ExcellentBased on 209 reviewsCloe Burford29 December 2023Logan was amazing every step of the way during our stressful process of buying our first home together in today’s market. He went above and beyond to make it work for us and we closed before the new year! We couldn’t have asked for a better outcome. %1000 recommend!Zak Mesich18 December 2023Logan Swan did a great job helping me with my mortgage. Took care of everything fast and efficiently.Ephorm Freeman25 November 2023We connected with Logan Swan when we moved to Pittsburgh last year and recently completed a mortgage transaction with him and his team last month. Logan provided best in class professional services, we were blown away with his service, 10/10 all the way. Logan was always available and quick to respond for any questions that came up during the process. Logan and his team had us confirm to close 10 days before our planned 30 day close which allowed us to move in early. If you’re looking for a mortgage in Pittsburgh, Logan Swan and his team from Federated Mortgage Corporation are where you need to be, 10/10!!!kylee rothwell21 November 2023We could not have asked for a better loan officer than Logan! From start to finish, he was always available to answer our questions and concerns. Logan provided consistent and timely updates so we were always informed on where we were in the process and what the next steps were. He is extremely knowledgeable, professional and kind! We will be recommending him to anyone looking for their next dream home!Corey Gilmore13 November 2023Thank you to Logan and Justin They did an excellent job of helping us with our loan. Very responsive, reassuring, and knowledgeable. My case was a little unique because of my self-employment. They were able to problem solve the requirements needed for approval. We were able to move up our closing date thanks to their diligence.Erica B2 November 2023Many thanks to Bill Jr. and the rest of the Federated Mortgage Corporation staff. Start to finish, Bill was available to answer questions and guide me through the process seamlessly. When it was time to visit the office, the rest of the staff was equally knowledgeable and efficient. I’d highly recommend their services.Philip T17 October 2023I worked with Jim Lestitian, so this review is heavily biased towards him and the service he provided to me. Federated Mortgage Corp. offered the lowest 30 year interest rate and reasonable closing costs of all 5 lenders, that I seriously cross shopped, for a mortgage during the summer of 2023. So as a business I am comfortable recommending their services. I most highly recommend Jim Lestitian as well. As a mortgage broker he was exceedingly nimble and amicable to working though a number of false starts, stops, and changes. Through the 3 months we worked together he was never pushy, always respectful of my time, and responded in a professional and prompt manner. The lending process itself never once jeopardized the timing or closing on my home. I am completely satisfied having worked with Jim.Tom Herrera7 October 2023As first-time homebuyers, we were incredibly thankful to have Justin Remp and Logan Swan from Federated Mortgage guiding us through the process. From start to finish, Justin and Logan skillfully outlined every step and expeditiously answered any questions that came up in crunch time. We especially appreciated their affability, industry knowledge, and hard work to find us the right lender at a good rate. It was a huge help to count on Team Remp leading the way, and the Federated platform made it simple to get paperwork completed efficiently.Matthew Doucet19 September 2023The team at Federated Mortgage is on top of everything you need—quick to respond, creative, and hard-working. Strongly recommend!
How Do I Know if I Qualify?
As a rule of thumb, it may be harder to qualify for fixed-rate loans than for adjustable rate loans. When interest rates are low, fixed-rate loans are generally not that much more expensive than adjustable-rate mortgages and may be a better deal in the long run, because you can lock in the rate for the life of your loan.

Rick was amazing! This was my first time buying a home so I was very anxious about the entire process. Rick was incredibly informative and patient with me, as I had PLENTYof questions. Truly, I thought this would have been a much more difficult process, but federated, and especially Rick, was incredibly organized and helpful. I never experienced any of the horror stories I’ve heard about home buying and would definitely go through federated for any other home I purchase.

I used Justin Remp. Very knowledgeable and honest. He even returned phone calls on the weekends when he was off work. Everything was explained fully and there were no surprises at closing. I would use Justin Remp again.

Working with Justin Remp at Federated Mortgage was absolutely the best experience we have had dealing with financial institutions for the financing and refinancing of our home. By far, Justin proved to be the easiest and friendliest loan officer representative we’ve had the privilege to work with. Justin was very responsive and, most importantly, patient with all the questions and concerns we had to qualify for the VA loan. He timely returned all calls and emails and was “on top of everything”. Again, we want to express our gratitude to Federated Mortgage and to Justin for the smooth and professional way our VA refinance was handled. In addition to the VA loan process, the closing was a breeze. Thanks again Justin .. You are the best!

Bob was beyond helpful before and during the purchase. He was always available (despite the time difference), and his office stayed on top of deadlines during escrow process, which made it all a smooth process!!

The entire process was streamlined and Rick Peluso patiently responded to all our queries and we had a lot of them as we were first time home buyers. Everything from pre-approval to closing was handled professionally and without any issues. Rick was very knowledgeable and always presented us with a bunch of options for different rates, different down payment amounts and explained what might work best for our situation.

Justin was able to direct me to and secure what I consider to be a low interest, 15 year loan. He answered all of my plethora of questions. It was very easy to see that Justin takes great interest in his customers and goes the extra mile. I would highly recommend him to anyone needing a loan.

Rick Peluso provided top notch advise and service to us. He was responsive, professional, and gave us expert guidance and support. He was able to lock in an excellent rate for us and made what can be a difficult process clear and easy. We will definitely go to him for our next mortgage.

At closing everything went as promised – zero surprises. The rate required using their closing services whose fees are about typical for the industry so that was no problem for me except that I could not use a friend in the business. The closing documents matched the GFE within USD3.00(three dollars) and the final figures were also in line with the Initial Fee Worksheet. I recommend Federated to anyone who is
looking for a mortgage in Pittsburgh and found that Federated Mortgage rates are among the most competitive.

GREAT EXPERIENCE!
Yes, I recommend this lender Mitchell was truly amazing to work with. In 3 weeks he had us ready to close! The sellers were not ready for 6 but it had nothing to do with us. I was concerned doing business with Federated Mortgage just because I had never heard of them but in the end it was so easy and I did get the BEST rate available!
