Get the Best Sacramento Mortgage Lender By Finding the Right Agent

Elizabeth, I prefer when buyers ask for a lender referral too.    The lender can always blow up the deal, and would like a seasoned lender to do my deals!

It's rare anymore that I meet a buyer that doesn't have their financing in line. I think they've been reading more about the need for pre-approvals. But there are those that put the cart before the horse, and then it's time to educate.

Good mortgage loan officers are indeed found by hooking up with good real estate agents.  We know who can close a deal and not cause additional headache.  I had one loan officer so bad she wouldn't call if she didn't have good news, meanwhile it was a 203K streamline loan.  So when things went haywire, she disappeared.  I never used her again.  Communication is first and foremost in everything we do.  

I am convinced if there is going to be a problem with a transaction, it will usually come from the lender realm.  Experienced agents, usually know reliably good lenders. I have seen more sales unravel when buyers choose lenders.  This is especially true if they've seen some advertized low interest rate somewhere.  Just because a rate is promoted initially, doesn't mean that lender will deliver when it is time to close.
