When initially thinking to do this the sensation of being overwhelmed was at the forefront of our minds. After speaking with a few other lenders we didn't feel any better, until contacting Rocket Mortgage. The entire process was effortlessly achieved.

We were pleasantly surprised at the process and ability to manage a Home Mortgage refinance through Quicken Loans. The computer distance managing of the process was impressive, the communication was excellent. The process was made easier. We appreciate how it was handled. However, We have one improvement to mention. The Costs of the refinance was high. Those closing costs could be a lot less. Now we are $6k more in debt after working so hard to pay our previous mortgage down. So, please think of the homeowner, and get those closing costs lowered. Thanks.

Great experience, closed quickly because of convenient, easy App. No recordings, all calls answered with helpful information. Able to choose closing date time and location. This has been a challenging year but thanks to Rocket Mortgage/Quicken Loans things are looking brighter. Great Customer Service. I highly recommend!!!

Hello, overall the experience was good but the process was significantly delayed because there seemed to be a lot of confusion around how to approach my maternity leave. Good news is that the delay resulted in a further drop in the interest rate of my refinance. My goal was to reduce the amount of money I spent on interest and I was able to do that. Perhaps the only silver lining to a very challenging time.

They were very professional and courteous every step of the way. When our locked in rate time period ran out due to unforseen circumstances they did not charge a extension fee. The closing when quickly and smoothly. Amrock's closing employee was very professional, courteous and the closing was over quickly and smoothly. Kudos to all the personnel.

My experience with RM was great until closing. My disbursement check was sent to the wrong address 3 times. After contacting RM I was told I had to contact the closing agents myself to get resolution. At no point was any help provided by RM and I had to resolve the issue with the closing agent myself. I feel there should be more responsibility and follow up with companies hired to close mortgages.

Quick and easy to talk to someone live and explore options to refinance our home. Able to close quickly thereafter. From start to finish, exceptional service. Only knock would be that the closing costs seem higher now than in my past encounters with Quicken---could be related to additional government rules and regulations.

Start with it taking five months to come to the closing. Then the closing agent from Amrock lost the cashier's check. My employment was verified three different times which was a bit embarrassing and in general it was just nothing like what I have come to expect with Quicken. I think this makes my fifth transaction with them and this one was a disaster. If not for John ** at QL I would have walked away. He was VERY helpful and reassuring.

From my first phone call with Maya ** to the evening of closing this has been a fabulous experience. Maya was professional, extremely knowledgeable, wonderfully able to translate financial jargon into "English" and to provide clear and understandable comparisons of loans and managed to do all this while being patient, kind and quite funny. She managed to make the refi of 2 mortgages work well in tandem throughout the entire process. Rates and fees were unbeatable, even by my boutique investment firm! Rocket website was so easy to navigate and use I am still rather in shock! It is useful even now that both mortgages have closed!

Experience went well. The time to process the loan seemed to take longer than previous experiences with QL. As always the service was great. The time delay in processing the loan almost resulted in cancelling the refinance. This survey is not very good and I will participate in future surveys.

Our initial contact with the agent was excellent and the interface for uploading and signing documents was easy to use and very convenient. My only complaint with the process was that it took a while to get to closing. I understand that the market is especially busy right now, but after around 10 weeks had gone by and we still weren't closing we called to ask what the holdup was. By the next day we were ready to close which made it feel like it had been ready for some time and if we hadn't called it would have been idle for a some time. While I thought this could have gone better, I would still recommend Rocket Mortgage to everyone because of the convenience and lower fees.

It took from June to the end of October to get this loan closed. I was repeatedly asked for documentation of the same items over and over. I was told they weren’t submitted although I had screenshots of emails sent as attachments and uploads to the app. I was tossed from person to person as soon as I requested answers, I was given to a different person.

My originator was excellent! We got the appraisal back and it came back higher than expected, we asked to change it and she said there would be a minor delay. No big deal as this was my request, almost two weeks went by and we heard nothing. I reached out my originator to check on the status. That is when things went downhill. We were asked for more paystubs, were not getting notifications of needing to provide these items. Called the closing team and was told just needed to provide my wife's paystub and all would be good to close. Look the next day (again no notifications) and now they need my paystubs, after being told we were all set. The closing was smooth too.

Generally, the process went well. Although, I was hoping it would have gone faster. Especially, when it got to the very last step of verifying the buyout amount for my 2nd mortgage. The final step before closing. Additionally, maybe a little bit more communication from the lender a little after the finalizing the lender rate for the refinance. We were a bit lost after that.

I refinanced my mortgage to a lower interest rate, with QL, and the entire process was easy, convenient, and fast! I recommend Rocket Mortgage by Quicken Loans. If you are thinking about refinancing, look no further, you will be treated well.

I do not like to bash any organization however my experience with Rocket has been horrible. Yes, I have refinanced many times in the past but this has been the absolute worst experience. I am tracking my own file, dashboard is not updated, and there is no urgency to close my loan. And if you ask your "Associate Banker" for information, you will be referred to a "customer specialist" who will then refer you to the "underwriting team" who might consult with someone in the "closing department."
Bottom line, Rocket cannot support the infrastructure required to handle what are probably very busy times in the refi world due to the low interest rates. No one was in a hurry or concerned with the slow (over 60 days and I am still not closed yet) process - so please tell me, this great new digital approach isn't working too well when no one is responsible for moving these refis through the system.
Also, be prepared that they will take so long to close your loan that you will be uploading redundant documents that were uploaded previously but are now dated. I was told my rate was locked in "for now" but if the loan took longer to close (not from any qualifying issues) then that might impact my interest rate..!! What??? Nice try Rocket, those business practices went out a long time ago.

I am very happy with the loan and the speed of the whole process. From start to close in less than 3 weeks. I am a little disheartened that there wasn't much person to person contact.

I was approved and my QL rep didn’t tell me and didn’t do what he was supposed to do to get my loan done. I had to go from the start all over again and it took months to complete by of lost paperwork and not following up.
Reviewed Nov. 13, 2020
Proactive communication needs to be GREATLY improved. Any updates to our 5+ month refinance process were only received after we reached out for those updates and even then, it took multiple contact attempts. One example was a failure to verify employment. The number provided for verification was my wife's office's landline number. However, since we were all in the middle of COVID, the HR person was not in the office all week and therefore was not there when the attempt was made to verify her employment. This was not communicated to us for 4 weeks and we only learned of it after WE asked what the delay was. 4 weeks is an absolutely unacceptable amount of time to let a refinance stall over a missed phone call. An attempt to contact us for an alternate phone number should have been made immediately.

Quicken thoroughly vetted me; self employed. The process was lengthy and arduous from the Borrower's side but looking at it from the Lender's side; I would have done the same things. It's money being lent to a complete stranger and a lender wants to know the loan is good. My Representatives were friendly, and quick to respond to my questions. They were well trained for the task and kept me well informed. Providing Docs was easy uploads thru the Bowwows' web-portal. I was kept up to date thru the entire process. They texted me to inform of Doc's needed if I failed to check my Account Dashboard timely. I would strongly recommend Quicken.

When I started this process in July, I was led to believe that the total closing costs would be less than $5,000. I was under the impression there were no administrative fees and was not considering the escrow funding that in total raised my loan about $10,000. I may get a little back from my previous mortgage holder from escrow, but if I were to know all of this up front, I would not have refinanced. It will take many years to recover that amount. I know I could have canceled but after waiting so long I did not want to start the process over with another company.

This whole process worked well, everything happened at a good pace too. Everyone involved was helpful. The website was easy to use. It was always obvious if I needed to do anything.

The transparency was better than anything I had seen before in a mortgage transaction (and I've moved or refinanced a fair number of times!).

Probably the single best refinancing experience we've ever had. We were kept constantly in the loop every step of the way, and the closing process--which usually takes 3 hours and lots of ink pens--took about 30 minutes. We were done so fast, I assumed we'd forgotten to do something. So, if you want to refinance, use Rocket and Quicken. You won't regret it.

Overall my experience was good. The main room for improvement would have been with my banker. While trying to close on my loan I was trying to have a payment towards a stormwater fees removed because my condo association pays it.

At that point it only took a couple calls/emails and a couple of documents and the fee was removed. I don't understand why this couldn't have been done during my application process. Otherwise my banker was fine. Everyone since then has been great. It was a minimal fee and not doing a.

I closed the loan 3 weeks ago and just yesterday received a line by line, itemized and easy to visualize cost disclosure document. Maybe I should have asked for one before agreeing. Way too late now for any cost comparison. I was particularly irked that I paid a $25 out going wire transfer fee and a $12 incoming fee to the bank. I was never told about the fee beforehand. I know this was a bank charge but Quicken knew about it because the $25 charge was on the cost sheet I just received. I should have been made aware of this. I did feel a little rushed in the process.

Pros: The representative I worked with was quick to respond to texts, calls, and emails. He was patient and clear with explanations. He was able to answer all my questions and did so promptly. Cons: Not the best rates out there. Instead they claim that they service the loan instead of selling it. Is this better? Probably a little, but not necessarily for the cost of a subpar loan. They were able to match a better offer from a different lender once provided with an official offer from another lender. Overall, pretty positive. They did a decent job and I'm pretty happy with the result.

While waiting for our title insurance policy, he called daily - sometimes several times a day, and quoted some arcane law that didn't even apply.

I was very pleased with the way the process carried out. Tyler was very helpful with any questions we had and explained everything with patiently and with reassurance. Everything with the closing went smoothly as well. I would definitely recommend Quicken Loans to any of my friends. Thank you Quicken Loans!

Went into the discussions saying that I wanted to pay 10% down. And an origination fee of $1,200. With whatever interest rate they could give me as I was selling a house and will be paying off the loan in a short time frame. Things progressed with the insatiable amount of documentation required to appease them. Then some weeks later out of the blue I am asked electronically to sign a loan disclosure that is NOTHING like what we agreed to. Origination fees were now $8,200. And money down was now at 20%.
No call, no discussion, nothing. When I called to ask what was going on no seemed to know and said. “Oh you need to discuss that with your banker”. (A difficult task in itself). So I told the “loan processing team” he had 10 mins to call me back or the loan was cancelled. In the meantime I went to Lending Tree who hooked me up with a loan officer who got me a -$6,200 (yes negative) origination fee plus 10% down. That’s more than a $14,000 difference wow. So in summary if you want great loan valuation DO NOT use ROCKET MORTGAGE. Use a smaller banking institution and you will get more out of all your effort.

Everyone we worked with were top notch. Communication was very clear and everyone was helpful. The only complaint with the process was the amount of time it took to close. There were a couple of months of thinking we'd close any day and we also had to resubmit pay information multiple times due to these unexplained delays. A faster process and more proactive communication about expected delays would have helped to make this a 5 star review. But don't get me wrong, we are very happy with our move to QL.

Whole refi process was very fast and easy. Everything was a much smoother and faster process than what I worked with when I originally bought the house. Even the signing with all of the COVID processes was smooth and easy, with most being completed online and the final step being a person who came to me for the physical signatures. I would very much recommend the service to others.

We closed on our loan 10/13, the whole process started 4/29.. Not sure who/what to blame for the long process, or possibly even blame Coronavirus. I know everyone was probably working as fast as they could, but, I would go weeks to 1 month without hearing from anyone. I was the one who had to call in for updates.

I have used Quicken Loans for the last 20 plus years to buy and refinance our homes. They have always been great. The only glitch we had this time was the first portable Notary got lost and then was very rude when I finally got in touch with her. Quicken immediately took care of it and sent out another notary and she was pleasant.

I had a mortgage with them, they solicited me to refinance. After harassing my wife and I with many calls, I finally took the call. I proceeded to finally hang up after an hour and a half call (I actually fell asleep while on hold). They then proceeded to call me for days, and even had me paged at my office to talk to them. In spite of this, I moved forward. Where they proceeded to tell me one thing, then change. In the end they cost me over $3k to close the refinance, that I never asked for.

I finally had to dispute the charge with USAA and they credited it back to my account. I think they are scammers and purposely low ball appraisals to make money. Stay clear of them. I went with cross country, zero $ out of my pocket, and my payment went down $200.

I started the pre-approval and that went off without a hitch. Once I put in my offer on the home I went into full approval and had no problem. Once we went into processing for closure things spiraled. The mortgage company dropped the ball while assuring me everything was fine by not ordering the appraisal which I paid for after receiving full approval of the loan, approximately one week in. After about 3 weeks of waiting for the survey, doing my personal inspections of the property in that 10 day window and getting bids, purchasing annual homeowners insurance things stalled. I contact them and they stated they were waiting on the title company. Title company told me they were waiting on them for the appraisal. I contacted Rocket again. Told them the title company informed me they were waiting on them.
The processing dept stated that they were waiting on the appraisal report...an appraisal that was paid for by me and supposedly ordered by the loan officer the day I got full approval for the loan. The appraisal company had not submitted their report due to a "family emergency". Once my realtor contacted them for an update after I had contacted them I was informed the closing date was being moved back which caused me all kinds of problems as I had arranged for delivery of a POD for the day after closing. So, now I had to request an extension from the seller and pay additional rent on the home I rented as a transition home. Luckily, I was able to get the extension on both the rental and the closing w/ the seller. However it cost me an additional $1,400.00 and delays all of the vendors who were going to start working on my home once it closed.
This was a slam dunk loan, I had all of my tasks completed within 8 working days. Someone at rocket dropped the ball. I got an alert from Rocket 2 days after my realtor's call that we had to do the extension...the appraisal had been scheduled...color me confused as I had been told a week-and-a-half earlier that it was already done and they were waiting on the report. Never do business with them again. Will be refinancing in a year to get rid of them as my lien holder. If they are this incompetent getting me the loan, I can't imagine what it will be like dealing with them to pay it. I regret not using my own bank. They carried the loan on my last home and it was a flawless process. I am too close to the finish line now and would lose the home if I withdrew at this point to get alternate financing. A relative recommended them who had dealt with Quicken before Rocket took them over.

I still can't find my existing acct. with Quicken Loans. Rocket Mortgage who merged with Quicken Loans are all about selling new loans, not taking care of your present customers. Sorry, Quicken was bought out by Rocket Mtg. All of my loans, credit cards, and other expenses have access to accounts online. But not Rocket Mortgage. You advertise as open 24/7 when I called on Sunday I received a voicemail you were closed, call back at regular hours or leave a message. Not good service. So, I would not recommend persons applying for new loans.

Originally went with them for simplicity, however we will never willingly use them again. Completely scammy and arguably unethical process when it came time to refinance. Waste of time and hundreds of dollars (thankfully not thousands). They spend serious amounts of marketing money to court you with an appeal to the simplicity, but from our experiences I advise friends and fam to start elsewhere if they can.

I've been a customer for almost 5 years and honestly things weren't too bad becoming a new customer but since then obviously you don't have any interactions and basically pay your mortgage payment. I was called to refinance by Rocket Mortgage with what sounded like a good rate and an easy process since I was already a customer. I will tell you that has not been the base at all! They have spent several months trying to do the refinance, they a have asked me for ridiculous items and have made me submit the same paperwork multiple times. I'm now thinking they don't really want me to refinance so they're stalling and making it difficult. Through this process I get no contacts, just the online buttons to interact with and when I ask questions it takes weeks for a response. I have referred many people to Rocket and am now embarrassed I did. That will no longer be the case! I will update once this all comes to an end.

I contacted RocketMortgage to refinance my house. The initial call and conversation with the loan officer was smooth and the loan officer was very responsive. Shortly after completing all my To-Do's on their website, my refinance went into a black hole. No more communication from my loan officer and they constantly ask for new things. Although they told me I was pre-approved, the finish line kept moving. I have to keep monitoring my application on their website to see if they assigned more To Do's.
My loan process has taken so long, that some of my completed To Do's are coming back around for the second time. Honestly, I have no words to describe my frustration. They keep apologizing but no results. I think they have an automated bot that sends apology letters to all their customers. I wish I went somewhere else. It's been almost 2 months and counting.

Rocket Mortgage completely screwed us on our attempts to refinance. We spoke with them in April and were approved. We were told to pay May and not pay June and the mortgage would transfer in July. We did as we were told. But come July our mortgage had not transferred and we were dinged for a late mortgage payment. They dragged their feet on this and kept coming back to us asking for current pay stubs since so much time had passed. We continued to give them everything they asked for as more and more time passed.
Fast forward to today, September, 5 month later, and we receive a call from someone else at Rocket Mortgage telling us that we no longer qualify because our credit score dropped. Why did it drop you ask? Because we got dinged for a late mortgage payment. The payment Paul ** from Rocket Mortgage told us NOT to pay. So now our credit is screwed and we no longer have the options to refinance. Paul ** and Rocket Mortgage should be ashamed of themselves.

I have a mortgage with Quicken Loans/Rocket. I called about refinancing for information purposes as I didn't want to start the process and risk a hard pull on my credit which can lower one's FICO score. I decided to go ahead and do the refinance based on the historically low interest rates and the refinance fee that will go into effect 12/1/2020. The process was smooth up until I got my review of the loan origination fee and closing costs. The portion of the cost that was fees was $15,500. The portion that was prepaid insurance, taxes, etc was $4,500. This meant $20,000 in costs and fees to refinance.
The loan officer was very aggressive trying to close the deal. I told him I was very disappointed in QL/Rocket, I would not allow this huge amount to be added to my loan, I would just go to Bankrate and find a calculator that would show me how to pay off the 17 years on my 20 year loan with them in 15 years. Sure I'm still paying 3.99% interest by not refinancing. But I'm sure the math will show that by paying off my 3.99% loan in 15 years may not cost me any more than paying $15,500 in closing costs and then 2.5% on that amount.
It seems QL/Rocket is driving 15 year loans from my research. I refinanced with Q:L/Rocket in 2017 at 3.99% and the loan origination fees were about $6,500. I told Mr. ** I remember 2008 and all the shady mortgage practices. My brother is a foreclosure specialist in real estate, and I was intimately involved in how lame the mortgage companies and federal mortgage entities were run. I said "I wonder if we will be hearing about QL/Rocket a few years from now, just like other mortgage entities in 2008, and the prospect of shady practices". No response.
It would be impossible to get any kind of estimate on what the closing costs would be. I have very little debt and a strong FICO. This was a straight refi with no cash out. Plenty of equity in the home like $200,00+ over the mortgage based on their appraisal. I think the QL/Rocket has gotten so big they have turned into a monster. Consumer Financial Protection Bureau will have the data based on consumer complaints. I encourage everyone to make a complaint for their tracking. Eventually with enough complaints, they can take action. **.

The experience started very smooth and positive with a quick preapproval. I uploaded all the requested documents timely. After that communication was slow. Ultimately being told a month into it they need 2 years of employment history. Needless to say this could have been said in the beginning to save all involved a lot of time.
