“Preparation Will Go a Long Way”

 

 

Thank you for getting back to me, the city value is around 130,000 and we owe roughly 114,000. Our agent believes the house won't be on the market very long with all of the updates, once we finish our kitchen then we will be putting it on the market. We want to make sure that all items that were on our joint credit report are all showing as paid on time. If you would recommend pulling them I trust your judgement. We are hoping to be able to get started very soon. In advance, thank you for all your help.

 

I did a mortgage for these folks a few years ago and now they want to purchase a larger home as their family is expanding. I recommended they meet with their Realtor to make sure of the value and any work that needs to be done before the home is put on the market.

 

I had an opportunity to review their credit and all is good. I got them their pre-qualification letter so they will begin their home search and at the same time get their current home on the market.
