In A Service Industry...Don't Take Your Business For Granted...

 You know we have to go the extra mile these days...and all those small things add up...which is why I must say...QUICK, HONEST, EFFICIENT SERVICE IS WHAT IS WARRANTED AND NEEDED IN TODAYS REAL ESTATE MARKET....that includes MORTGAGE FOLKS ... Gone are the days when you can just "cherry pick" lets say...and so any real buyer should be treated like GOLD...case in point...

 

Mortgage Chic took a week and 10 excuses to get me back an updated pre-approval, I called, I emailed, I explained I needed it or the Negotiator would close the file...A DARN WEEK? I happen to know...they take 2 minutes, and the only change I needed? THE DATE...While my buyer did not understand the process..I must admit...

I told him, if we go Under Contract on this house, pick someone else in the bank, Business should not be taken for granted and we don't live in a 5 million person metropolis that every person in the city would be going to her for appointments and pre-approvals...PRE-APPROVALS TAKE MINUTES TO WRITE!!!  THE TURN AROUND TIME WAS wrong, rude, and I hope she has 1 less customer to do a loan for...If I have Anything to Say About It!!!

I couldn't agree more Melissa.  I am in the mortgage industry locally and honestly, this is disheartening to read.  We have had major changes in our industry and most of the loan officers left should be the cream of the crop.  Pre-approvals and minor changes should take but a second of our time and be the top priority with a qualified buyer.  There are some great deals out there but you have to move fast to take advantage of the them.  With a mortgage chic that is slow to react, that could mean your buyer looses a great deal and unfortunately, might even reflect poorly on you.  Even though it would not be your fault, everyone involved seems to take the blame.  I hope you and your clients are treated with more respect and service going forward.
