Mortgage Thoughts from Ken…

One of the mortgage guys I work with not only has it on the ball… but he does a pretty good job of writing about it…

Here are three recent posts from Ken that people getting mortgages… or thinking about it… should read:

A real pre-qualification can take as little as a couple of hours and a seasoned loan professional can easily guide you through the process. Anyone who gives you a pre-qualification over the phone without having seen any evidence to prove what you have said is giving you a decision based on credit and payment history with your statements only. This type of pre-qualification is what gives loan officers a bad name.

When Should You Get Pre-Approved For A Purchase Loan?

There are different levels of approval with virtually every mortgage application to loan process and agents we really need you to do your best accept them even if you don’t understand them. Otherwise you’re going to continue driving the loan officer (me 🙂 nuts and forcing the weaker ones to lie to you or avoid you. Let me help you not contribute to their delinquency by briefly explaining some of the levels of loan approval and addressing how I handle them individually.

Pre-Approval, Approval, Conditional, Cleared – What the ____?!

Almost every loan application has some similar needs. If the agent knows what these are and can help prep the client to get these together quickly and accurately then the agent and the loan officer can start out by standing on the same side of the mud puddle and pulling the same direction on the rope.

The time is getting late for those that wish to take advantage of the Tax Credit for First Time Home Buyers, but for those that are going to hit the marks, or for others that might be in their first home, here is a pretty cool site that I ran across…

First Home Experience

The company that put the site up is American Home Shield.  They are a home warranty company… keep that in mind as you surf the site.  There is still some good information, and some contests that might net you a few freebies…

If you haven’t already bought a home, and want to get it done before November 30th… the clock is ticking.  Better call me right away…

Ford is pushing the envelope…

Have you heard about Fusion 41?  Ford is grabbing a handful of social media and leveraging it to promote the 2010 Ford Fusion.

I’ll give you the link to check out the contest.  It is pretty cool.  Go buy a 2010 Fusion, grab a few friends and have some fun.  BTW, I’ll be happy to be on a team if you have the car…

Google Waving…

I just got my Google Wave invite.  I have watched a few of the videos, and I am going to have to give this thing a rip.  Combining text, chat, video, audio and a bunch of things I haven’t even thought of yet… with email… seems pretty cool.
