Awesome app.

This app is amazing for potential homebuyers. Very informative and easy to navigate. Customer service is also very responsive.

$10 a month for nothing

Just go talk to a mortgage loan officer. It’s free. This is very surface. If you’re serious about buying a house this is a waste of time.

Don’t trust it!

So I’m in the process of purchasing a house and someone suggested I download this app to keep an eye on my mortgage scores. EVERY VALIDATION QUESTION DID NOT APPLY 🤣 they literally had no correct information for any of my accounts except my phone number. Then told me I was wrong! I don’t have many accounts so I’m positive on top off having a current copy of my credit report.

Wittle-Bittless91 oof, we're sorry to hear you had a poor experience. We understand that that can be frustrating. The verification step is an extra layer of security and the questions come directly from TransUnion, not PicketFund. They are generated based on the information you enter in the step prior (first/last name, DOB, social, etc) It is possible that some information was entered incorrectly on that step, or that there was a mistake on TransUnion's end. Again, we are very sorry to hear that you ran into this issue. We'd love to help more - you can email info@picketfund.com and our development team can investigate the issue. We hope to hear from you soon.

It’s ok

It’s honestly an Ok app. Only thing I don’t know is you can’t add a partner on here. I would be applying for a mortgage with them. So, I wanted DTI, and credit score info for me and him in my acct. but it doesn’t give you the option to see if jointly on the same acct. I believe he would have to make his own acct which makes the numbers and info given kind of inaccurate because they would be using both of our scores, and would need to calculate both of our DTI together and both of our incomes as well. Other than that it’s a solid app if your buying a house by yourself.

Though we do not offer that feature today, it is something we would love to add in the future. We wish you all the best in your home buying journey and hope that we can help you in some way down the road. Good luck!

Exactly what I have been looking for

Trying to buy a home was harder than I thought. PicketFund is making it easier so far.

It’s average

It’s an app that shows you the balance of a single linked bank account. I don’t need an app to do that. Overall, not a useful app.

Convenient way to track my house buying gaols

This is a pretty cool app for tracking my downpayment savings and credit score. Seems pretty new so I’m sure things will get more interesting. Would like to be able to link my checking account instead of just savings. Some other minor issues but has potential.

Response from developer

Hi JeansTheCat! (cool name 😎) Thank you for taking the time to tell us more about your experience. We're excited to announce that we'll be adding the ability for PicketFund customers to link multiple accounts (savings and checking) in the coming weeks. Stay tuned! Thanks again and please reach out to info@picketfund.com if there is anything else we can help with.

Helped me set a plan of action into place

Process was simple and intuitive. Took the abstract goal of buying a house and put it into a concrete plan of action. Looking forward to my dream home.
10/10 would recommend.

Response from developer

Wow, we're so happy you've enjoyed your experience! We're looking forward to you buying your dream home, too 😊! Keep in touch, and don't hesitate to reach out if you need help with anything.

Great idea and app

It’s about time that there’s an app focused on the homebuyer experience. Pretty smooth onboarding process, and the user dashboard is streamlined and simple to navigate.

Only negative is that Plaid didn’t allow me to choose between my bank accounts to link to (I have multiple savings accounts).

Response from developer

We're so glad you've enjoyed your experience with PicketFund and that you were able to get set up quickly! Excellent point regarding linking multiple savings accounts: We do plan on adding the ability for our customers to connect various savings accounts from different banks. Stay tuned! Please contact us if there is anything else we can help you with in your home buying journey.

Love it!!

Love the fact I can see all of my information in one spot wish they had a way to add a partner so you can see both of your information in one place.

Response from developer

Oh gosh, you're making us blush! 😊 We're so happy you've enjoyed your experience and greatly appreciate the suggestion for the ability to add your partner so that you can view both of your finances, considering you may be buying a home together. Great idea! As always, please never hesitate to reach out to our team if there is anything you may need. Now, keep saving and keep your eye on the prize. You got this!

Makes it easy

I love the fact that I can access my credit score for free and have a savings plan for my down payment. Can’t wait to buy our house!
