was on this mortgage and is considered to have any assets the state of TN can put a lien on my house and in the event I predecease her my house will become the property of the state. Yet, your staff insisted that she would not appear on the title and would not be part of the closing.
Despite being unhappy with this and other issues I had with the long drawn out process that took over three months, I agreed to sign the paperwork and closed this loan. I am very lucky to have an honest neighbor as the checks that I was supposed to receive were sent to my neighbor's house and she brought them to me and was very confused why FedEx would deliver that much money to the wrong address. I was told by Mr. ** and his associate that under Tennessee law even though my wife was in a nursing home and was physically unable to sign the disclosure paperwork, that the loan could not be processed without her signature. I contacted a lawyer in Nashville who said that it was not necessary for my wife to sign this paperwork as long as she was aware of what was being done and could verbally acknowledge the disclosure in front of witnesses. But, Mr. ** insisted that I procure a Power of Attorney so I could sign for my wife.
With time running out and I already lost the original interest rate due to the length of time it took for this process, I begrudgingly accepted the higher interest rate and accepted the loan. If the individuals I had to deal with at NewDay were. Under my command as a CPO in the Navy and I was writing their evaluation they would probably be looking for a new job. I have a very low tolerance with ignorance, incompetence and insubordination. I will not be recommending NewDay to any of my friends or family.
First and foremost, we thank you for your service and sacrifice for our country and for allowing us the opportunity to assist you and your wife with your financial needs. We sincerely apologize for the manner in which you loan transaction was handled and want to assure you that your experience is not the norm.

The advertisement says ease to refinancing your VA claim. We found that was not the case. The underwriters did not understand military documents such as LES, civil service pay statements, and other required documents for a VA loan. After submission we then had to explain what that meant. There was also a constant request of additional documentation. Original closing date passed and then there was a lack ot communication. This required me to reach out to the lead loan advisor to get action. This was after making several phone calls, emails, and text messages.

I am thankful I was able to refinance my home, payoff some debt and begin some home improvements. However, I was completely dissatisfied with the process and the time it took to complete it. It took 65 days to close the loan on this refin. It took me 38 days to close when I brought my house. The process took so long, it exceeded the 45 day rate lock. My rate went up higher than when we begin the process. That difference will cost me over $28,000.00 over the life of the loan.
The original representative I was working with was difficult to reach at times, left me in the dark several times in reference to the status of the loan, kept giving me different dates about closing, ask me to send him documents I had already sent and was uploaded on the portal. I told him I was not happy with the way things were going and I asked to speak with someone that was in charge. No response from anyone. About a week later, I received an email telling me the representative I had be working with all that time was no longer handling my loan. This was extremely frustrating, because I had been calling and emailing him trying to find out the status of the loan. I was told by the representative I was working with that he would work with me until everything was completed, that New Day wouldn't have me working with several different people during the process. Well, I am thankful that part wasn't true.
I turned in every document ask of me in a timely manner, even when it seemed every time I talked to someone or received an email, I was being asked to provide something else. I did everything I was to suppose to do to facilitate the process of the loan and I feel like I got penalized for someone else's failure. I say this because of what I mentioned earlier. The process took so long, the rate lock lapsed and it will cost me over $28,000.00 over the life of the loan. That's a hard pill to swallow and it just wasn't right for me to have to pay for someone else's failure.
On the bright side, I truly appreciate Alex ** stepping in to clean up the mess left behind. He told me what else he needed and got me across the finish line when he said he would. There were several other companies and organizations I could have gone with. I watched the commercials of RADM Lynch for a few years now and believed in what he said and what he and New Day stood for. I put my trust in that and feel let down. Not sure if I would recommend New Day to my friends or not. I have mixed feelings about it, although I truly appreciate Alex for what he did.
Thank you for bringing your recent experience to our attention. At Newday, our goal is to not only keep you informed during every step of the process but to also provide you with excellent customer service as well.

Overall I was satisfied in that my loan liaison seemed to keep on top of things. Only two issues. One being that I was instructed by one of the people to contact FHA as there were some issues with the title work. That didn't seem appropriate and when I contacted the FHA I ran into a dead end and was told that's not normal. Eventually it was resolved. Second, the closing costs on the loan were exceptionally high compared to other VA approved lenders. That was VERY disappointing as a Veteran. Unfortunately I didn't catch that staggering amount until the final phases after appraisal and inspections.

There were times when we were frustrated with the proceedings with our loan application. This had to do with the request for the “ insurance binder” on our townhouse. We provided the insurance information and your loan people still required a “insurance binder “. We never had to provide this with any other mortgage company and no one asked for any such paperwork. This caused a one month delay in the closing for our loan.

Overall experience was okay. Problem was with department handling the cash portion of my cash-refi. The week after my closing they kept requesting checking account routing and account number because the account number was inputted with one digit off. The agent handling my cash-refi wasn’t allowed to provide the correct account number. Then they wanted a voided check. I explained I didn’t have any as I don’t write checks. Then they wanted my bank’s instructions on how to wire transfer cash to my checking account. All of this could have been avoided if I was asked for all of this information to have been asked for at the beginning of the process instead of waiting until the end and stressing me out. Also they shouldn’t piecemeal requests for information.

I am a retired USAF officer and have been a Realtor for 8 years. I am extremely familiar with the lending process as I have used dozens of lenders to help at least 100 clients with loans. Let me begin by saying NewDay was very friendly. Every time I talked with my loan officer or a supervisor, I was treated kindly and with respect. My initial call to NewDay was good and we started off on the correct track. The appraisal was ordered in a timely manner and I thought all was well. The appraisal took a month to get back to NewDay and while this is slightly long, appraisals are often out of the lenders control so no ding on NewDay. My dissatisfaction was due to a few issues.
First, my loan officer seemed very inexperienced and made a few mistakes. Underwriting seemed either very inexperienced as well or overwhelmed. The time delays in dealing with NewDay were unacceptable. They were constantly asking for more paperwork which I provided within 24 hours, usually same day. I finally got senior management involved and the process picked up. To their credit, I had a few issues with my situation and we finally were able to make the refinance happen. My overall thoughts are 1) they are friendly and nice and do want to help, 2) they are growing so fast and have inexperienced people, 3) if you want a refinance or loan done fairly quickly then they are not for you. They did get the refi done so kudos to them but unless you have a "vanilla" situation and can wait at least 60 days, they might not be the best lender choice for you.

Kirk ** was an overall great loan officer to work with. He was patient and helpful and we even ended up with a better rate in the end than what we thought we thought we were going to get and they did us beyond right on the loan fees. The glitch came when we wanted to use a local title company and a mobile notary/signing agent that we had used on another loan. On the day of closing, the signing agent said the title company had told her that we were going to be responsible for her fee. We reached out to Kirk because this didn’t seem right to us and prior to her coming, no one had disclosed this to us. Kirk told me, “No it should not be the case. She should be paid by [the] title [company] directly. I’ll try to make sure it gets taken care of. Either way we will work it out.”
Silly us, we thought that meant New Day USA would pay her fee if the title company did not and now everyone is saying we have to pay it out of our own pocket. Trying to help out a business associate is now going to cost us $150 that no one told us were going to have to pay. We couldn’t push the closing off because we were going out of town for two-weeks the next day and based on what we were told, we believed that either New Day USA or the title company would pay the fee. Lesson learned. No good deed goes unpunished.
