How Do I Find A Good Mortgage Lender In Albuquerque

Many first time home buyers and even seasoned home buyers may ask “How do I find a good mortgage lender in Albuquerque?”  It’s a great question with a multitude of possible answers.  You might search online, read the home seller magazines, let your fingers do the walking or just call one from those billboards hanging around town.  I’m not necessarily applauding any of these techniques.

Listen to your Realtor when selecting a lenderFinding the best loan officer for you and your specific needs is very important and should not be taken lightly.   One of the best ways to find a good mortgage lender is by speaking with your Realtor®.  Your Realtor® has first hand knowledge of area lenders and their practices. A Realtor® sees both sides of a transaction regardless of the who they represent and gets a good overview of just how a lender is responding to their client, to the REALTOR(s) and the title company.  Are they taking care of business in a timely fashion or waiting to the last minute to pull a hat trick.  I have seen far too many transaction where the lender's actions have created unnecessary obstacles,  were laxidaisy in preparation or just offered horrible customer service.  As a borrower you want a lender who is professional, on task, proactive and offers a personal approach to their clients and the other pertinent parties involved in the transaction.

The process of obtaining financing in today’s economic environment can be the most stressful and difficult part of the home buying experience.  Be prepared and do your homework before hiring the OnlineMortgageGuy.com, speak to your REALTOR® or at least ask friends or family for their referral. It never hurts to speak to more than one not only to compare fees and rates but to be sure you’re comfortable and feel connected with that individual.

Remember if you're asking How do I find a mortgage lender?,  be sure to speak to a Realtor®  

If you are considering the purchase or refinance of an Albuquerque, Rio Rancho or Central New Mexico home call me, John McCormack,  Realtor®  I would welcome the opportunity to provide you the names of my preferred and seasoned mortgage officers.

Realtor referrals are probably the best. If you have a referral of someone who just used that lender in completing a mortgage that is good too.

This is such good advice John. Lenders come and go. Experienced real estate agents always have 2-3 go to people who have fairfax county real estate agents Jan and Steve Bachmanbeen recommended and come through for their clients. A sharp lender can either make or save a transaction.

John ~ Good advice. Having a Lender that knows the Town is critical, IMO. They are the ones that live in the area and know it as well. BTW, I like Rebeccas response... lol...   :)

John - I almost dread when they come pre-loaded if I don't know the person/lender they are using. It can be a nightmare with the wrong one.

John,

This is excellent advice.  The online guys have the best of intentions, but they don't know the ins and outs in a particular marketplace.  I remember a guy telling me he lends all over CA,, and doen't have an office in Los Angeles.  How does he know how the market REALLY is in LA when he is in Nevada?  Talk to your realtor is exactly the answer.  A

Such good advice for all borrowers out there. They should remember the old adage, if it is too good to be true, when blindly picking the low "come on" interest rates often posted on the web. Just tell them how many horror stories that happen when the borrowers is at the title company signing closing docs only to find the interest rate is higher than what they were initially quoted. cheers cvc

John - Great post on how to find a good mortgage lender in Albuquerque, New Mexico.  Since the big financial melt down many buyers, and current owners that want to get a new loan, or refinance don't know who to call.  If you need the names of some good Alberquerque mortgage lenders, call John McCormack, he is a full service REALTOR!

A good reputable lender who can make things happen is rare similar to a good solid and knowledgeable Realtor. Some fo it is luck if you find one you can get good referrals for the other. If you get a bad one then fasten seatbelts the ride is going to get bumpy
