How to Choose a Lender

HOW TO CHOOSE A LENDER

Because we successfully close so many homes each year, we really have experience with lenders. We expect: quality, honesty and ability to get things done for our clients, as well as offer the best rates. Our lenders will meet or beat any rate should have started the pre-approval process already. 

HOW TO SELECT A LENDER

We DO NOT suggest getting pre-approved with a Bank or Brick and Mortar, but with a private lender or Mortgage Broker. 

Here's why, Banks have HOURS! In order to win your offer in a competitive offer situation, I need a lender who is available and responsive at all hours! Ex: We find you a home at 6:30pm after work when you can look, the bank has pre approved you for $400,000, but we need to submit and offer tonight for $360,000.  I don't want a letter that says you are approved way over their asking price, I want one that says what we offered. I need to contact a lender who will write me this letter with our offer ASAP or we lose the deal or lose you money!

It's as simple as that, I want to save you money and win the home you love by knowing lenders that can help us at any hour.

We select our Preferred Lenders on 3 criterias:

• No Origination Fee- I believe it to be gouging my clients, while most banks or lenders won't tell you upfront they charge a 1-2% fee just for creating your loan.
• Competitive Rates- The authority and rank, to meet or beat any rate out there.
• Absolute Timely Closing- Through the years I've closed many deals, there is nothing more frustrating to a home-buyer than being ready to move, moving truck in the driveway notice given and a lender can't produce or close on time. I find this reflects on me and my sales team as well.  I never want you to feel frustrated or let down.  This is the #1 reason deals fall apart is lenders aren't reliable or shady.

First Time Homebuyer's Agent

New Home Buyers are extra special to me, but this one is especially memorable!  

This one is a special story to me, right after we locked in the home they loved, my client found out she urgent surgery needed! During the surgery they nicked a vein and major loss of blood. She was completely incapacitated. Our team of experts was able to assist her the entire way, seemlessly, and make sure she was able to move into their new home a week after she got out of Intensive Care. 
HUGE LOVE!
