Key Issues That Will Get Early Attention
1
Try Conventional
With the way we're set up it's easy to check Traditional and Specialty programs simultaneously. If we can save you money we will.
2
Identify Income
What we count is valid deposits. It's best to send it in to the underwritter and have them confirm so 100% confident in the information and you can move forward confidently.
3
Analyze Credit
Aside from the typical qualification, we're looking for errors, innacuracies and rapid re-score opportunities to optimize your credit score so we can find the best terms.
4
Discuss Mortgage Strategy
If you qualify for a conventional loan it means you paid a lot more in taxes. We'll discuss what you would have to do to qualify for conventional financing so can prepare for a future refinance if it makes sense to do so.
