I came across a critical review of Stearns Lending on a Scam Reporting website – DirtyScam.com, titled ‘The Whole Home Loan Process’.
DirtyScam allows anonymous submission of complaints from angry consumers and victims of scams. Since the website is hosted offshore (probably in Russia or India), we take this (negative) review against Stearns Lending with a pinch of salt.
Here is what the review says –
Had all kinds of problems with Nicki Harlow-Stearns Lending, my loan officer throughout the whole home loan process.I consider this a bait and switch situation, as several verbal commitments that she made through the loan process (for 45 day rate lock and fee free recasting of loan) were not honored.There were also numerous financial mistakes made in my loan documents which I needed to point out to them in order to have corrected.Stay away from Stearns!
