I was disappointed with our experience with Rocket Mortgage and would not recommend them based on how our closing was handled.

Due to poor communication and delays involving someone in the Chicago office, we missed our scheduled signing by two days. John’s team worked to have everything prepared and sent over on Sunday night so the East Coast team would receive it first thing Monday morning, yet ...
I was disappointed with our experience with Rocket Mortgage and would not recommend them based on how our closing was handled.

Due to poor communication and delays involving someone in the Chicago office, we missed our scheduled signing by two days. John’s team worked to have everything prepared and sent over on Sunday night so the East Coast team would receive it first thing Monday morning, yet the signing was still delayed with very little explanation, despite the urgency of the situation.

Throughout the process, Rocket Mortgage was persistent when requesting paperwork from us, but that same sense of urgency did not seem to apply when action was needed on their end. Whether the issue was with John’s team or another department, the lack of communication and follow-through left us with a very negative impression.

John helped me be able to get the FHA loan but helping my boyfriend build a credit score quick so we could get approved for the loan. He was always helpful. And I appreciate that I was able to do a rate buy down to get a good interest rate and APR. He was always nice and helpful. The process was long and hard, but having help made that process easier, and I was able to close on my home in 35 days....John helped me be able to get the FHA loan but helping my boyfriend build a credit score quick so we could get approved for the loan.

Plus, I liked the lenders credit for going through rocket mortgage with Redfin.Read MoreRead Less

I spoke with a few lenders and chose to work with John because he was so kind, knowledgeable, and quick to respond to all my questions. I am a first time home buyer and John helped me through the process and was genuinely happy for us when we found our home. He also helped us get the best rate. I highly recommend working with John!

His knowledge of the loan options and the market was impressive; he guided us toward the best solution for our situation without ever pushing unnecessary products. What truly stood out was how fast John responded—whether it was late in the evening or over the weekend, he was always quick to reply with clear, helpful information.
Thanks to John’s expertise and responsiveness, our loan closed smoothly and ahead of schedule. If you’re looking for a loan officer who combines professionalism with genuine care, John is your guy!
