Over this past month, I've received a number of new loans. I love the easy slam dunk loans where someone with perfect credit, excellent income and a good down payment comes in, but it doesn't always work out that way.
Just this past month...
I have received 4 referrals whom have been denied by a number of different lenders. The issue? Bad credit. Not horrible, but bad enough, that as it stands at the moment they can't get approved for a mortgage. We're able to help. Just this past wee, we've received approvals for individuals who we've helped pick up their credit to the point that they are now under contract with a 100% loan approval.
The Biggest Misnomer....
People often hear a no from another lender and believe that their answer is final. The other issue is when consumers think that they can or should fix their credit on their own. For example long standing medical collections are often paid off by consumers. That will often times worsen a consumer's credit scores. Don't walk this project alone. Get someone knowledgable. Most realtors don't understand how credit is determined. Most lenders don't. Frankly, it's difficult.
Get someone who's an expert in credit to help you and no matter what, don't throw away your hope! Help is right around the corner.
