How Bankrate scored AmeriSave Mortgage Corporation
Affordability: 3.4 stars
AmeriSave Mortgage offers several low-down-payment loans and participates with HFA programs. However, it doesn’t share personalized rates on its website, so it’s hard to compare costs upfront.

The company does advertise sample rates which are significantly below average, but to qualify, you’ll need a 720 credit score and a 40 percent down payment.
- Closing costs: Among other closing costs, AmeriSave charges a $995 underwriting fee and a $500 fee to lock your rate.
Availability: 5 stars
AmeriSave Mortgage works with qualified borrowers across the U.S. on a wide range of loan products.
- Home loans offered: AmeriSave offers several mortgage types, including conventional, FHA, VA and USDA loans, along with options to refinance your existing mortgage.
