Incredible Experience with SAGE Home Loans

My husband and I could not be more satisfied with our experience with SAGE Home Loans. From start to finish, the loan process was smooth, stress-free, and truly made our lives easier during what can often be an overwhelming time.

We were able to secure a rate and loan terms that were far superior to what many other lenders offered us, which gave us such peace of mind. Every team member we worked with was incredibly professional, quick to respond, and attentive to every detail. The kindness and support we received throughout the process made such a difference.

In particular, we want to recognize Jamison Whittaker and Celena Stocker for going above and beyond. Their responsiveness, knowledge, and genuine care ensured that everything went seamlessly.

We are so grateful to SAGE Home Loans for their outstanding service, and we would highly recommend them to everyone we know. If you’re looking for a lender that combines excellent rates with top-notch customer care, look no further than SAGE Home Loans.

Would Not Recommend

My loan officer (Ty) was fantastic to work with. After that, everything went downhill, quickly. Our original processor either quit or got fired during the process so when we were assigned a new processor, we got conflicting information by way of requirements, etc. Communication from them to us was lacking; at best. I would just recommend going local, if at all possible.

Website is a buggy mess

The loan officer was very professional and helpful. The loan processor was not very communicative and I got surprise requests for documents just before closing.

Also, I got the final closing disclosures just before my bank's wire transfer cutoff time on the day before closing which was stressful.

My main complaint though is the website. What a buggy mess. I got a blank page when trying to log in for the couple weeks leading up to closing. I am a developer myself so I inspected the blank page and there were tons of fairly basic errors preventing it from rendering properly. I opened the website on firefox, chrome and safari to similar results. Also, every time I inquire about rates on the website, it registered me as a new preapproval request, even though I already had an account. This caused me to get emails saying "Just checking in on the home search - do you need anything refreshed right now on your preapproval?" when I had already gone under contract on a house with Sage.

Be careful

Be careful.
The loan processing team was late on my notice to perform date.
Underwriting is very unorganized and requested the same documents that I had submitted several times already.
Loan application process was easy and fast but the team needs has to be more communicative. They were speaking to my real estate agent about financial information and documents required. Not the right person.

After underwriting approval, they scheduled the signing at 11:30am the following day. Underwriting didnt send the documents to the mobile notary until 11:00am on the day of signing. This made the notary 25min late to the appointment and my wife late for work and close to the cut off for wire transfers through the bank.

If you go with them expect to spoon feed them everything and the same documents over and over and over and over again

Great Experience

J.T. and Stacy were both phenomenal when it came to communication from start to finish on the loan process. They were ready and willing to answer my questions and help me get set up with Sage on refinancing my mortgage loan. Job well done!

Worth consideration but Have a Few Things to Work On

Sage's rates are very competitive, if not the best. They don't penalize you for not escrowing your insurance or taxes. That alone will make them worth considering. The initial intake with the loan originator/officer (Marlena Cheeks) was awesome. She always answered my calls or returned them promptly. She kept her word in all respects. The website was easy to use initially. After locking in, is where things started to degrade. Sage hands you off to another person for successive steps. The service was not great afterwards. The next person was hard to reach, didn't return calls and was not responsive in a timely manner. The website was flaky. Never figured that out. I wish your initial person was the same throughout the whole process. They need to figure out the website issue. Lastly, they need to keep customer advised in between steps and keep up-to-date on major status items.

A bit frustrating, but Sage came through

It was a frustrating at first due to several changes in personnel assigned to our loan, but in the final third (after the 2nd loan officer and 2nd loan processor), things started to happen and our loan was approved, even if 7 days late (4 days after original closing date).

Overall, it was a nightmare and I regret working with Sage Home Loans. Do not recommend.

The process started fine when working with sales, but then turned into a nightmare. I had constant issues accessing the online portal (resolved after 2 weeks), very poor communication from the closing specialist throughout underwriting, and I had to constantly "babysit" the process to ensure the loan closed on time. The closing specialist would never respond to my texts or emails, and then last minute the manager had to step in and take over. Talk about stress during an already stressful process. Every time, it seemed that we were starting from the beginning and there was no knowledge base on what had already been provided. Eventually, I worked with a senior manager within Sales, who was the only person who seemed to be able to get things done. The only reason it met the closing schedule was due to my involvement. I regret even trying to go with Sage, and do not recommend it based on my experience.

Fast, simple and no surprises

I was able to do everything online and over phone. J.T. Heinz was quick to answer questions and transparent with his responses. He listened to what my needs were and only presented me options that made sense for me i.e. loan length and points vs no points. Both J.T. and Gloria were courteous and professional during communication. Also, Sage offered one of the best deals I could find. As a current customer of Rocket Mortgage, Rocket told me to sign right away with Sage if what they were offering was real and it was.

Exceptional Experience with Sage Home Loans - Highly Recommend!

I recently refinanced my home mortgage through Sage Home Loans, and I couldn't be happier with the experience. From start to finish, the process was smooth, transparent, and incredibly well-managed thanks to the outstanding team especially J.T. Heinz and Tara Harris-Nelson.

J.T. Heinz, my loan officer, was phenomenal. He kept me informed about various loan period options and the corresponding interest rates, helping me make the most informed decision. I had let him know from beginning that I’m looking for lowest possible rates with maximum lender credits. What truly impressed me was his dedication when rates dropped slightly, J.T. was away on a weekend trip to a lake, yet he still went above and beyond to help me lock in the best rate. That level of commitment is rare and deeply appreciated

Throughout the four weeks long process, J.T. stayed on top of every detail, consistently communicating and ensuring the process kept moving forward. Once the rate was locked, Tara Harris-Nelson stepped in and expertly coordinated the documentation process. She made it easy to gather everything needed for closing, and her professionalism and responsiveness were top-notch.

Not only did I receive the best interest rate for my refinance, but Sage Home Loans also offered the lowest lender fees and closing costs compared to the many other lenders. Others either had higher closing fees and similar rates as Sage or lower closing fees but higher rates than Sage but nobody simply could beat Sage’s rates and closing costs all together. So I'm just so grateful to have worked with such a dedicated and knowledgeable team.
