I run this post about every 3 or 4 months or so. It always seems to get many hits and responses. In this ever changing mortgage market we need to share all the resources we can. So here goes...

 

My top 3 choices as of this very moment:

 

1) - Sierra Pacific

2) - Cardinal Financial

3) - Flagstar

 

Now more than ever it is NOT price that I look for. The top heavy national lenders offer service that is abismal. I have found the regional and smaller players that seem to employ people who are compensated on performance rather than hire clock watchers are the ones I want to team up with. I have heard others talk about Amtrust being very good. I have yet to use them. I also hear people talk about Provident Funding. They were the price leader but not anymore.

Everyone offer up some names here.....  it will benefit us all ~~~~

I like Homecomings Financial the best service! At least here in Texas!

Thanks for the info.  I too have great service and fast closings with Flagstar.  They are very straight forward about what they want to see.

I think a lot of these experiences are regionally based, simply because of where operation center are located and they are not lal the same. Here in Tennessee, Taylor Bean and Whitaker (TBW) is looking good and Franklin American Mortgage is showing some strength. I have heard Wells Fargo (yep, I said Wells!) is strong in FHA, but only because the local deals are being processed in Chicago....best of luck

You are absolutely correct Lewis!  Smaller more personal feel banks/lenders are taking a big chunk of business from the rest!
