First Commonwealth Mortgage Inc.

Good company

Emily worked very hard to close on my house in under 2-3 weeks. She was always available to talk to at any hour of the night. In the end I was happy with my purchase, but I was told through out the process that their was no appraisal needed. We were suppose to close on a Monday, but due to the last minute appraisal the Thursday before we did not close on time. Which put me $575 due to me at closing to cover my cost of the appraisal, did not receive anything. In the end I’m happy and would recommend them

Thank You Chris Joly!!!

I worked with Chris Joly for about a 1-1/2 years as a new to be home owner. He was so patient & very helpful, answering all my questions no matter how simple or complex or naive they may have been. He really made it an easy & fairly stress free situation. He helped make everything work out in my best interest & made me feel like I really did have a clue what I was doing, as going into it I didn't.

Worked hard for what was right for me

I had a great experience with using First Commonwealth services and their broker Jenny Vermillion. She was very knowledgeable and helped me every step of the way. I felt that she was working very hard for me and my interests. Beyond that she was very personable, easy to talk to and very responsive. I got a little bit of pressure from my Realtor to use a local mortgage company because it was easier, faster, etc. but I'm so very glad I stuck with FCM because they ultimately found what was best for me. I would strongly recommend using FCM, specifically Jenny Vermillion, to anyone who asks.

Great buying experience

First Commonwealth was the lender that had the best rates and reviews when I turned to Lending Tree prior to starting my home search. I was contacted by several pushy lenders. However, when I reached out to First Commonwealth, Bill Bell was responsive, patient and always took a problem-solving approach whenever complications arose. He was quick to respond to questions and provide advice throughout the whole process. And when he was not sure about something, he sought consultation and got back to me quickly with a response. Bill was also pleasant to interact with and always professional.

Great customer service, average rate/costs

I am a first time homebuyer, so this process was all new to me. Bill Givens of First Commonwealth Mortgage has decades of experience in this industry - and he shared his knowledge with me. He was a patient and walked me through the steps. I was also in a position where I really needed to close on my home in a very short time frame - just three weeks! Bill did everything in his power to help make this come to fruition. He was available when I needed him, even outside of business hours! On top of all this, I bought a home in Indiana, and I was living in Colorado -- so EVERYTHING had to be done virtually, which certainly doesn't make things any easier!

When it comes to customer service and the skills of my broker, I would give a rating of 5 stars. When it comes to the rate I got and the closing costs from this lender, I would give 3 stars (average).

Positive Experience

My experience with FCM was a good one. The lender kept us informed every step of the process and was able to get us to the closing table and into our new home.
