PENNY MAC SUCKS!!!!! Have had increases due to taxes 3 years in a row...which NEVER happened when I was with Rocket Mortgage (for over 10 years!). Most recent increase was $200/month. It's always due to "taxes", but their record keeping is deplorable. Have tried multiple times to create an online account via the PennyMac website, but keep getting error messages. They're "customer service" is literally non-existent. HORRIBLE COMPANY. DON'T WALK...RUN AWAY FROM THIS MORTGAGE COMPANY!!!

Messy and unprofessional Awful experience with PennyMac. First, the company failed to pay my homeowners insurance this past year, no reason, no explanation, same mortgage and insurance for years, PennyMac just never sent payment and suddenly I wasn't insured. Then I'd started the process of acquiring a PennyMac home equity loan, was more than qualified, submitted all requested documents, and then each day, the processor wanted one more thing, two more things, all the requests were in writing, often indecipherable, often reflective of documents I'd already submitted. The loan agents didn't seem in touch with the processors, and would then explain what they thought the processors meant, it was all messy and unprofessional. I'm now taking my entire mortgage elsewhere, which will be a little expensive but worth it to be finished with PennyMac.

They paid the wrong insurance carrier… They paid the wrong insurance carrier (Orion180) after we had switched to another carrier, whom they also paid, and now want to double my monthly payment due to Escrow shortage. Uh, nope, you guys paid Two(2) policies. I have spent way too much time trying to get this resolved after more than a month of trying. Trying to get resolution is almost impossible because it's almost impossible to talk to a live person. Looking to refinance at this point.

Disaster They messed up my escrow account and will not be accountable. Horrible customer service and won't give you a person to work with. My mortgage was sold to them. If you have a choice - never go there.

My experience was great My experience was great! The entire team was knowledgeable, prompt with information and responses. Chris reached out every step of the way to communicate what needed to be done and answer any questions. Process went smoothly and quickly, closed early within a few weeks and am highly satisfied. Use Pennymac for your mortgage/re-finance needs!
