The Good

  • Online Application
  • PNC Mobile App
  • Online Homebuyer Tools and Resources

Online Application

PNC makes it easy to apply for a mortgage by keeping the application process entirely online. With the online PNC mortgage application you can view rates, estimated monthly payments, and closing costs before applying. In addition, you can easily track your progress throughout the application and ensure that you never miss an important update.

While an online application makes it easier and faster to close on a home loan, you can be paired with a PNC loan officer who can answer your questions and guide you through the mortgage process, if needed.

PNC Mobile App

PNC offers both online banking and a mobile app making it easier to keep track of your banking if you are an existing customer. And you can also manage your mortgage online and through the app.

Online Homebuyer Tools and Resources

On its website, PNC provides a variety of homebuyer tools and resources, including mortgage calculators and basic resources for first-time homebuyers, including the following mortgage calculators:

  • Fixed Rate Payment Calculator
  • Home Affordability Calculator
  • Fixed vs. Adjustable Rate Calculator

These calculators can be particularly useful because PNC doesn't provide updated mortgage rates on its site. With the help of a calculator, you can see personalized rate estimates that can help you get an idea of what your monthly payment will be throughout your mortgage term.

The Bad

  • Undisclosed Interest Rate
  • Limited Website Information

Undisclosed Interest Rate

PNC has not disclosed mortgage interest rates on its corporate website. Consumers who would like to find out more must contact the company for further information.

Limited Website Information

PNC doesn't provide clear information on its website, including available loan types, credit score requirements, or fees. If you would like more information, you will likely need to contact a PNC Bank representative or speak with your loan officer if you have already started the PNC mortgage process.

The Bottom Line

PNC Bank offers mortgage purchase and refinance options. It sets itself apart from other mortgage lenders with its mobile app, allowing borrowers to more easily manage their mortgage and monthly payments. In addition, if you are an existing PNC customer, the mobile app allows you to easily manage all of your finances in one place.

Information is limited on the PNC website, so it is unclear exactly what loan types are available and what kind of mortgage rates you can expect. 

PNC mortgage reviews are currently limited, and so we're unable to provide an accurate recommendation of this company based on customer sentiment. But current reviews are primarily positive with 4.5 out of 5-star sentiment criteria ratings.

I had to jump through hoops to get a loan with PNC. They asked for the same information more than once. One of the guys I dealt with during the process was great but the other one was kinda a jerk. Their website is not user friendly and when I called with a question she did not give me an answer I understood.

The website is a little clunky but gives us all the information we need to keep tabs on our mortgage. Setting up auto payments can be tricky if too close to the payment date but other than that our experience has been good.
