Overall Rating: 4.5 / 5 (Excellent)

Amerisave is a large, well-known mortgage lender that offers a wide range of mortgage products, including FHA loans. FHA loans stand out as one of the most accessible and affordable mortgage options. They are government-guaranteed loans, which are considered lower risk than conventional mortgages and often come with lower interest rates, lower down payment requirements, and more lenient credit qualifications.

Amerisave has nearly twenty years of experience in FHA lending and has funded more than $103 billion in loans. The company offers FHA loans for both purchases and refinancing.

It's easy to get a quote from Amerisave by answering a few questions, though when we tested the quote system, it only returned one loan option for a 30-year fixed rate loan. Customers who want to do a little more digging into their options will need to speak directly to a loan officer. The company offers a live chat option for that conversation, which makes it a little more convenient to get the information you need. The loan originator we spoke with was responsive and informative.

Loan Specifics - 4.5 / 5

Amerisave offers FHA loan terms of 30, 25 and 15 years and 5-year adjustable rate mortgages. In some cases, for example if you have a high credit score or can make a large down payment, the loan originator may steer you in the direction of a conventional loan. We appreciated that effort on the company's part to advise on the best deal. FHA mortgages aren't always the most economical option, because, with an FHA loan, borrowers have to carry private mortgage insurance on their loans, which can amount to $100 or more in premiums per month.

Amerisave Customer Experience

Customer Experience - 4.5 / 5

We had a really terrific online experience with Amerisave. We received an instantaneous quote by filling out a simple form. We were then immediately connected with a loan originator via live chat, who was able to answer a wide variety of questions on our rate quote. He answered questions specific to FHA loans, including the various term and rate options available, and proactively provided information that compared FHA loans to conventional loans.
