January 21st at the Greater Kalamazoo Association of Realtors, come check out our lender panel discussion. This is a great opportunity for real estate agents to learn more about TRID, recent FHA changes, and more. Breakfast is at 8:30 am followed by a 9:00 am program.
Did your mortgage lender suddenly go radio silent, request the same bank statement for the fourth time, or drop a last-minute loan denial right before your scheduled closing date?
Yesterday, a panicked real estate agent called my office from Portage. Their buyer had been under contract for three weeks on a home near Milwood. The closing date sat just nine days away.
Out of nowhere, the buyer’s out-of-state call-center lender issued a denial letter. The call-center underwriter miscalculated self-employment write-offs, panicked over an unpermitted porch repair on the appraisal, and threw the entire transaction into the trash can.
