Half the battle of purchasing a property is getting the Financing in order. From knowing what to do prior to shopping to how to get thru the process sometimes the difference is all in the lender.
Many lenders offer the same products and the fees etc are pretty similar. While some specialty properties are only financed by specific lenders so having a good idea of what you are interested in is sometimes going to depend on which lender we would recommend for you.
As not all lenders finance vacant land, manufactured homes, or Horse Facility properties.
When You Finish That Pre-Qual You Are Going To Know What Type Of Loan You Are Going To Purchase A Property With. You Are Going To Know How Much Down Payment You Need. You Are Also Going To Have A Good Idea Of Closing Costs And Whether We Need To Wrap Them Into Your Purchase Or If You Are Paying Cash For Them. And You Are Going To Have A Pretty Good Idea Of The Time Frame That It Is Going To Take You To Complete The Loan Process. Those Are All Things That Make Your Offer Stronger Or Weaker When We Are Home Shopping.
The Key Is With That Information In Hand, You And I Can Then Have A Real Conversation About Your Buying Power And Create A Strategy For Getting You The Home That Fits Your Needs.
To Hit Our Preferred Lender Lists: I Like To Work With Banks And Lenders That Are Honest! And I Don’t Just Mean Honest In Their Day To Day World. I Mean Honest With You The Consumer When You Go In To Borrow Money. A Lot Of Lenders Just Like Real Estate Agents Want To Tell You What You Want To Hear. We All Love To Hear Sure I Can Do That For You Or Sure We Can Get That Price For You. But The Honest Truth Is Sometimes They Can’t.
I Do Use A Lot More Lenders Than Those That Are Listed And Have Had Some Good Luck With Some And Some Not So Good Luck With Others. But I Like To Know If You Take One Of Mine That If They Can’t Do It They Just Tell You!
It Is Usually The Quirky Property, The Person That Is On The Edge Of Qualifying, Or Has A Unique Circumstance Where We Hit The Problems. And I Would Tell You Just For Your Information If One Lender Tells You No Sometimes it is Just Because They Can’t Offer A Certain Product Or The Borrower Or The Property Does Not Fit Into The Certain Size Box That They Have To Package A Loan Into. Since Most Banks Sell Their Loans Some Play It Safer Than Others On What They Package Up.
So be sure to Reach out to us before you give up as quite often there is a way! May not always be pretty but we try to think outside the box and help you come up with solutions.

Another Local Lender That Has All Of The Regular Options And A Few Options That Some Other Lenders Do Not Have. One Being Some Good Options For Condos That Do Not Fall Into Every Other Lender’s Box. They Also Have Some Land Loan Options For Vacant Land. And I Believe They Also Have A Manufactured Home On Rented Lot Product As Well. As Long As All Of The Other Regular Options.
They Are A Local Lender That Works With A Lot Of The Builders. Great For Construction Loans And All Other Typical Home Loan Products. They Do Some Land Loans, And They Have Done Some Specialty Products For Me In The Past. Large Horse Facilities That Don’t Fall Into A Typical Package For The Average Lender.
