Changing the email address associated with your Rocket Mortgage account can be necessary for several reasons. One common reason is the acquisition of a new email address due to personal preference or a shift in professional domains. Sometimes, you might want to change your email for security concerns, especially if you suspect your current email has been compromised. Keeping your email address updated helps in ensuring that you receive important notifications, updates about your mortgage, and any promotional offers.
Preparing for the Email Change
Before you attempt to change your email address, ensure you have access to both the current and new email accounts. Make sure you can log into your Rocket Mortgage account without any issues. If you are facing difficulties, consider resetting your password before proceeding. It's advisable to note down any important communications or settings that are associated with your existing email address, as you might need to refer to them during the transition.
