Lender Reputation

Overall Rating: 4.4 / 5 (Excellent)

Zillow does a great job of educating consumers about FHA loans and referring them to FHA lenders. Its list of lenders includes both large traditional banks and smaller mortgage companies. There isn't much information about Zillow's reputation as a mortgage marketplace, but the absence of that data may indicate that people who use the service have no complaints about it. The loan qualifications and specifications for each borrower will vary depending on the lenders they choose. In sum, Zillow isn't a provider of FHA loans itself but is an excellent resource for consumer education and for connecting prospective homebuyers to FHA loans.

Loan Specifics - 4.5 / 5

Since Zillow is a mortgage marketplace, it does not set the qualifications or specifics of the FHA loans offered by the lenders on its website. For this information, consumers are advised to check with the lenders individually.

Zillow Customer Experience

Customer Experience - 4.5 / 5

Zillow's website contains a wealth of information about FHA loans presented in consumer-friendly, easy-to-navigate formats. It includes an FHA loan marketplace that connects homebuyers to FHA lenders. Zillow does not require the submission of personally identifiable information for customers to browse and compare mortgage rates. Though customer experience will vary depending on which lender they select, users will find Zillow's FHA information resources and loan referral system are among the best in the business.

Zillow Lender Reputation

Lender Reputation - 4.5 / 5

Although Zillow has an A+ rating with the BBB, it has a goodly number of negative reviews and BBB complaints. That is not unusual for a company Zillow's size. Most complaints concern Zillow's real estate listings and the difficulty consumers have in contacting the company. Few, if any, involve the company's FHA mortgage marketplace. Similarly, although the company scores well on TrustPilot, none of the reviews there concern the mortgage marketplace. In the absence of any solid evaluations of Zillow's mortgage marketplace, consumers may infer that most people who use it are reasonably satisfied with how it works.
