From the time I entered the info  to the time that Quicken contacted me couldn't have been more than 10 minutes. Everything else went quickly also. I think it took us a total of 3 weeks from application to closing and we were very happy with the results. Other loan companies contacted us after we had decided to go with quicken and tried to talk us out of using quicken but we are very glad we did not listen to them. I also really liked the online feature of being able to track my loan status. It was very reassuring to know where in the process we were.
