About AAmes Home Loans


When you go to their website it gets redirected to Home Funds Direct. I do not know if AAmes just services their loans or if they own them. This is from that website:
"Home Funds Direct specializes in helping people with challenging financial situations find the perfect home loan. Do you need a mortgage but don't have perfect credit? Have you been turned down by another lender? Maybe your income is difficult to verify. Or perhaps you'd like to borrow up to 100% of your home's value. Well, you've come to the right place. Welcome!"

Checked Better Business Bureau: Yes

I am the President of a Condo Assoc. one of the units is in foreclosure and the plaintiff is Aaemes Home Loans but they a listed as the DBA. They are actually Accredited Home Lenders, Inc. a California Corporations successor by merger to Aaemes Funding Corporation which is doing business as D/B/A, Aames Home Loan.

Well.....Im glad I left Aames, before the company was bought out by another loser, who later on will be bought out, because of it's scandless ways.

My home was foreclosed in 2006, Aames is still reporting that the payment is LATE and not that the loan was foreclosed. It has been 20 years. Someone purchased the house almost immediately when I was out. What can I do

Sorry My current 1st mortgage company is under with "Countrywide home loans" not AAmes Home Loans same as 2nd loan company

starno starno starno starno star by Kim From Detroit, MI on February 04, 2008

Aames Financial is affiliated and in cahoots with other bogus companies (Ocwen Federal Bank, Deutsche Bank National Trust Co.), I recently received a tax assessment for a home in my name that I did not purchase. No one will give any explanation about the matter, just the run-around. I discourage anyone who plans on dealing with this company not to do so. I'm so confused!!!!

starno starno starno starno star by SHAMED X EMPLOYEE From Pacific Palisades, CA on November 21, 2007

COMPANIES LIKE AAMES AND AMERIQUEST, AND LENDINGTREE ARE CRAP! AAMES WORKED DIRECTLY WITH LENDINGTREE AND CONSPIRED TO PLACE CUSTOMERS IN HIGH FEE LOANS. FOR SOME REASON THE GOVERNMENT ALLOWED IT. AAMES, AMERIQUEST, LENDINGTREE AND HOMELOANCENTER ETC. ALL CONSPIRED TO PLACE CUSTOMERS IN HIGHFEE LOANS. BASED ON THE MORTGAGE FALLOUT, YOU CAN SEE HOW UNINFORMED MOST PEOPLE ARE TO THE MORTGAGE LOANS BUSINESS, AND YOU CAN SEE HOW MANY PEOPLE WERE TAKEN ADVANTAGE OF BY PREDATORY LENDERS BASED ON THE NUMBER OF SUBPRIME DELINQUINCIES. ALL THESE COMPANIES SHOULD BE INVESTIGATED AND THE CEO'S THROWN IN JAIL. IT'S FUNNY HOW THE "CORPORATE" LOGO SHIELDS THE EXECUTIVES FROM PROSECUTION FOR THEIR UNSCRUPULOUS MISDEEDS & BUSINESS PRACTICES. BASED ON MY WORKING FOR AAMES THEY WERE IN THE BUSINESS OF SHAFTING PEOPLE FOR AS MUCH MONEY AS THEY COULD GET, AND WHEN THE HEATS ON THEY CLOSE UP SHOP WITH THEIR MILLIONS IN THE BANK AND SKIP TOWN. THATS WHY I'M VOTING FOR OBAMA HE IS A CANDIDATE FOR THE PEOPLE, NOT JUST A CAREER POLITICIAN LIKE CLINTON & ROMNEY.

starno starno starno starno star by anonynmous from Irvine, CA From Inglewood, CA on November 07, 2007

I worked for this company over 6 years. This company was unfair to it's minority employee's, unfair to it's customer's, and cheated millions out of fair practices. Whatever link is popping up, don't do business with anyone associated with AAMES HOME LOAN, AAMES FINANCIAL, OR AAMES CORPORATE. IT'S ALL BULLCRAP. THE OWNER OF THE COMPANY CASHED IN HIS STOCK AND LEFT US ALL HANGING WITHOUT JOBS. F*&% AAMES AND ACCREDITED HOME LENDERS.

starno starno starno starno star by clauda From Lancaster, CA on October 31, 2007

why, you do this?? do not try to confuse people you are the same company, same numbers and same everything, you will pay for everybody that believe in you, i had trusted this company before, and that was a bad mistake, hope someone help us find somebody that really cares, why are you trying to do??

starno starno starno starno star by Anonymous From Altoona, PA on October 21, 2007

AAmes never sent payment books, never returned phone calls. At foreclosure was the only point of contact and still no response even though numerous certified letters were sent to AAmes by me. The return cards were never received back to me. This was done for 1 year till finally they want to foreclose. We used AAmes when we refinanced in 05, what a mistake that was. This company should be investigated for fraud and deceptive business practices. DO NOT USE THIS LENDER it also reports mortgage under various names so you really do not know who has the loan. AAmes is not one of the reporting entities on the credit report. INVESTIGATE THIS COMPANY

starstarstarstarstar by Tia From Moreno Valley, CA on October 16, 2007

When I worked there we ALL PRIDED ourselves in a job well done for the CUSTOMERS and kept our "bragging board" in eye distance. We were rewarded with sticky stars on that boards, d acknowledgment of good deeds in writing and public meetings, along with bonuses made a fabulous time at work as a TEAM. This was NATIONWIDE, We worked hard for our customers knowing they were more than just a file! We ALL went beyond the call of duty and helped each other carry the load for the sake of the customers. I worked daily with fees and we had no predatory lending. P.S. ToA na Montanez From Philadelphia - It is the title company who is responsible for removing liens. That is what title INSURANCE policies are for.....to insure the Lender, as well as the Customer, GOOD LUCK....

starno starno starno starno star by Anonymous From Orange, CA on October 05, 2007

Terrible company to do business and work with.On average they will charge you from 20k to 25k in fees to process a single loan.Please stay away from a fraudulent and unscrupulous financial organization.

I am attempting to purchase a home they own and we have not been able to reach them regarding a lien that has been placed against the property. The BBB rating is incorrect on this page. It is actually an F.

starno starno starno starno star by Marcia Hart, Queens, NY From Rosedale, NY on September 11, 2007

I kept hearing about AAmes home loan as the worst to deal with. I find that out for myself when I tried to make arrangements all I got was a smerk remark. You need to sell your house was the only suggestion I got from AAmes customer service. Awful set of people to deal with, non-professional..

starno starno starno starno star by Anonymous From Los Angeles, CA on August 14, 2007

I worked for AAmes Home Loans and yes, they ripped off most of their customers by force placing insurance at extremely high fees and pocketing some of that money. They are a terrible company and should be put out of business.
