If it weren't for Tidewater, we may not have been able to buy our current home. They will work their asses off to find you a loan and help you throughout your entire home buying process. I loved the office and how welcoming they all were. Our agent was the sweetest woman and was very informative. I though the process was going to be long and horrific, but she had us out of there within a half hour. They were referred to us from USAA, so I am not quite positive who all they work with, but if you are ever referred to them, give them a whirl. They certainly helped us out and made the process all the more easier, and I love my cozy new home :) read more

Tidewater Home Funding - Warm welcome! - Mortgage Lenders Near Me - Chesapeake, Virginia

Hearing everything in recent years about how much of a nightmare buying a house can be, I was really apprehensive about how the process would go. Am I ever glad that our Realtor referred us to Tidewater Home Funding. From the first call with our loan officer to get preapproved, we were treated like gold. The process of meeting in person to sign all of the initial loan application paperwork went so smoothly and I felt so reassured about what would happen next and what to expect. Like Nikki's photo suggests, I walked in to a sign on the desk personally welcoming me. I was kept informed throughout the entire process and was never left wondering what was happening at any given point in time. I tried to be really proactive and do my homework about any piece of documentation possible that might be required. Between that and our LO's dilligence, I never had to go back after that first meeting. The day we looked at the house we wanted, our agent suggested a closing date of January 28th and Tidwater Home Funding ensured we met that date. I couldn't believe how the entire thing went off without a single hitch or the constant back and forth that I've heard so many other people describe. I would absolutely recommend THF to anyone considering buying a home. I couldn't be happier with the process and of course, the outcome...our first home. read more

Easy to use, delightful people to work with. With Covid closing down so many places we were shocked at how much we could accomplish over the phone and online to be preapproved to buy a house. read more

We financed our home with THF two years ago at a phenomenal interest rate and returned recently to refinance at an even better one (as in, it will never be lower)! Friendly, prompt service... and even though they're by the book, they make it just as easy as they can to realize your goals! The customized signs on your way into the office are an unnecessary BUT PERFECT compliment to such a great hometown lender and wine at closing... SOLD! :) read more

Thank you for your time and have a wonderful day. read more

This is an update to the review I posted on 3/1/16 which was a one star review. The company contacted me shortly after I posted the review and after hearing their explanation I decided to meet with them to continue the loan process. Overall they did a great job. Everyone I worked was knowledgeable and efficient. They made the paperwork easy and the loan terms were better than I expected. I give Tidewater Finding a lot of credit for following up on my initial review and then doing an excellent job on my loan. read more

Tidewater Home Funding helped make our home buying experience a cinch! They were quick to respond and willing to answer ANY questions...even the ones we asked more than once! They are very detailed oriented and by the book. Highly recommend. read more

We secured a home mortgage here and we are first-time homebuyers. The initial visit had us feeling confident we went with a hometown, local company. However, in the end we DID get our house but the customer service lacked. Yes, there are dozens and dozens of homes to close, but I felt we were just "another" loan. Even more so, I felt like a bother with the constant questions and update requests I called or emailed to seek out. Sorry for being a first-time homebuyer, never done this process before!! I won't make this lengthy, but there were things that were said that wasn't done. In addition, the company could up their customer service skills even if this is the #1000 mortgage you've closed. read more
