Reputation
Mr. Cooper is recognized as one of the largest U.S. mortgage servicers but has faced criticism for past regulatory violations, including a $91 million CFPB settlement in 2020 over foreclosure mishandling and payment issues. A 2023 cyber-attack exposed customer data, impacting trust. Professionals note its scale and tech investments as strengths post-Rocket acquisition.
