For Realtors

A Mortgage Partner Who Helps You Get Buyers to Closing

Fast answers, experienced problem-solving and direct access when your client or transaction needs more than a generic pre-approval letter.

Send the scenario before you assume the answer is no.

Realtors do not need another lender sending rate memes. You need someone who can answer the phone, review a buyer, explain the tradeoffs and help solve problems before they become closing problems.

Pre-Approval

Stronger buyer conversations

Review payment, cash-to-close, documentation and likely underwriting issues before the offer.

Second Opinion

Tough scenario?

A decline or bad answer from one lender may not be the last word when another program or wholesale lender fits.

Renovation

Expand the inventory

Help buyers consider homes that need eligible repairs, updates or layout changes.

Realtor resources

What the buyer and agent should understand when value misses contract price.
Renovation financing: adding bedrooms
