Despite what you may have heard, home loans are available…and interest rates are better than ever!
Submitted By: Patrick Davidson of Guild Mortgage Company – Lacey
Jamie and George were starting their new life together. Jaime already owned a home as an investment property and with present market conditions, she did not yet want to sell the home she presently lived in. George had previously owned a small business that fell victim to a stagnating economy; as such, George knew that there might be some obstacles to overcome in obtaining new home purchase financing. On the other hand, George was also a US military veteran and thus was eligible for VA insured financing.
Both Jamie and George had been homeowners before and thus they knew that the home loan process can feel somewhat intrusive at times. Income and assets must be documented, and some items on a credit report may need to be explained. Jamie knew Patrick Davidson at Guild Mortgage Company and knew that he and the loan processing and underwriting team would work overtime to make certain that all details were taken care of.
Jamie and George were pleased that the loan process was running quite smoothly when, as seems to happen with shocking frequency, a problem arose with the property that they were trying to purchase. The appraisal report had come back verifying that the purchase price that Jamie and George had agreed to was a fair one. However, the appraiser pointed out that this price was supportable only if the roof was replaced! The sellers had not counted on that expense and were not in a position to pay for a new roof. Fortunately, the sellers had already spent money on other improvements and the parties were able to reach an agreement that worked for everyone. Without that care, diligence, creativity and professionalism of Patrick Davidson and the team at Guild Mortgage Company, Jamie and George would not have been able to obtain their new home.
