I get pretty protective when my client's welfare is concerned, and right now I'm frustrated with lenders/banks who fail to respond to questions that deserve answers. Come on, it's not a prayer, it's a question and a response is in order.
We're not talking short sale or bank-owned, this is a standard sale. My out of state buyer needs to make arrangement with movers to transport his belongings, and a close of escrow date sometime within the next week is too vague. His funds are in, loan documents are signed, loan is approved and now another review? Banks work in mysterious ways and it seems all time-lines are fluid.
Maybe I should not question the wisdom of the banking demi-gods, but total disregard for the scheduling necessary on behalf of their new customer is not increasing their goodwill, and heavens knows their public image could use a little spit and polish. As I tell my clients, it is not a buyer's market, it is not a seller's market, it is a lender's market and we set our clocks to their time.
Don't get me wrong, I work with some wonderful lenders, but some push me to the far edge of tolerance with their omniscient and omnipotent attitudes. We all have schedules and time-lines to meet, but more consideration for the new customer who will soon be sending a monthly check would be most appreciated. It's not a prayer, it's a question and a response is in order.
