Rates

Regions Mortgage does not publish its starting rates online. However, you can request a customized rate quote from the company directly from its website.

In 2021, Regions Mortgage had a slightly higher average home purchase rate than the national average (about 0.05% higher). In the year prior, the company’s average rate was 0.03% lower than the national average.

Interest rates vary by borrower. Typically, the lowest rates are available to borrowers with excellent credit scores (800 and up) and low debt-to-income ratios (below 36%) — basically, the borrowers with the greatest risk of default generally have higher interest rates.

Regions Mortgage offers both fixed- and adjustable-rate mortgages (ARMs). Most borrowers prefer fixed-rate mortgages because they offer a predictable monthly payment. However, an ARM could be useful in some situations. For example, if you plan to sell your home in a few years, you may consider getting an ARM to save in interest. ARMs usually offer a low introductory rate for the first few years.

Application process

You can begin the application process online through the Region’s Bank website. You can apply for pre-qualification (which doesn’t require a hard credit check) or skip forward to preapproval.

The preapproval application will ask for information about your income, assets and debt. Be prepared to upload financial documentation, like bank statements and pay stubs. Regions Mortgage uses this information to determine how much you can borrow.

If you need assistance during this process, the company provides a phone number and email address for borrower support. Your dedicated loan processor will also reach out to help you finalize your application.

Patrina, a ConsumerAffairs reviewer from Georgia, had this to say about their experience with Regions Mortgage: “If we could give more than 5 stars we would! We did an FHA loan through Regions and closed just yesterday. Our loan originator Nick and loan processor Julianne were both responsive and knowledgeable and kept abreast of what was going on with our loan process every step of the way…”

Regions Mortgage application features

Loan types

Regions Mortgage offers a wide variety of home loan options, including conventional loans (with fixed or adjustable rates), VA loans, FHA loans, USDA loans and jumbo loans. Loan terms can vary depending on the loan type, but most conventional loans have either 15-year or 30-year terms.

The company also offers loans to fund new home renovations or new construction (construction-to-permanent). The construction-to-permanent loan allows for a single closing for both the construction loan and the permanent mortgage loan.

In 2021, Regions Mortgage received 23,761 home purchase applications. Of those applications, about 3% were preapprovals denied. About 66% were closed, and about 11% were denied (the industry as a whole sees about an 8% denial rate.)

Loan applications for home purchases only by year

Refinancing

The majority of the home loans Regions Mortgage originated in 2021 were for refinancing (42% were refinance loans and cash-out refinances combined). About 33% were for home purchase loans.

Borrowers typically choose to refinance their existing mortgages when they’re certain they can save money somehow (either by lowering their interest rate or by shortening their loan term). Many borrowers chose to refinance in 2020 and 2021 because rates had fallen to record low levels. Even a small reduction in your mortgage interest rate can equate to significant savings over the loan term.

Since 2021, rates have been rising steadily; the average rate on a 30-year fixed-rate mortgage has close to doubled in a year. For this reason, fewer borrowers are expected to refinance in 2022.

HELOC and home equity loans

Regions Mortgage offers both HELOC and home equity loan options. The HELOC has a 10-year draw period and a 20-year repayment period. The home equity loan comes in seven-, 10-, 15- and 20-year terms. The company offers an interest rate discount for both HELOCs and home equity loans if you set up an automatic payment with your Regions Mortgage checking account.

Home equity loans carry fixed interest rates, which won’t change over the loan term. However, HELOCs usually have low introductory rates for a short time (with Regions Mortgage, it's six months). After that, the interest rate is variable and can fluctuate based on the prime rate.

A home equity loan is generally the better option if you know how much you need to borrow and need those funds upfront in a single payment — like if you plan to renovate your kitchen and you’ve received a cost estimate from a contractor. With a home equity loan, you’ll begin repaying the loan immediately.

However, a HELOC can be useful if you don’t have a cost estimate but know you’ll need consistent access to cash in the short term. For instance, you may plan to update your home with new fixtures and appliances but prefer to make smaller purchases over a longer period of time. Keep in mind that with a HELOC, you’re only required to make interest-only payments during the draw period, which could sink you into debt if you aren’t careful.

Requirements

Regions Mortgage doesn’t disclose much info about its borrower requirements online. Conventional loans generally have higher credit score requirements than government-backed mortgages; you’ll likely need at least a 620 credit score to qualify for a conventional loan. Credit score minimums for VA, FHA and USDA loans can vary by lender.

Down payment requirements can also differ, but you’ll probably need to offer at least 3% down for a conventional loan and 3.5% for an FHA loan (if your credit score is 580 or higher). VA loans and USDA loans typically have no down payment requirements.

National mortgage requirements by type

Cost and fees

Regions Mortgage doesn’t disclose its lender fees, but origination fees, which are usually 0.5% to 1% of the loan amount, are typical. There may also be application and underwriting fees, though most lenders lump these into the origination fee.

Lender fees are part of the overall closing costs you’ll pay to start a new loan. Closing costs include fees for services like the title search and home appraisal as well as prepaid items like property taxes and mortgage insurance premiums. Altogether, closing costs tend to average between 2% and 5% of the loan amount.

Once you’re preapproved, you’ll receive a Loan Estimate, which will state all the potential closing costs. Your lender will also provide you with the Closing Disclosures three days before closing, which shows the finalized totals.

    I recently switched Home Owners Insurance. Regions paid the new premium, but my refund from the old company arrived one day late. Even though my new insurance is less they send a refund and raised my monthly payment by almost 50 dollars a month. It is nearly impossible to talk with anyone about my issues. Everything is automated. Very disappointed my old loan was sold to this company.

      Wow Terrible Customer Service and After a poor review they call Me and want to verify my information. I said you called me and obviously know my number and information. They bought our mortgage from United Wholesale Mortgage. I never had a problem getting the mortgage payment taken out on the first of the month unless a holiday or weekend but this company said they could only take it out if I banked with them. Obviously not ever going to happen. Avoid this company and go with someone who cares, anyone else. Just a joke.

      I’m just so tired of dealing with Regions Mortgage. I can’t see straight. I have filed a complaint with a Better Business Bureau. I’m gonna file a Consumer complaint. I’m just gonna Google all the places where I can file a complaint against a mortgage company in a bank. I have Crohn’s disease and I’ve been sick. Anytime I’ve tried to call to get any assistance. I get 15 different answers.

      Today, when family members tried to help me make a payment to get caught up they were turned away. That was the last straw. And on top of that I had had a conversation with somebody named Don, who said that I was on like a payment plan and I was able to get caught up on payments. However, it was documented in my chart that I stated that I was going to make those payments that way. They record these phone calls. They can go back and play it and see I’m not lying. So, I was called a liar today basically. I have learned that I need to start recording these phone calls and document everything Myself. I’ve already been doing that with email.

      Today was the last straw. I have spent the last week trying to get my insurance to approve a $27,000 shot for my Crohn’s. I haven’t felt well and I certainly didn’t need this. So, I am livid at this point in time. If Tom Cruise shows up and wants to make a payment, let him! You do not turn them away. I should not have had to take time out of my day to call and tell somebody to let them make a payment. They knew the information they’ve Helped me before. I’m I’ve went months without working. I’ve recently out of work for two weeks due to my health. So, when I tell you, I don’t wanna deal with Regions mortgage. I don’t wanna deal with Regions mortgage. In fact, I’d rather claw my own eyeballs out at this point in time then deal with regional mortgage. I’d rather talk to Adolf Hitler than deal with Regions mortgage.

      So trust me, I’m gonna file a complaint with every agency I can. I may even contact the news stations and let them know that they don’t work with people they’re sick or disabled. I also may speak with an attorney. That’s where I’m at after today. After dealing with my health insurance company all week, this was the last thing I wanted to deal with, But it’s just not a normal day unless I have to deal with Regions mortgage. I wouldn’t know how to function in the world unless I’m arguing with regions mortgage. That is very sad.

      I wish I could fire Regions Mortgage. They don't know anything about mortgages and escrow. They overcharged me in escrow for the first year and argued with me when I asked for a refund mid-year. Now, when I paid more into my escrow, they claim they can't lower the escrow payment. What? So, I could fully fund and cushion my escrow account and they would still expect me to pay their calculated escrow? I never had any mortgage company do that. I didn't choose Regions and would never recommended them to anyone. Oh, and their website is constantly broken.

      We have been doing business with Regions Bank for over 20 years. Recently, we tried to obtain a HELOC on our current house but were denied because we live on leasehold land. We were informed that if we had an existing mortgage, they could lend us money, but since we have paid off our house, they could not offer us a loan. While we do live on leasehold land, so do over 6,000 other leasehold owners. My question is: Are they lending money to new homebuyers on leasehold properties? Of course they are! But if you are financially stable, have already made the "mistake" of buying a house on leasehold land, and are not currently in debt to Regions Bank, you can forget about asking them for money.

      I've had an incredibly disappointing experience with Regions Mortgage. From the beginning, their customer service has been consistently unhelpful and dismissive. Any time I’ve reached out with questions or concerns, especially regarding my escrow account or payment allocations, I’ve received vague answers or been bounced around to different departments with no resolution.

      The biggest issue has been the complete lack of transparency in how my mortgage payments are applied. Despite making full, on-time payments, I’ve noticed unexplained discrepancies in my escrow balance and no clear breakdown of how my payments are being allocated. When I asked for clarification, I was given generic responses that did nothing to address the issue.

      It's unacceptable for a financial institution to handle something as important as a mortgage with such little accountability. I expected professionalism and clear communication, but instead, I’ve been left confused and frustrated time and again. I would not recommend Regions Mortgage to anyone looking for reliable service or transparency. There are better lenders out there who treat their customers with respect and keep them informed.

      It's frustrating when online services prioritize profits over customer safety. In times of extreme weather conditions like a blizzard, flexibility and understanding should be key. It's important for businesses to consider the well-being of their customers, especially when faced with unforeseen circumstances that could jeopardize their safety. Prioritizing money over customer concerns can lead to a lack of trust and loyalty in the long run.

      I have an escrow account with my Regions Mortgage. Regions servicing did not pay one of my property tax bills on time, and I was assessed a late fee. Regions refused to cover the late fee. Regions said it follows the Real Estate Settlement Procedures Act (RESPA). RESPA section 1024.34 states, "the servicer shall make payments from the escrow account...to avoid a penalty."

      I contacted Regions Mortgage and requested a payoff for HELOC on a account that has no activity. They asked me to pay $976 as recap fee which was never disclosed during the HELOC closing process. This bank is extremely unethical and misleads customers into signing contracts. Not to mention the exorbitant fees for HELOC closure that is unheard of and no other financial institution charges. Regions Mortgage has a mispriced model for charging early termination fee for a HELOC loan.

      I will close all accounts with Regions, and will never do business with them again. I've paid off several mortgages and HELOC with different banks and have always paid on time and never encountered or paid such high fees for closing an account that had zero activity. Unfortunate for them to lose a great customer and referrals they would have had due to this.

      If you been hunting for a house lately, you can sympathise with my stress of bidding for a house in the market when house ownership quickly becoming a privilege.

The broker who prepared our letter of offer was a friend of ours, but friend or no friend, her interest rate went through the roof and she could not offer a decent deal. We decided to look around last minute since one of the conditions for seller was fast closing.

      We just closed in early December on a home in Margaritaville Hilton Head. I had secured the services of Regions for the loan one year earlier since the house was under construction. The loan was from the Ponte Vedra branch. It was awful. A few weeks before closing my loan contact called all confused about assets and underwriting. I said “isn’t it late for this?” No response. He forgot we put $160,000 down for the construction even though I told him several times. Then, this is the best part. He made me dig up proof even though it was disbursed through our Regions account. I emailed him a couple times before closing to make sure we were ready. No response to voice mails or emails from our loan officer (Dane **).

      To make a long story short, they missed three closings and we had to pay close to $4000 in hotel and storage costs. They turned a happy occasion into a miserable affair, The best part is I complained to Dane and he said he would talk to his boss and have someone contact me. Crickets.

      My partner and I had a home loan that was sold to Regions Mortgage. A couple of years in my partner unfortunately had to file bankruptcy. The house, which was in both our names, was not included in his bankruptcy in any way, and the payments had never been made a day late or a dollar short. We were always current and enrolled in auto-pay, but because he filed, Regions took away any access I had online to view our account or make a payment. They tacked on $950 for "attorney fees", even though the house was NOT included in the bankruptcy, and made it nearly impossible for me to even make the monthly payment. I can't pay online or through their automated phone service.

      The statements don't come now until a couple of days before the due date so I don't have time to mail a check. I have to call in every month, get transferred around and asked to verify the same information multiple times, and then they seem genuinely surprised that I actually want to give them money. They no longer report the account at all on my credit file (I did not file with him), so I don't get any credit for paying my mortgage. It's like they would rather have us just get past due and then foreclosed on than to continue making our payment on time and in full every month. Go figure!

      Contacted Regions Mortgage and requested payoff for HELOC. Received email titled, "payoff request" with letter attached. Took the letter and check for the amount to the branch same day. Cancelled check shows processed same day; however, about a week later rec'd a statement with an amount due for interest on the same day of payment. Called and spoke with 3 different people on 5 separate occasions and was told by a "supervisor" he would send to research department to get the undue interest removed. Five days later I called back because he never called me with status as he offered, and I was told I was sent the incorrect payoff letter and was sent a "paydown" letter instead. The amount was the full amount due on the account but the daily interest accrued for the date of the letter...blah, blah, blah and I needed to pay that interest.

      I've closed all accounts with Regions, deposit accounts & HELOC and will never do business with them again. In the past 15 years, I've paid off two mortgages and one HELOC with them, always on time and always with a payment that was more than what was due.

However, in looking at our checking account, which is with Regions, we were able to verify that the check had cleared over a week before the payment was due. Regions Mortgage, however, has now taken over a week to "research" the matter and are still not able to tell us where the payment has gotten to. Needless to say, we are very unhappy with Regions Mortgage. We have also been told that the two--Regions Bank and Regions Mortgage--do not play well together. That is to say it takes an act of Congress, apparently, for Regions Mortgage to look at our Regions Bank checking account and see that, yes, a check was written to Regions Mortgage and cleared the checking account in a very efficient manner. It's hard to understand what is taking so long. At this point, I do not recommend Regions Mortgage.

      I am looking to refinance my current home loan and have excellent credit. One of my friends is a loan officer for Regions and the rate and closing costs were what I was looking for. I started the process in December of 2020. It is now February and still no closing date set. No one returns calls or emails but they were quick to send out an appraiser and charge me $450.00 to get things started. Sadly I'm looking to other financial institutions at this point. I owe less than 45% of my home's appraised value and was looking for a 15 year loan with 10K equity washout to upgrade the HVAC system. Don't waste your time with this bank.

      Don't waste your time with anyone at Regions. I firmly believe they have training classes on how to ignore and irritate their customers. Started a loan process 45 days ago for a CP loan within one of the Atlanta branches. After a closing date was set I get a note from him saying the contract with the builder. He said Regions would need an updated contract but would not indicate what needed to be fixed. All this comes after 45 days when it should have happened in the first week. The 45 days it took to get to this point could have easily been done in 10 days but both the loan officer and his sidekick respond to emails after about 3 or 4 days. I have since tried to call 3 other loan officers in branches near me looking to switch the application over to them and no one answers their phone, returns calls, or responds to emails. Looks like Regions systemically has a policy of poor customer service. DON'T WASTE YOUR TIME with these people.
