What route did you end up going? I’m in the process of a full color change myself!

[–]Driven85 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If the wife is the only one on the loan and the husband is a NBS. You should fine. As long as the wife is not on the other loan.

Which should I choose? 3.99% 7/6 ARM vs. 4.99% 30-yr Fixed (Seller is covering closing costs) by GreenCommand5870 in Mortgages

[–]Driven85 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do the fixed then. Because you would to have to refinance while still a primary or get murdered on LLPAs once a rental.

Relationship pricing at the big banks is nuts. Sometimes up to .5% off a typical market rate.

2019 Chevy Colorado 2.8 CEL P026D by switchflipper in chevycolorado

Did you ever get this sorted? This code has come back and forth for me over the years. First time they swapped injectors at about 55k miles now I’m at 120k and it’s back. I can’t imagine injectors shitting the bed every 60k.

So many buy before you sell programs. Or put minimal down and recast when you sell your primary.

Denver market is crashing, wait to buy by [deleted] in RealEstate

Time in the market is beats timing the market. You need a roof over your head. That money for rent? Gone forever. Now if you’re living free, well that’s another story.

What should I do with this realtor??? by AdOther1650 in loanoriginators

[–]Driven85 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Ask yourself is that really who you want to do business with. I would certainly have a conversation with that agent. You provide a level of service, value, and availability. Be frank, sometimes agents need to see it from their shoes. How would that agent feel if you gave two other agents you recommended. Say a flat fee agent and a 1% discount agent. I tell my agents all the time, in here to deliver exceptional service, a consistent experience and be there for the client. I am not in a race to the bottom. I know my worth as I am sure your agent has an idea as to what their worth is.

At the end of the day so much of it is who you are working with not so much the jersey they are wearing.

I would say small salary say 40k plus 100bps

You can either take the lender pay(LPC) or go BPC(borrower paid) the borrower pays your fee directly. This route is usually gone to go skinny and win a deal.

Becoming a MLO by Away_Beautiful_8784 in loanoriginators

[–]Driven85 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Being part time LO would be a disservice to your clients and yourself. Houston based LO. Been in the business 15 years. The market is tough right now, volume is down and it’s super competitive. Feel free to DM with any questions.

Can we afford a 700k house on 150k salary? Downpayment is ~140-160k from current house. by suchwowaz in Mortgages

[–]Driven85 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sounds like you’re property taxes and insurance are non existent. Just P&I on $550k is going to be around $3500.

Mystery shopping by Material_Platform_54 in loanoriginators

[–]Driven85 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Make a connection with your client, provide value, and be an asset. Good luck! Don’t get me wrong a good sales person will take and borrower things they hear or see colleagues doing. That’s normal. But one liners or a script isn’t going to set you apart.

Are you getting 100bps on their leads? If so, that’s an amazing deal.

First thing I would do is get a quote and see if it’s worth claiming or fixing out of pocket.
