There sales mortgage rep was very helpful. The follow through with the service department never allowed my calls to get through. The automated emails never came as they said they would. So far we have not been happy with the company as a whole.

Reliance First Capital offers a digital application process, although it will work with borrowers who prefer paper, too.
How to apply. You can start an application via the Reliance website. From there, you can complete the application digitally using the web portal, where you can upload documents digitally. If you prefer paper, though, that’s fine, too. The loan rate is typically locked in when you submit an “intent to proceed” with your application.
Disclosure process. You can review disclosure documents through Reliance First Capital’s secure web portal or on paper, depending on your personal preference.
Submitting loan for approval. Reliance First Capital will provide you with a checklist of the documents you need to upload. Once you have submitted all your required loan documents, the loan is submitted to underwriting for approval. This is typically done within hours of submitting the paperwork. If an appraisal is required, Reliance First Capital will contact an appraisal company, which will then get in contact with you and schedule the appraisal and collect the appraisal fee.
Final approval. After it receives the appraisal, Reliance First Capital will work with you to secure any other documentation requested by the underwriters, at which point your loan will be submitted for final approval.
Closing. Reliance First Capital will work with you to determine a time and place for closing that works for you and your schedule.
Reliance assigns you a licensed mortgage analyst, who is your main point of contact throughout the mortgage process. You will also have an assigned loan processor, who will stay with you throughout the application process. They will communicate with you through the web portal or via email or phone, depending on your personal preference.
