U.S. News & World Report Debuts 2024 Money Awards
Monday, April 15, 2024
The inaugural awards address the fluctuating economy by featuring an editors' choice award for beating changing rates.
WASHINGTON, April 8, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- U.S. News & World Report, the global authority in rankings and consumer advice, today announced its inaugural Money Awards, with winners across 38 categories.
Rocket Mortgage secured this year's 2024 Editors' Choice Award for Best Mortgage Lender for Changing Rates, earning high scores for eligibility and customer service.
According to a March 2024 U.S. News survey, mortgage rates are top of mind with homebuyers, with 67% saying that they're waiting for rates to fall before buying a home this year.
"Over the last year, mortgage rates soared above 7% and have only recently fallen below that level. So, it's important to find a flexible mortgage lender that can ride out this season of influx," said Erika Giovanetti, loans expert and reporter at U.S. News. "Rocket Mortgage offers a variety of loan options, including an extended rate lock program with a float-down option and customizable loan terms, making it a good choice for navigating oscillating interest rates."
This year, U.S. News combined its Credit Card Awards with its Banking, Investing Platforms and Lender Awards to form one Money Awards program.
"As the general cost of living continues to increase, wages remain stagnant for many consumers," said Giovanetti. "The 2024 Money Awards not only recognize institutions and products that are exceptional, but also provide consumers with informed insights on financial institutions that can best support their unique needs and personal finance-related goals."
