Derek is fantastic! He helped us with our purchase of our home and our refinance and was on point every moment. Even through the ups and downs of rates changing he was always there to help guide us to make sure we were getting the right price that actually benefited us. He knows his stuff he knows the right questions to ask and how to set up someone for success.

Working with Derek was a fresh of breath air in a very hectic home buying experience. I am deeply grateful for all the time and effort he spent making sure we were taken care of. Without a doubt, Derek was the most helpful person we worked with. Thank you Derek for all you do! I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him or Rocket to other first time home buyers.

Throughout the entire home buying process, nobody was on our side like Derek was. He both worked and advocated for us from even before we officially signed on with rocket mortgage. For what is simultaneously the most important and also most confusing purchase of most people’s lives, there is nobody I would recommend more highly than Derek Bricknell.

From start to finish, Derek Bricknell was clear, direct and always responsive. A pleasure to work with and always available for questions and concerns. Using the Rocket App, and communication from the team, we navigated all the needed documents and kept on track. This is our second experience with Rocket and we are very pleased with the new impovements.

..You know how you spread butter on some hot toast? That's Derek. 'smooth as butter' He took me through the whole process of buying my new home start to finish. Him and his team at Rocket Mortgage were the most proffessional and attentive group I've worked with in a real estate transaction! Thank you Derek, to you and your team!

He is hardworking, passionate about his job, knowledgeable, honest and caring. Even though we didn’t buy a very expensive home, he treated us like a top priority. I was talked into choosing a local bank over Rocket Mortgage by a realtor and family. I initially tried First Commonwealth bank and had a TERRIBLE experience. They lost me a 15,000 grant and the home I was suppose to close ok due to the loan officers incompetence. I found out a day before closing that closing was postponed. I wasted a weeks vacation that I took from work to move. Then after their mess up they made up lies about my credit report and tried to blame it on that. Defeated I almost bought an RV to live in with my family. I decided to try one last time and went back to Derek at Rocket. I just closed on my new home two days ago. The process was so easy and went smooth. I was supported by the team every step of the way. Derek even lent an ear to listen to my personal problems! He is ALWAYS working!! He deserves a raise and vacation! Anyway, being able to close so easily with Rocket showed me that First commonwealth lied to cover their mistake and their lie about my credit standing almost cost my family a home to call their own. Thank you Rocket Mortgage and especially Derek for making my dreams of being a homeowner a reality. I would recommend this bank to ANYONE. You can personally call me anytime if you have doubts! Derek has my number! Don’t believe the lie that local banks are better!Read MoreRead Less
