Ease of Process - 4.3 / 5

Borrowers are required to at least have a 640 or fair credit score to qualify for a loan. However, this means above average interest rates or less than ideal loan terms. LendingHome only requires a 5% equity which makes it easy for more homeowners to qualify for a mortgage refinance. This is significantly above industry standards with most lenders requiring homeowners to at least have 20% equity in their home to qualify for a loan.
