Got A “TUDE”?................. To The Bottom of The PILE Your FILE!

 

Ever wondered why you May Have had A problem trying to push A deal through? Could it possibly be you?

 

Believe me I know first hand how keeping a cool head can get you what you want. As a general contractor and developer I've had to deal with counter clerks, inspectors and myriad bureaucrats for decades. These minimum wagers don't have a clue nor do they care. So if you show up with a "TUDE" to the bottom of the PILE your. FILE!

Now as a Real Estate Broker I’m finding that the big "FAT CAT BANKERS” are no different in that they too use low wager clerks whose only goal from the time they clock in at 8am is to clock out at 5pm. They have absolutely no business acumen or common sense in many cases. So if you show up with a "TUDE"..............to the bottom of the PILE your FILE!

If you want your deal to go as smoothly as is possible with the “FAT CAT BANKERS” you need to play by their rules and it’s still very challenging to say the least. You need to paint on that smile and hope they don’t see the tension in your cheeks as you grit your teeth.

It’s their ballgame all the way across the goal line and it’s play by their rules. Losing your cool during any part of a transaction will only put your FILE on the bottom of the PILE. Sure you can go around or over someone’s head and it will often work. But it can backfire on you as well.

If you push too hard or try to go around or over too many heads you will end up like the “Little Boy Who Cried Wolf” and soon lose your credibility, end up rubbing someone the wrong way and to the bottom of the PILE  your FILE!

Bottom line? It’s best to keep a cool “TUDE” at all times. Don’t get a chip on your shoulder, paint a smile on your face and grin and bear it remembering that the low wagers working for these “FAT CAT BANKERS”, don’t really like you and there’s nothing you can do about but keep your “TUDE”

I’ve found that working with a good “MORTGAGE BROKER” is by far the most effective and efficient utilization of my clients and my time and at the end of the day there’s very little if any difference in the overall loan costs.  We don’t need to deal with these “FAT CAT BANKERS” and until they get their acts together..............to the bottom of the PILE  their FILE!

Sometimes it doesnt' just go to "the bottom of the pile, your file."  Sometimes it's straight to the trash.  "What Mr. Broker, I'm sorry, I'm missing paperwork for that file.  You will need to resubmit that before we can move foward."  Have a great Thanksgiving! :-) Kasey

You're absolutely right Kasey. I should have added some prose about "NO GETTING AROUND THE ROUND FILE". That's a very PRECIOUS BUNDLE OF JOY you're holding. You have a wonderful THANKSGIVING as well and be well.

I hate big banks!  Stick to local mortgage brokers.  When you find a good one stick with him.
