“Do You Ever Really Know?”

Yes, just like realtors, their a great lenders and not so great lenders.  I guess it depends more on the person.

Service beyond expectations is a very good way to assure business growth.

Joe Petrowsky We rarely hear these quetions any longer, perhaps due to the fact we deal with so few first time home buyers. All questions that remind me of my early days in RE

Joe you are a PRO and that is why you continue to get so many referrals.

Good morning Joe Petrowsky,

You are right..there is plenty of business to go around. Those that know you understand you will take good care of the or their referrals. So many myths about mortgage brokers!!

Joe, some of my clients ask for a broker versus a big bank, or even a credit union that would give more personalized service.

Yes, many don't understand the process. Education to consumers is still needed...

Good morning Joe. You are smart to learn from the no-go's too. Actually you are just smart period.

Hi Joe --- you're right there's plenty of business to go around ---- as far as the reasons why(or why not) we are chosen --- I'm sure that list would be quite long.

Joe Petrowsky You are right, there is plenty of business to go around, but people still need to know the facts.

Big Banks aren't their friends, but a mortgage broker could be.

I believe in referrals from people I know and trust.

I believe in Joe Petrowsky and highly recommend him to others.

And part of it is simply education needed by the client! I love that you learn from those who don't choose you...it shows me your continual push to improve and grow. 

I would deal with you, because I've come to know you and the way you do business. You know your business inside and out and look out for the best interest of people...even if it means you won't be doing a mortgage for them. 

I talk with people who say they go to their bank because they have a relationship with that bank. The only thing that tells me is banks are very sneaky about public relations because there is NO relationship with a bank anymore. Plus, they just don't know any better. Far as I'm concerned, a mortgage broker is just about always, hands down, your best bet for a mortgage (except for maybe very limited types of loans like those once offered for teachers, for example).

Joe it is obvious you guys were the root behind the whole mortgage crisis, and that you charge a boat load of points :)

Amazing how people who should know better come up with this stuff.

It is evident that people that really know you want to do business with you. Quality matters.

Interesting analogy Joe, I guess as long as they keep calling all is well.

Two separate people I know started out going to their bank. There seemed to be always one more form to fill out. Both got digusted and went somewhere else.

Many people have miscomceptions...the sameis true when they think they are savng money selling on their own without a Realtor...oh not.

I obviously work at a bank Joe Petrowsky , so we are on different sides of the fence.   I think it all comes from the housing crash when bankers were pointing at brokers and brokers were pointing at bankers as the cause.   The reality is bad people doing bad things caused it.   Good mortgage people, like you and I, are what has saved the industry and brought it back.
