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.

  • Fixed Rate 15 Year

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.

We have a variable rate Equity loan that is based on the 10 Year Treasury. As soon as it hit 3.00 Chase raised our loan rate. Since then the 10 year has crashed...down to 2.40 today and close to that rate for several weeks now. Has Chase lowered the rate? Their answer is that they only adjust rates on a regular time basis...like when the 10 year is high?

In February 2019, we needed a quick mortgage commitment as we purchased a new house in Virginia before we sold our existing house in Long Island, NY. We decided that JP Morgan Chase in Garden City, NY would be our choice. We were put in touch with Steve Remmert, who was easy to talk to, had a great attitude and who had quickly explained several options as to how to meet our obligations. Steve did most of the leg work for us - setting up the account, contacting the lending group, reaching out to the title company, etc., all while gathering the necessary information that would satisfy a successful loan request. Steve's continuous follow through made the entire process bearable. We... Read More

Chase needs to be stopped. They are terrible with customer service. They also are very difficult to deal with concerning property checks, unapplied funds, other fees. They have been sued thousands of times and have lost many class action law suits for many reasons.
