My clients cherish effective communication, and this is a cornerstone of my business. I enjoy learning about new technology, an appreciation of sci-fi and fantasy genre films & TV, and an insatiable interest in nearly all facets of football.

paying 1 point

How am I paid? I’m make one percent of the loan amount. The fee is known by many names: discount point, origination fee, origination charge, and more. Ultimately, it is the fee charged for my compensation, and clients can choose to pay it in a two ways… As part of closing costs or taking a higher rate. I ask clients how long they plan to stay so I can calculate variables for them. Robert wanted to lower his payment. Since he had enough for a down payment and closing costs, it was an easy decision to pay the 1 point fee to keep the rate lower. This allows Robert to say "yes" when his kids ask to go to McDonalds. I’m effective helping people understand their options. You see your neighbor sprucing up their home with new landscaping. His wife wants to be moved by Haverty's and not a moving company. When is the last time they bought new furniture.

What sets me apart as a loan officer is my background in underwriting allowing me to think like an underwriter. I equip my clients with the knowledge they need to proceed confidently knowing their loan will close smoothly once they secure a contract.

Development

A client came to me after not hearing from his current loan officer. The loan officer went silent, and he needed a cash out refinance for remodeling on his home. While we were talking on the phone, he received an email saying the loan was denied. He never heard from the loan officer.

Why was he denied?

He was self-employed and his personal tax returns showed too little income. I asked the client if his previous loan officer reviewed his business returns. He said those were never requested. I got both the personal and business returns. I could see why the personal returns looked bad as very little income was shown on the Schedule E from the business returns. When I looked into the business returns, I found ways to make the loan work. The business took large depreciation and depletion deductions, which can be added back to the qualifying income. He also showed a carry forward loss, which again, can be added back. Once I added back the income, he qualified for the loan, was able to get the cash out of his home, and completed the renovation to the home.

This is why it is so important to get business and personal returns for self employed buyers.
