Best Mortgage Lender Overall
Quicken is our best overall mortgage lender for two reasons:
- Their nationwide reach
- Their excellent customer service.
Rated "Among the Best" according to JD Power's Primary Mortgage Origination Satisfaction Study, Quicken has consistently ranked highest in customer satisfaction for loan originations with JD Power for ten consecutive years.
Quicken's YOURgage program sets it apart from the pack. YOURgage allows borrowers to choose the term of their fixed-rate mortgage and get a loan of up to $510,400. First-time homebuyers can pay as little as 3% down, which is especially helpful for first-time homebuyers who may not have 20% saved for a down payment.
Finally, as Quicken has completed 96% of all electronic mortgage closings in the country, the company has a wealth of experience completing the process online, which is highly convenient for most applicants these days.
