The company saw a small drop in employment levels following the 2008 financial crisis.
In the spring of 2008, Rock Holdings entered the reverse mortgage market with the acquisition of One Reverse Mortgage. The company also houses its employees in Downtown Detroit's First National Building, The Qube, Chrysler House, One Woodward Avenue, and 1001 Woodward, all owned by Quicken Loans' parent company, Rock Ventures. Since 2009, Quicken has leased office space in the Compuware building facing Campus Martius Park in Detroit. The initial move brought 1,700 employees to the city. Quicken Loans moved into its downtown headquarters in August 2010. The construction sites reserved for development by the agreement included the location of the former Statler Hotel on Grand Circus Park and the former Hudson's location. On November 12, 2007, Gilbert announced a development agreement with the city of Detroit to move the company headquarters downtown, consolidating suburban offices. Gilbert challenged this orthodoxy, however, by offering loan applications online that were reviewed by experts versed in the regulations of each region but who were located in a central headquarters.
Traditionally, the home mortgage business in America has been fragmented due to varying regulations in each state and locality. The company started to change course in the late 1990s, shifting from a traditional mortgage provider to an online-focused lender. In June 2002, two and a half years after selling the company, Dan Gilbert led a small group of private investors in purchasing the Quicken Loans subsidiary back from Intuit for $64M. (makers of QuickBooks, TurboTax, and Quicken) purchased Rock Financial Corp. In December 1999, a year and a half after the IPO, Intuit Inc. In May 1998, Gilbert took Rock Financial public, launching an IPO underwritten by Bear Stearns. Īs RFC grew so did the head count, reaching 50 employees in August 1991. In July 1987, the name of Rock Financial was changed to Rock Financial Corp. Quicken Loans, originally Rock Financial, was founded in 1985 by Dan Gilbert, Ron Berman, Lindsay Gross, and Gary Gilbert. The company closed more than $400 billion of mortgage volume across all 50 states from 2013 through 2017. Amrock and One Reverse Mortgage are also part of the Rocket Mortgage Family of Companies. Unlike other large mortgage lenders that depend on deposits, Rocket Mortgage relies on wholesale funding to make its loans and uses online applications rather than a branch system. (it is also the largest online retail mortgage lender). In January 2018, the company became the largest overall retail lender in the U.S. It is headquartered in the One Campus Martius building in the heart of the financial district of Downtown Detroit, Michigan. Rocket Mortgage, LLC (formerly known as Quicken Loans LLC) is a mortgage loan provider.
