Mortgage servicing complaints are particularly consequential — errors here can affect credit scores, trigger late fees, or in the worst cases contribute to foreclosure proceedings.

How to read this table: Ranked from worst (most complaints) at the top to best (fewest complaints) at the bottom. Hover column headers for metric explanations.

A high mortgage complaint rate signals customers are regularly encountering problems serious enough to escalate to federal regulators. A CFPB complaint is a formal record the institution must respond to. Read our full methodology →

WHAT TO DO ABOUT IT

A high complaint rate from your mortgage servicer means when an escrow error hits or you need hardship help, you are more likely to face months of runaround.

You cannot always choose your servicer after closing - but you can choose your lender at origination and you can refinance away from a bad servicer. If your current servicer has a high complaint rate, refinancing can move you to a better servicer AND lower your rate at the same time. The best-rated alternative in this category has a complaint rate 19× lower than the highest-rate institution shown.

Fair Lending Data · FFIEC HMDA 2023

Mortgage denial rates by race — tracked across 63 lenders

The Home Mortgage Disclosure Act (HMDA) requires lenders to report application outcomes by applicant race. ComplaintRate cross-references this with CFPB complaint data — surfacing lenders where minority applicants face both higher denial rates and worse complaint outcomes. Source: FFIEC HMDA 2023 data, published by the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau.

Mortgage fair-lending data
ComplaintRate publishes Black-versus-white mortgage denial-rate ratios only where each race group has a sufficient application sample (at least 20). Per-race application counts are not currently available for verification, so institution-level disparity figures are not reported here. Each institution's profile links to its FFIEC HMDA source data.
