pre qualification: What color is your service? - 05/18/07 07:12 PM
This last month has been a great month for me and my business. The reason being is that I have had multiple opportunities to engineer custom financing packages based on specific borrower needs. To me this is the hallmark of providing great service if you're in the mortgage business. What do I mean by this? Not all 30 year loans are the same. Not all loan features mean the same to every borrower. For example, a pre-payment penalty may be undesirable for a borrower flipping a condo, but ideal for reducing monthly payment for someone who intends to be in the

pre qualification: When payment matters: mortgage buydown programs - 05/15/07 01:12 PM

pre qualification: Pre-qual vs. pre-approval - know the difference! - 04/03/07 02:11 PM
I run Mortgage Education classes in the Phoenix area for real estate agents. Newer agents in my class usually ask me the difference between a pre-qual and a pre-approval. I recently saw this post by Randy L. Prothero and I was going to comment on it before I realized I really want to address this question in detail on this forum. Pre-qualification is when the loan officer takes the basic asset, income and debt informationn and determines how much of a loan the borrower qualifies for.
