Root Mortgage Review

Great communication, knowledgeable, helpful and professional. Walked me through every step of the process. I have already recommended them to friends.

Once the ball got rolling, the process was fast and easy.
Thank you Ross Foster!

I've worked with Root numerous times for mortgages and refinances. I highly recommend them for their integrity and service.

Great experience with Ross and everyone at Root Mortgage! They walked me through the entire home buying process with total transparency and support. They were super responsive and made me feel at ease from start to finish. Highly recommend!

Had a great experience with Root Mortgage while buying our first home. Juha Tuominen, our Mortgage Advisor was especially helpful and went above and beyond to walk us through each step of the process and what it meant. He always made us feel comfortable and patiently answered some of our (probably dumb) questions. Communication was top notch, and I would recommend anyone to reach out to Root for their mortgage needs!

Had such a great experience working with Riley at Root! We put in quite a few offers before we got one accepted, and he always reached out to the seller to introduce himself, and was so fast to get pre-approval letters written up when we decided that we wanted to put in an offer on a house immediately. Would definitely recommend working with him and his team!

Riley and the Root team were amazing to work with, they made the whole process easy abs stress free. We highly recommend using them for any of your mortgage needs!

By far the best loan experience we ve had. Riley Hayes was fantastic. Thank you!

Always a great experience with Root Mortgage! As a realtor, I can not recommend them enough! Great attention to detail and needs.

We have used Root Mortgage for refinancing. Clint and Greg are a pleasure to work with. They helped us get the best loan and rate for us. Thank you!

Robert and his team were extremely easy to work with, and I will definitely be referring him and his team to friends and family. They were knowledgeable and responsive, and I felt supported throughout the entire process. Overall, I had a great experience and highly recommend!

Ross is great. He takes the time to explain options and details, gives advice when asked, and really knows his stuff. We'll use him again.

Root mortgage is an excellent company to work with. Clint and his team did a great job helping my wife and I through our refi. I highly recommend them.

Love Root Mortgage, very professional and excellent staff. Highly recommend!

Clint Ehlers and Greg Pfleger were great to work with. They helped us realize our dream home where we plan to retire. They always made you feel like you could contact them anytime with a question or concern. Would highly recommend them.

I had the best experience with Root Mortgage. The refinance process was so fast and simple. Clint was excellent to work with. I would definitely recommend Root Mortgage

Explained everything and kept me calm during my first home buying experience. Communicative and efficient. Highly recommend. Got me a super low rate too and went out of their way to keep me on track for timely closing.

We are incredibly thankful to have worked with Ross and Erin at Root Mortgage. They were knowledgeable and professional. Great communicators. Very thorough. Responded to emails and calls quickly. Handled a crazy near disaster situation for us. Cannot thank you both enough. Highly recommend. I hope we don t move for 31 years but if we do we will use Root!

A Great experience from start to finish. Thanks to all members of the Root Mortgage team.

Scott and his team knocked it out of the park for us! They were very knowledgeable and their expertise made the purchasing of our home go smoothly.

Working with Eric and his team was flawless!! Communication, and his availability was always there, easy to talk to and whenever a question arose, he was there to give step by step explanation. Eric is professional and very warm person. Thank you Eric, although I found my forever home, I wouldn t give second thought to work with you again.

I have worked with Clint at Root Mortgage 2 times now. The first for the purchase of our home and second to refinance our loan. The team they gave are amazing. I would recommend them for all your loan needs.

Great to work with. Made it very easy to understand and know how our home loan worked. Your team Rocks, thank you Ross and Erin!!!

Juha is very knowledgeable, got us a great refi rate, and walked us through the entire process. Very fast to respond to emails. Enjoy working with him and team and would highly recommend.

Robert Day and Heather White made our home buying experience so easy and strss free. They are both extremely nice and friendly and eager to help out answering all questions. They both responded to emails and texts quickly. I will definitely be recommending Root Mortgage to anybody buying a house.

Clint was absolutely incredible. Extremely knowledgeable, patient, and great to work with.

10 stars if I could. Absolutely fantastic to work with!

Root Mortgage is a great business! They're more than just a business. They want to educate their clients on buying a home and go deeper. Meaning, they WANT to help you have a better control on your finances, all the while helping you understand and improve your credit.

Root mortgage, Dave Walz, and Greg Fleger were great to work with. Very professional, efficient, and they helped me to get an outstanding refinance rate at a great cost. Thank you!

Just finished up on a refi with Riley and Erin at Root Mortgage. They are amazing: helpful, thorough and easy to work with.

Root Mortgage was an excellent lender. They made the process transparent, smooth and easy!

Ross and Erin did a fantastic job with follow-up and follow-through on my mortgage! Ross in particular patiently answered all my questions in details and promptly. I highly recommend Root Mortgage.

Root was great! They provided clear instructions and let us know what to expect throughout the process. We started our purchase directly with a big bank, and became frustrated. With Root, everything happened like clockwork and we closed within our original timeframe.

I highly recommend Root Mortgage. We worked with Ross Foster and Erin Saunders. Ross was great to deal with and had excellent communication throughout the process. We felt he provided sound advice and advocated for us throughout the process. Erin was on top of all the paperwork and she was friendly and communicative. Overall, we had a great experience with the Root Mortgage team and we would use them again in the future.

Juha Tuominen is the absolute best! He listens and together with his team will do what it takes to meet your needs for your purchase or refi. Thank you, Juha!

I was telling a friend about how I was trying to refinance through my bank and how badly it was going. Not getting calls and emails returned and the whole thing had been dragging on for months. She suggested I try changing to Root Mortgage. I have been amazed at the difference. My emails are promptly answered and paperwork done quickly. I closed in a matter of weeks. I will totally be recommending them to my friends.

Everyone was quick and very responsive to my questions. It was a fast and seamless process and I am out of state. Very professional people.

Root is great at selling things they can not deliver on. Lots of hassle to find out that they were just saying whatever would keep us working with them. Very shady people.

My wife and I have had Clint Ehlers at Root Mortgage do several loans for us and also members of our family. My wife and I highly recommend Clint and Root Mortgage for all your home financing needs. Clint is very knowledgeable and he explains the best options for your particular situation. He walked us through the whole process and is always available to answer any question that may arise. Clint is very friendly and easy to work with. So if you are wanting a great group to work with for your next mortgage or refinance check out Root Mortgage and ask for Clint Ehlers.

The Root Mortgage team provided the financial services I needed to meet my housing requirement. When I had questions they were informed and attentive, quick to help me with a clear path forward. Happy with my new home, and rate, thanks.

Even though we purchased our home during the COVID-19 pandemic Root Mortgage made it as smooth as possible. They did everything in their power to speed things along even though other companies put a delay on things. Whenever we had a question they were an email away and responded same day. Helped us through buying our first home when we didn t know much about the process.

Great experience with Greg at Root. Highly recommend.

I recently brought my home through Root Mortgage, they are vey efficient and honest. I came to know about them from my Agent. Initially I had my doubts, and was skeptical however, working with Ross and Erin from Root Mortgage and my own market research gave me so much of confidence on their ability And honesty. Ross is one such person who will not sugar coat any details and is very straightforward on his approach. I was able to close the deal in less then 25 days and the best low rate market can offer.
I will Definitely recommend Root mortgage.
Thank you for your service.

We used Root Mortgage for our 1st home loan and our refinance. Both times were a great and easy experience. They really talked us through our options and I felt like they had our best interests in mind. They were reccomended to me by a friend and now I do the same.

Working with Ross at Root Mortgage was a great experience. Ross provided updates almost daily or as needed with what stage our loan was in and gave us a timeline of events. Ross also was very accessible for questions or concerns. With my work schedule, Ross and I could only connect at night time and Ross was accommodating with my odd availability. Erin, Ross assistant was easy to work with and helped with our documentation process. The whole process was surprisingly smooth. I would highly recommend Ross and Erin with Root Mortgage.

I ve worked with Ross and Erin at Root twice now and it s always a pleasure. They ve got a great crew there and will do all they can to make your experience a success.

The staff over at Root Mortgage made the home-buying process for a first-timer like me so smooth and stress-free. I would recommend them to anyone and everyone. For someone having little to no knowledge about the home-buying process, I came away, not only with a home, but a great understanding of how the process works and things to be aware of. Absolutely worth your while if you are just getting into the process.

My wife and I appreciated the sound advice we received. Ross covered all of the available loans to let use know pro's and con's of each, answered questions we had, and broke down the process required from start to finish. On top of that, he was readily available during odd hours and even while on vacation.

I would use Ross again and recommend him to others. Otherwise, I wouldn't write this review!

Ross was really great with explaining every step. Thank you Ross!

We re-fied with Root twice remotely and had a great experience both times. The team is super responsive, thoughtful and efficient and we really appreciated their help even as they were experiencing a super busy time. For our first re-fi we had some decisions to make and Scott gave us great advice and framing of the situation. We would continue to refi or get a new loan through them and have recommended them to multiple friends.

Excellent service! Will definitely work with them again. Thanks to the great teamwork!

What a wonderful team of professionals. They went above and beyond what I expected. Even putting together a approval letter late on a Saturday so we wouod be able to get ours in quick. Thanks guys!

Dave made it easy for us. He secured the lowest rate I know of, and helped us walk through delays during the negotiation with the seller.

Riley was introduced to me by a close friend and upon contacting Riley, it became evident very quickly of his knowledge in mortgage lending, responsiveness, and professionalism. The conversation was extremely straightforward and there was never "the pressure" to do a loan. Riley and his team worked quickly and delivered the results that were discussed from day one. From the online technology to review and sign documents, to the ability to execute according to our expectations, the experience working with Riley was superb. I highly recommend to anyone toying with, thinking or curious about refinancing or purchasing a home in this unique market to connect with Riley and his team.

Hands down the BEST experience possible. Root mortgage is the ONLY way to go when it comes to the industry. Scott and his staff will go above and beyond the norm! They will also educate you along the way to help you understand and make the best choices. Thank you again Root!

I ve had the pleasure of working with Riley at Root Mortgage for 2 refinances and a new home purchase. He s extremely professional, knowledgeable, and trustworthy. I d highly recommend his services.

Scott Kirkland was professional, efficient, and clear. Made the whole process super smooth for first time home buyers such as my wife and I. Would definitely recommend to family and friends. No cons to be given

I have used them twice now and both times I got an excellent loan and was treated with respect. The process is transparent and I never once felt like they had anyones interest in mind other than my own. I will continue to use them and will send the people I know to see them.

Ross and the team at Root Mortgage were amazing to work with. They were informative, prompt, thorough, and communicative from the beginning to the end of the process. Ross gave great advice, was never pushy, and worked hard to answer our multiple (and likely annoying!) questions. If this is your first buying experience or multiple, they will do a great job. I will definitely turn to them in the future should we ever refi or buy again.

If you want a mortgage advisor that will be dedicated beyond any other I d recommend Dave Walz!

Both Scott and Chad were very easy to work with. Scott explained everything about the process so that each step of the way we had the knowledge we needed to make the right decisions. I would recommend Root Mortgage to anyone looking to buy a house.

Heather and Robert made the mortgage loan process simple and they helped us to close on our dream home!

Your expertise, tenacity and communication are excellent and we cannot thank you enough!

Highly recommend!

Ashlyn and Tyler Sterling

Clint and the team at Root Mortgage delivered exceptional service to my wife and I as we refinanced our home. The personal care that Clint took to assure that all of our questions were answered was so refreshing in an industry that at times can just push you through as a transaction or overwhelm you with terminology and paperwork that's foreign. We had a tight timeline with a purchase out of state. He went out of his way to assure that we could meet our timeline. He made sure to be present at our signing to answer any final questions that we might have. If you want someone on your side during the purchase or refinance of a home, I would, without reservation, recommend Clint and Root Mortgage. They are professional, courtesy and responsive. Thanks Root Mortgage!

I recommend Root Mortgage to friends whenever possible! Their team is the best! ... very professional. We secured our initial house loan when we purchased a few years ago, then just secured a refinance to take advantage of lower interest rates. They have been quick to listen to our needs/desires, then cautious to proceed to find the best "fit" for us. I've been able to converse with Robert any day of the week, and even at odd hours, when necessary, via phone, text, or email. When a new opportunity arises in the future for us to use their mortgaging advising services, we will definitely use Root Mortgage again!

Ross did an outstanding job on our loan. He was very responsive and answered all of our questions and concerns promptly. The loan process was surprisingly smooth and without any hold ups. The only issue we had was the appraisal which took longer than we expected. We would definitively recommend him to anyone who is looking to get a loan.

Our financial adviser referred us to Ross Foster and we were THRILLED with our experience. Outstanding response times and amazing rates. He took the time to fully explain the loan process, which gave us a lot of confidence in his knowledge, and made us feel confident working with root. He fully explained how different rates impact our loan and closing costs, and helped us calculated our optimal numbers. Loan funded on time. Underwriting was smooth. Highly recommend this team!

This is the second time we have used Riley Patrick Hayes for our home buying needs. Like always, he is wonderful and easy to work with as is his whole team. The process is simple and Riley is able to answer all questions in a timely fashion.

Staff understood our needs and were very knowledgeable. All available options and information were discussed for our consideration. They were quick to respond to calls, emails or text communications. Our needs were met timely. We never felt rushed or pressured in any way. We were well informed every step of the way. Everyone involved was kind and personable. Definitely recommend.

Excellent service, friendly staff, best rate and fees, precise and quick.

Riley was amazing! He guided us through the process with solid information and took the time to explain all the details. Better yet, he coached us through getting our credit scores way up to get the best rates. Although there was a major shift in the market halfway through our process, Riley was patient and knowledgeable to watch for any dips and grabbed us a super low rate just in the nick of time , as rates quickly rose even before the close of that business day! We feel very fortunate to have had the pleasure of working with him are very pleased and would recommend Root Mortgage to anyone looking for a great home loan experience.

I have worked with Root Mortgage twice now. Once for a refi on our previous home and again for our new home purchase. Scott and his team are very knowledgable and friendly. They take time to educate you on all of the loan documents and processes. Everything was able to be done electronically and over the phone. I highly recommend Root Mortgage and continue to send my friends and family to them whenever they are looking to finance a new home or do a refi.

Thank you Root Mortgage!

Ross at Root Mortgage was amazing. He was thorough and honest, which helped us feel confident in our decisions. The process was easier than I expected and we will definitely refer friends here!

Scott and Chad are extremely helpful and always respond with fast solutions! I highly recommend Scott's team!

Ross and Erin are the best. Great to work with, fast and will be there for you through every step.
You can t ask for any better.

Scott and team always go the extra mile and truly care about their clients!

Ross and Erin at Root Mortgage are a phenomenal team. We purchased our first home in July and from the first phone call Ross was an incredible partner. He was eager and happy to answer all of our questions and guided us by creating a balance between our wishes and his stellar advice and council. The process from start to finish was clear and well laid out. Without fail, he and Erin responded to any inquiry within minutes. Erin did a fantastic job keeping our documentation well organized, answering questions and provided us a seamless close and funding. I would recommend this team many times over, in fact I already have. Our best wishes to all that venture down the home ownership path. Ross and Erin will take wonderful care of you and your home to be!!

Ross was an amazing mortgage officer. He explained every aspect of the lending process, types of loans, points, etc, to help us make an informed decision. He and his assistant Erin ensured we closed on time and without any problems. Ross was available to us and responded to questions and needs quickly. I plan to enlist the assistance of Ross in any future transactions. Thank you Ross and Erin.

We had a great experience working with Clint and the Root Mortgage team! They were very friendly, responsive, and helpful in guiding us through the mortgage process. We highly recommend working with them!

We appreciated the clear communication and smooth process!

Root Mortgage helped us buy our home when we moved to Portland from Colorado. They helped walk us through the different loan options, the payments between each potential home, and communicated clearly on the steps needed to finalize the purchase. Easy as pie.

Robert Day, and his fellow colleagues at Root Mortgage, have helped me twice now solve my mortgage and refinance needs, and both times they have been stellar to work with. From answering questions, responding to my needs quickly and finding me the best rates out there... five stars all the way. I would give them ten stars if I could. Highly recommended!

My husband and I worked with Dave as first time home buyers. He made the process easy and let us know what the next step was or if he needed more information. I highly recommend this team.

Everyone was easy to work with. They made the whole process transparent and helped us take advantage of the great rates and deals.

Absolutely the best experience. The simplicity of the process was so refreshing. Very fast turn around. We were ready to close before the people buying our house was ready and we put our offer in a week and a half after receiving our offer. This is an absolute testament to the strength of their operational team.
Additionally this firm exudes character ad trustworthiness.

Scott Kirkland was absolutely impressive, very knowledgeable, helpful, and got me an incredible pre-approval letter and amazing rate. He knew I was in the middle of a divorce, and there d be some extra steps or hoops to jump through for a loan to be approved, and he supported me through the entire process. His staff was very professional, timely and friendly. This was an incredible transaction! I highly recommend him. My realtor who has been in the industry 40 years said he knows what he s doing and is great at his job. I will always be grateful for his help as this market was extremely competitive and fast moving. He got it done!

They worked around the clock for us and I can't recommend them highly enough.

Honest, transparent and reliable. I've used Clint Ehlers for a purchase and 2 refinances. I recommend him to clients and friends with full confidence that he will get them the best loan for their individual circumstances.

Ross is very professional and easy to work with. He always has your best interest at heart. I have been fortunate to work with him. I appreciate his honesty. I highly recommend his and his company.

I seriously can't recommend Ross at Root Mortgage enough. He explains things very clearly, doesn't pressure you to do a thing, and is incredibly helpful, and overall, helped us find the best options for us! (We had contacted him once before and he told us it wouldn't be a good move for us, and the second time we reached out he ran the numbers and told us it was time!) I've recommended him to a dozen people already, and many of them have already used him too and are incredibly happy. If you're looking to save some cash with a refinance, Ross is your guy!

Yet another amazing experience with Roots! Dave is the best - always so helpful, timely and genuine. Our refinance went so smoothly and we are extremely grateful! Thank you, team!

Root Mortgage spells teamwork!! Chad, Reza, Alex, Julie & Scott are so committed to the process, product service and success of your loan you feel like you are their only customer. The most important part of being a great mortgage company is communication and execution. This Is where they earn all those stars. They are fast, honest and earnest. They believe and truly love what they do and it shows! I need to count on performance and they deliver!

Working with Scott and Chad at Root Mortgage was an absolute pleasure! They walked us through the home buying slash mortgage process and explained every step along the way. I would highly reccomend them to anyone looking for an honest, genuine, and customer focused mortgage company!

I have been very happy working with Robert and Heather. I have recently purchased a new home and, as in the past, I will only work with them! They make sure to communicate effectively throughout the entire loan process and found ways to save me money each time. I highly recommend Robert Day and Root mortgage!
