Inept We bought a house and used them for our loan. After a few months they told us they were taking too much out for taxes and lowered our payment. 18 months later they inform us they made another mistake and did not take out enough for taxes and we owe $6,000 in back taxes. These people failed miserably at property escrow monitoring. Do not use these morons. They are completely inept at banking.

I applied for a HELOC with Flagstar due… I applied for a HELOC with Flagstar due to their advertisment of low / no fees. I lived in Michigan previously and knew the name. My credit report was pulled immediately. I was presented with a list of items to submit which I returned indicating higher "income" changes would show within 60 days. I was declined due to debt/income ratio without considering the increased income. Further, the loan/to/value ratio (their calculation) was less than 70%. I do no care about the line of credit. What I care about is the negative impact on my credit report for 2 years. CONSUMERS be mindful that all credit inquiries remain on your credit report for 2 years. As few as 3 will lower your credit score. My personal opinion is that lenders should pre-qualify based upon a "soft-pull" of your credit.

BEWARE of FLAGSTAR Bank - They SUCK!! Unfortunately my mortgage was sold to Flagstar Bank. They SUCK!! They increased my mortgage $125 without my approval! My insurance company sent multiple letters to them because they said I didn't have enought coverage. I DO! DON'T use this bank company if you can help it. I had no choice!!! THEY ARE AWFUL!!!!

Everyone else has already said it so well...the worst! Everyone else has already said it so well, in a nutshell: this is an absolute joke of a mortgage holding company. Want a tangible example? In the year 2023 A.D., they don't have a functional app. And the browser platform gives all kinds of (inaccurate) error messages, setting up auto-pay is a nightmare, they call you over and over without saying why. Truly difficult to imagine there could be any options worse than them. Like so many others, I had no choice in the matter. C'mon, Flagstar, get your SH&T together!

Run away from Flagstar Bank! Run away from Flagstar Bank!! Thank me later... They will close your bank account with one letter with no explanation out of the blue. Instead of scrambling last minute to move your banking somewhere else, do your banking with some big-name bank, not this shady institution. Save yourself time and aggravation. We had a checking account with our old bank for 20 years, and after Flagstar took over, the account was closed for no reason... Don't be next. Many other customers at my branch got the same treatment.
