When buyers start the mortgage pre approval process, lenders often run the file through Desktop Underwriter (DU), an automated underwriting system used to evaluate loan eligibility. A DU Approval means the system has reviewed income, assets, credit score, and debt ratios and determined the buyer meets the guidelines for financing. This is the result buyers want because it confirms they are eligible to move forward toward loan approval and buying a home with confidence. Buyers who LEARN how DU works are better prepared for the home buying process and fewer surprises.A DU Refer, on the other hand, does not mean the buyer is denied. In many cases, it simply signals a glitch in the system or missing, incorrect, or outdated information. This could include mismatched income data, an error on ...

Are you a first time home buyer, looking for a better interest rate than what is being offered from traditional mortgage companies? For some builders in Arizona, they have been able to secure amazing interest rates due to the volume of products they offer.Recently, I was able to negotiate a rate just under 6% for my Marine Corps Veteran and his new bride on a home priced under $350k. This was a 4 bedroom home, with 2 bathrooms and just under 1,900 square feet, with a 2 car garage. There are more opportunities out there for not only first time home buyers but investors and second home owners as well, reach out today to set up a meeting as soon as possible before prices and rates increase.
