JPMorgan Chase Bank NA Loan Specifics

Available Mortgage Types - 4.5 / 5

Chase offers a wide variety of fixed and adjustable rate mortgage loans. The company recommends fixed rate loans for those customers planning to remain in the house for more than seven years, as they provide predictable monthly payments that aren't subject to the ups and downs of the market. Adjustable rate mortgages (ARM) are ideal for those who intend to stay in their homes for the short term. Chase allows prospective customers to prequalify online and find out how much they can afford. In addition to traditional mortgages, Chase also offers jumbo mortgages. Home prices have steadily increasing in many areas of the country, and have accelerated more rapidly in certain locations. So many home buyers will need loans that exceed the size limit of conventional mortgages. Chase offers loans up to $3,000,000 to qualified buyers in order to meet that need. Chase also offers FHA and VA loans.

Types of Mortgage Loans Offered

  • Fixed Rate 15 Year
  • Fixed Rate 20 Year
  • Fixed Rate 30 Year
  • 5/1 ARM
  • 7/1 ARM

JPMorgan Chase Bank NA Customer Experience

Customer Experience - 4.5 / 5

Chase has online calculators that consider their financial information and allow customers to figure out how much they can afford. Their online application takes only a minute, and some customers can find out if they prequalify quickly. However, they will need to submit their social security number to get through the entire process. Before the loan is approved customers will also need to provide pay stubs for two months, W-2 forms, bank statements, tax returns, and current financial information.

JPMorgan Chase Bank NA Lender Reputation

Reputation & Transparency - 4.5 / 5

JPMorgan Chase Bank NA is one of the largest financial institutions in the world. The company earns an A- rating from the Better Business Bureau. Consumers on Trustpilot award the company just 1.7 out of 5 stars, but this low rating should be seen in context. Not to dismiss customer concerns, but Chase offers dozens of financial products and operates over 5000 branches. Many complaints have nothing to do with mortgages and relate to the quality of service at individual branches.

We note that Chase also has a record of zero complaints with the National Mortgage Licensing System and the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau.

Tried the first time with 600 credit score but got denied. I later applied with a 750 credit score and got the best rates for my present mortgage in Concord, NC. CreditMason was the instrument behind my speedy credit increase, they got rid of my old collection and revolving debts and it improved my score.

Run away as fast as possible. Found out the day before close that our point of contact was no longer with the company and that he hadn't completed all of our paperwork, so we were not clear to close. I was supposed to drive 5 hours from out of state, and everything was cancelled at literally the 11th hour. They didn't even have the courtesy to call and tell me he was gone, I only found out because his voicemail said he was no longer with Chase. Tried to get some kind of compensation or credit, but was waved off after several weeks of following up.

Their terrible process is aggravated by their incompetence. They used an unprofessional appraiser who showed up hours late with no notice, was rude, and her report was filled with factual errors, and poor comparable sales. As a former SRPA appraiser in the NYC area, I found dozens of mistakes and bad practices throughout the document. I outlined many of these and requested a review. They used the same incompetent appraiser, who made no changes. Almost sunk our deal.

Chase has misleading refinance rates that get you to call and then the rate they offer you is way higher. When asked why, was told my re-fi loan was not substantial enough for them to do business with me. When is a $75k loan not substantial, especially when credit rating is above 830? Other factor: have never been late with current loan, ridiculous.

Chase has made our retirement home buying experience a complete nightmare, they have stollen all the happiness and joy out of what should have been an exciting time into major stress and frustration. Misrepresented our options and failed in many aspects. Do not recommend

Chase mortgage sucks. I had them for about 8 months, and I have never worked with a more horrific organization. Please save yourself the headache.

I received a pre qual with chase of up to 350k with 10% down, and was informed by the mortgage banker that my credit and Dti (8%) was pristine and that I can go out and find a home. I’m a NJ resident and I wanted to purchase a home in Florida. During underwriting, 3 weeks away from closing, informs me that I didn’t qualify with 10% down and that I needed to give an additional 5% down. I expressed my concerns with my mortgage banker and he assured me that he could rectify the problem and that I had nothing to worry about. Well long story short underwriter did not reverse their decision. And the mortgage banker had few to no words to express to me. Mind you I’m a twenty five year loyal... Read More

We tried to use Chase and for our mortgage, we provided all the documents and were approved. However when it was time for closing, we tried again and again to get confirmation about closing and they then would not return our calls, we ended up almost losing our home and had to switch to a different company. I would NOT recommend them, they don't care at all and customer service is a JOKE, save yourself time, money and hassles and go with someone else! WORST Experience!!!

I applied for a loan over 2 months ago and couldn't close my escrow in time and had to cancel the loan because they couldn't get final loan approval. I am a private banking client. It was ridiculous the documents they were asking from me after having a long term relationship with the bank.
