I am always motivated by the Statue of Liberty. I aspire to be a Utah Loan Officer who invites anyone from any background, any economical plight, and any type of disability into my office. Its an opportunity to begin a relationship. Its an opportunity to learn how the rich live. And how the poor live. And how people from other cultures live. Its a place to listen to someone's story and build an exchange of information. Its an opportunity to enrich my life and the other person's life. Oh, did I forget? Yes, its also a place to Originate a Loan.
Recently I had an interesting loan prospect from someone who forgot to tell me he had a FORECLOSURE and an IRS JUDGMENT for $40K. His credit rating, surprisingly enough, was decent. I wanted to give him better news about loan possibilities than I could. Anyone have any ideas????
The very next evening, at a dinner party, a good friend of mine asked if I had any avenues for a Super Jumbo Construction Loan on a spec house. As the discussion continued, I realized it was maybe possible, but certainly with more challenges than meets the eye. I'd like to hear of anyone who has access to 4-5 million dollar loans for constructing a spec home.
I have met the most amazing people. Every loan application I take, has a story behind it. And I have never taken a loan application from someone who was just "boring" or "regular." Its an interesting road we walk down, isn't it?
I market, I blog, I stay visible, I blog, I volunteer, I blog, I build on relationships, I blog, I truly believe in keeping a WELCOMING OPEN DOOR POLICY to anyone in my circle of influence. .
Oh did I mention I BLOG? FOR THOSE OF YOU WHO AREN'T KEEPING YOUR DOOR OPEN TO SERIOUS BLOGGING ADVANTAGES, here's my recent experience. I'm one of those who blogged but was skeptical, until I was at my favorite look-it-up site www.google.com one day last week searching for Park City Business Women's Network, and Lo and Behold, there I was listed in the first position, www.city-data.com/profiles/2234. Then I was curious, and searched for "Park City Utah Mortgages" and was listed at the bottom of the first page, www.activerain.com/koko
So market, stay open to new opportunities, Seriously Blog and let me know what you do with the really tough loans that come your way!
