The Good

  • Several Loan Options
  • Competitive Closing Costs
  • Mobile App

Several Loan Options

U.S. Bank offers a number of different loan options, including fixed rate mortgages, adjusted rate mortgages, FHA loans, VA loans, jumbo loans, and construction loans. The company also offers loans for investment and rental properties. Because there are such a wide variety of loans available, U.S. Bank borrowers have the opportunity to choose a loan that will work best for their needs.

Competitive Closing Costs

U.S. Bank charges closing costs of 2 to 5 percent of the total purchase price, which is competitive within the industry.

Mobile App

U.S. Bank provides its borrowers with a mobile app that is compatible with iOS, Android, and Windows devices. Customers can use this app to track and manage their home loan from their smartphone or tablet.

The Bad

  • Interest Rates
  • Lack of Information

Interest Rates

As of December 2016, for a borrower with excellent credit purchasing a $250,000 home with a $50,000 down payment and a 30-year fixed rate loan from U.S. Bank, the interest rate comes out to be 4.25 percent, which is slightly higher than industry average.

Lack of Information

U.S Bank has not disclosed minimum credit score requirements on its corporate website. Additionally, it is unclear if the company frequently communicates with its borrowers throughout the home loan process.

The Bottom Line

U.S. Bank offers several loan options, competitive closing costs, and a mobile app. However, U.S. Bank's interest rates are slightly higher than industry average and there are some important pieces of information not disclosed on the company's website.

The manager Daniel at US Bank Tempe (Baseline and McClintock) is not honest and has retaliated against me by withdrawing money from my account. He is engaging in questionable and suspicious activities with my account, prompting me to close it today. I urge the authorities to investigate his retaliatory actions against customers. He retaliates against customers if they reveal his dishonest dealings with their accounts. I'm uncertain what to say, but my sincere advice is: do not open an account there and closely monitor your finances. Daniel, the manager, he is not honest and retaliates when a customer voices a complaint.

Overall I find U.S. Bank to be a great company to bank with. I especially appreciate their tenacity in stopping fraudulent attempts to enter your account in there tracks before a withdrawal occurs. I like having my mortgage with the same company that I bank with because the transactions are seamless and transparent. U.S. Bank's app is easy to use. I do not like their lobbies being closed during this time.

I’ve been with U S Bank for several years and will honestly give them a 5 star rating. I had major financial difficulties a few years ago and found them to be professional yet compassionate, while not treating me like a number. Their service is always prompt and their feedback is very much appreciated.

I have had a mortgage with U.S. Bank in the past and they are easy to work with. They have quick and easy underwriting that is easy to understand. They gave me a great rate and I could refinance with little or no fees. Made the process easy and people were great to work with.

Having only weekends off work I got familiar with US Bank because they were the only bank with an open lobby on Saturday mornings. It was a great benefit at first. As the years went by they had policy change after policy change and they started closing on weekends. Eventually there rates and policy changes began to become more of a burden than I wanted. I couldn't keep up with US Bank and have had a negative opinion ever since.

My mortgage officer was responsive and handheld me well through the process. Would have loved a better rate but in the given circumstances, loved the transparency and the handholding with no big surprises.

Great bank with wonderful service and a sterling reputation that has not been tarnished like some of the other banks out there. Home loans are one of their best products.
