Dominion Financial

Let me preface this review by saying that I have been doing everything possible to rectify this issue directly with Dominion for almost an entire year. At this point, I am at the end of my rope and the best I can do is warn against doing business with Dominion Financial Services. From the beginning of my dealings with this company, it has been one mistake after another. First, I established a monthly payment greater than the amount of my loan, intending for the difference to go to principal. For three months, only the amount for the loan was deducted. In the third month, this payment was deducted twice. Not only was the incorrect amount being deducted (no money was being added to my principal), but I was also unable to determine what was being deducted, when and why. I was able to get a hold of one of the agents, henceforth referred to as Agent A, who, after some back and forth, succeeded in correcting the mistake, retroactively crediting my principal with what it would have been had Dominion taken my payments as instructed to begin with.After this, and without my consent, Dominion suddenly transferred my loan to another lender. While this in itself was an inconvenience (given that I had already gone through so much trouble to correct Dominion's mistake), it only got worse. Dominion's initial disbursement to the new lender did not show the changes that Agent A had made to rectify their initial mistake. Over several months, I tried contacting Dominion dozens of times via email and phone call, but there was no accountability on their behalf. I was given the run around at every juncture. My requests to speak to upper management were consistently deferred.Months later, when someone (Agent B) finally got back to me, things did not improve. Without my knowledge, Dominion had sent a refund (to an old bank account) for the extra money I had authorized Agent A to deduct to make up for the difference in principal due to their incorrect deductions months prior. To summarize, Dominion had: neglected to take the correct amount for principal, adjusted the error, taken additional money to correct mistakes in withdrawing, then returned that extra money to an account no longer in use and without notification. This meant that the new lender had not received the adjustments to my principal, resulting in a loss of approximately $2,000 on my most valuable asset, as evidenced by the amortization table Dominion provided. Agent B directly acknowledged the fault of Dominion but did not take accountability for the mismanagement or correct the issue. The only action Agent B took was to offer me a Venmo payment for what he decided was my financial loss: $21 of lost interest.Again, I requested to speak to upper management. The director of Dominion FInancial Services replied, offering to Venmo me $30 and misrepresenting some facts about my account, especially with regards to the financial loss I incurred due to Dominion’s myriad mistakes. Given the tone of the email, I had my lawyer take over all communications with Dominion. Since then, I have had trouble with my current lender due to errors in Dominion's initial disbursement of my escrow account and insurance payments they had withheld.I have been managing properties for years now and I have never encountered such difficulty communicating with a lender, not to mention their utter lack of accountability and the low value they place on customer satisfaction. Needless to say, if you're considering doing business with Dominion Financial Services: stay away. They make mistakes, the customer pays.

I have worked with private lenders before and have always paid interest based on the funds drawn. Be careful of doing business with this company. I didn’t make a single draw and my interest only payment jumped about $500 more each month. Definitely will be the last time I use this company for any and all my lending needs. I regret ever making the decision to use seek funding through them. Just be careful what you are getting into and read every singleLine.

I received a letter from Wade Susini, full of serious errors about who owns what property and what is or is not a rental. It seems to me, they use a data broker (which is not supposed to be a legitimate use of these unreliable scrapers). My impression is they are untrustworthy.

Wade did a refinance for me on a rental property that I had a hard money loan on. The process was very streamlined. Limited docs needed. He would always respond to my emails/phone calls when I had a question. Very professional and will be using him again.

Dominion promised that my commercial loan would be based on LTV and income coverage, as all commercial loans are. We are paying commercial rates, but then, after expending $575, we were asked to sign documents that require us to provide a wide variety of documents including tax returns, personal financial information, and "...any other documents requested by Dominion or anyone Dominion sells the loan too..."They deceived me, they deceived buyers. When questioned on multiple occasions, the only response was "...we have used this form for over 10 years and don't want to pay to change it...". VERY deceptive practices...
