    Thank you for sharing your feedback with us. We greatly appreciate the time you've taken to outline your concerns, and we value the opportunity to address them.We have made several attempts to reach out to you via email and phone to resolve this matter. However, we understand that you have requested no further contact, which we completely respect. In one of our emails, we explained that we do not offer credit life and disability products and believe there may have been a misunderstanding regarding the nature of these solicitations and who is actually contacting ****** we mentioned, when a mortgage is recorded, it becomes part of the public record. This can lead to unsolicited communications by third parties, which we do not control or share information for. To help reduce these solicitations, we recommend visiting ***********************, a free service that can assist in minimizing unwanted offers.If you have any further questions or would like to discuss this in more detail, please dont hesitate to reach out to our corporate office or respond to any of the emails sent by our management team. Were here to help!Warm regards,Barrett Financial Group

    . My experience with Barrett Financial Group and loan agent ****** ******* was terrible. From the start of the process, she was unreachable and unprofessional. My realtor and I had to contact her supervisor several times because she was unreachable. I was unable to close on the property because the buyer and his agent refused to do any business with the loan agent due to her being unreachable and setting closing dates that were not possible due to her negligence with my file. The loan agent set closing dates knowing that not all of the documents had been properly filed. As a result of the loan agent's negligence, I was unable to close on the property and l also lost my ******* money. The entire experience with Barrett Financial was costly and horrible, and they have terrible customer service. I lost money, time, and a good investment doing business with Barrett Financial Group.

    Completely miserable experience. We provided all of our information well ahead of time, only for our new estimate to come out completely inaccurate the day we needed our closing disclosure in order for everything to stay on track. Horrible communication, showed up with multiple duplicate credit charges and excluding multiple sources of income without any warning. And then just completely condescending and gaslighty when we pointed out they messed everything up.

    Dear BBB, ****** *******, and *****************************,

    Thank you for bringing this matter to our attention. We have conducted a thorough review of your loan file, including interviews with all team members involved, as well as a comprehensive investigation into the investor's handling of the process.

    Our investigation revealed that while much of the issue stemmed from actions at the investor level, there were also multiple stakeholders and third parties engaged in efforts to secure approval and closure of your loan application. Throughout this process, our systems operate under strict automation to ensure compliance with federal lending regulations. Changes made by team members can trigger updated Closing Disclosures (CDs), which are subsequently corrected upon reconciliation of invoices with the lender and title company. We acknowledge that this process can lead to confusion when clients receive multiple versions of corrected CDs.

    We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience or confusion caused during your loan process, which involved multiple restructuring efforts and specialized underwriting requests aimed at achieving approval. Please rest assured that we have made every effort to expedite the approval process to ensure a positive experience, notwithstanding challenges encountered during underwriting.

    Should you have any further questions or wish to discuss this matter further, please do not hesitate to contact our corporate office at ************.

    ****************,I hope this message finds you well. We do not have an employee with that name. We are a mortgage company and do not have loans for $7.200. I do feel this may be a scam as your bank instructed you but never involved Barrett Financial Group or its employees as we never had an interaction with you. You may contact your bank to see if there is any option to recover your funds. I will have to refer you back to your bank who can review your options to recover funds or help report it to the appropriate authorities.

    Dear *******,A search of our client database revealed no *************************, an email search from your review also resulted in no results. We would need to verify you are our client to research this situation. Please reach out to our corporate office at ************ and request to speak with our RVP/Sales Manager so we can verify you are a client and assist you. We look forward to helping you.

    Buyer Beware. I went in for a simple HELOC and was approved, went through the entire underwriting process only to be told just days before funding that the way our income was categorized between my wife and I was not going to work. We work together and some years the income goes to her and sometimes to me. *****************, the loan originator, could have explained this to me beforehand and would have been an easy fix on my end, but his lack of knowledge of the process and poor communication cost me a lot of time and a hard inquiry on my credit report. Then to make matters worse, I was informed of all this by the manager *********************** who was insulting and rude. I would urge anybody reading this to stay clear of Barrett Financial. I have been in the real estate business for 20 years and haven't come across a lending institution as incompetent as Barrett.

    Beware!! If i could give zero stars i would. They are a brokerage firm so they are the middle man.Our lender **** was horrible he did not fight to close our deal in a timely manner. His poor judgment and lack of loan knowledge made our journey 10times worse. He fail to escalate issues when they occurred with underwriting, messed up our final closing paperwork, almost cost us our house and NEVER had the answers to any our we had. Our realtor had to jump in a navigate the situation i wouldnt recommend this company to ANY of my friend or family.. My best advice would be to stay away from Barrett financial brokerage they are lazy and will cost you your home due to broken promises and not closing on time.
