Wow, big topic. Lender choice is VERY important when purchasing a home as there are some REALLY bad lenders out there and we frequently cringe when we see who a new client has decided to partner up with for their lending. Below we have listed what your lender should do for you . We can’t tell you how frquently we see a home purchase nearly go south because the lender didn’t do his homework, didn’t accurately reflect the numbers, or didn’t turn in the file to underwriting correctly. If you have questions or concerns about your lender in the first week you DO NOT want to find out just before closing they did not have your best interest in mind. In most cases we see it coming and will suggest another lender in backup. We have a list of lenders that we know and trust.
(Realtors included), there are some that give the bunch a bad name; avoid ending up with a problematic lender by asking them some basic questions.
