I applied, after allot of research on my part, to re-finance our
Home on 1/6. I informed the representative after some
Discussion, that under no terms was I coming out of pocket with any
Money or paying for anything unless he and his company were 100% sure
My loan would go through. I informed him and his director in
Numerous conversations that I did not wish to proceed with the process
If I did not have this guarantee. When I was verbally assured by him
And with the approval of his director that it would go through, I gave
A $400 deposit for various fees which were to be returned at closing.
I once again explained that if this was not a sure thing that I did
Not want to proceed and once again given assurances that there would
Be no issues.
The appraisal came in grossly under valued at $210,000 which is well
Under the range they assured me my home was worth $270,000-285,000.
When I asked to see the appraisal I found home sales used as a
Comparison were not any where near my home's location, size or age.
After many conversations between a variety of Quicken Employees I
Submitted per their request listings that I have found in my area that
Are the size and closer to the age of my home. These listing showed a
Number of homes to be selling for anywhere from $276,000 to $350,000.
There are currently 2 homes for sale in my neighborhood by the same
Home builder for $350,000 and $400,000 and they are the same size and
Age or smaller. I also discovered that a neighbor home sold for
$270,000 last year which was not considered by the appraisal. All
These prices are are big difference from the insulting appraisal
Conducted by Quicken. I then receive the yearly assessed value of my
Home and it is $334,500.
I have submitted my findings to Quicken and to no avail they have not
Changed or considered changing their position.
I finally received a credit of $51.00 after waiting for weeks.
I just want everybody to be warned about the poor business practices of this company
So others are not scammed as we were. Don't trust them, go to someone else!
