A Decade of Excellence: Rocket Mortgage Named #1 for Client Satisfaction in Mortgage Servicing by J.D. Power for the 10th Year

Published

on

Rocket earned a first place ranking in every category measured by the study

DETROIT, July 25, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Rocket Mortgage, the country’s largest retail mortgage lender and part of Rocket Companies (NYSE: RKT), was today ranked #1 in client satisfaction by J.D. Power in mortgage servicing. This is the 10th year the company has received the prestigious honor and the 22nd J.D. Power award Rocket Mortgage has earned in total, including 12 times being top ranked for mortgage origination.

In the past year, Rocket has significantly expanded its use of artificial intelligence (AI), building it into every aspect of the homeownership journey. Focusing on AI is already benefiting both Rocket’s servicing team and clients, resulting in first call resolutions of more than 60% and creating stronger relationships between the company and its clients.

Today’s recognition is particularly meaningful as it is based entirely on client feedback sourced by J.D. Power, who surveyed more than 11,000 American homeowners to determine the rankings. Along with #1 overall client satisfaction, Rocket earned the top spot in every category measured.

One of the company’s AI innovations, Rocket Logic – Synopsis, leverages machine learning and large language models to transcribe client calls, automatically capturing details, sentiment and client patterns, helping to create more meaningful conversations and solve client concerns faster. The tool is projected to save more than 45,000 hours per year by eliminating the need to complete the tedious tasks, freeing team members to concentrate on building relationships with Rocket’s serviced clients.

“At Rocket, we view mortgage servicing as an opportunity to forge lifelong relationships with our clients by delivering exceptional, hassle-free experiences,” said LaQuanda Sain, Executive Vice President of Servicing at Rocket Mortgage. “By supercharging our team with AI-powered tools and technology, we enable them to build genuine connections with our clients. This commitment to excellence is part of why Rocket Mortgage’s serviced clients return to the company for their next home loan three times as often as the industry average.”

To make the process as convenient as possible, homeowners can manage their loan through an easy-to-use, website or mobile app to seamlessly make their payments with only a few clicks. This intuitive option has resulted in 78% of Rocket clients becoming completely paperless compared to the industry average of 30%.

While the homebuying process takes around 30 days, a client could work with a mortgage servicer for decades over the life of several mortgages. In addition to collecting mortgage payments and paying taxes and insurance on its clients’ behalf, the servicer is also resolving any issues that may come up throughout the life of the loan – a responsibility Rocket Mortgage takes very seriously.

“After multiple mortgages with Rocket, I can confidently say that each team member I work with truly prioritizes my best interests,” said Ed Wood, a serviced client with Rocket Mortgage since 2017. “Rocket’s team has guided me through my homeownership journey with the expertise, empathy and speed that you expect from a company that is handling something as important as your home loan. The confidence I felt was reassuring when I purchased my next home with Rocket.”

As of March 30, 2024, Rocket Mortgage’s servicing portfolio totaled $511 billion of unpaid principal balance with 2.5 million loans serviced.

OCR Canada Rebrands to Levata

Published

on

By

TORONTO, Dec. 27, 2024 /CNW/ — OCR Canada Ltd., Canada’s leading solutions provider of automated identification data capture (AIDC) products, software, and services for businesses across industries and government organizations, is pleased to announce its rebrand to Levata as of January 1, 2025. This transition unites Canada’s operations with Levata’s global identity, streamlining the company’s messaging while honoring OCR Canada’s more than 40-year legacy of trusted service and expertise.

The name OCR, which originally stood for Optical Character Recognition, reflects a technology that no longer represents the company’s comprehensive offerings. Rebranding to Levata supports the broader strategic vision of uniting Levata across markets under one multinational brand to better communicate the full value Levata delivers to its customers.

“This rebrand is an exciting milestone for Canada,” said Tony Mastrangeli, Executive Vice President & GM of Canada. “While our name is changing, the exceptional service, expertise, and relationships our customers rely on remain the same. Levata will continue to empower businesses with tailored solutions, just as OCR Canada has for more than 40 years.”

The transition follows a successful history of growth in Canada, with OCR Canada joining Levata in 2014. Since then, the Canadian arm has expanded its expertise through strategic acquisitions and established itself as a leading provider of AIDC solutions across industries.

“This rebrand marks the next step in Levata’s long-term vision,” said Dan Nettesheim, CEO of Levata. “By uniting under a single, global identity, we are amplifying our global message that we enable our customers to elevate their potential. Today, we provide solutions beyond OCR and barcoding, we also offer leading technology and services for enterprise mobility, RFID, networking, IT infrastructure, and more to help customers succeed in a competitive and rapidly evolving market.”

To complement this transformation, Levata Canada will launch a French-enabled eCommerce platform in January 2025, further enhancing customer access and experience.
