It's a hard fact but although lenders may be friendly, they are not your friend. This doesn't make them bad; it just means that they - like you - are engaging in business, not social relations. Though they will often decide in your favor on a borderline case if you have a long-term working relationship, this is not charity, but an intelligent business judgment. They have good reason to believe you will be able to repay the loan at a profit to them.That last sentence is key to understanding - and avoids much frustration with - lenders. They need assurance that the loan will be repaid and they need some reasonable expectation they will make a profit. A lender will try to fulfill those two criteria the same way anyone would - by looking at past history and current facts. Past history means... 12/03/2009

Every year I attend an annual Christmas party where a golf-themed gift exchange takes place.  In preparation for this event, I purchased a beautiful Santa from Stein Mart.  This Santa was dressed to the nines in his golfing togs and he had his clubs ready for the first tee.  I stored Santa in the closet, wrapped in tissue and secure in his shopping bag. Or so I thought. Off to work I went the next day, happy to have that gift checked off my shopping list.  The day went great, I accomplished so much at work.  I went home knowing that my kitties, Tiger and Phil, would be greeting me at the front door.  Sweet.  I opened my front door.  There was Tiger, looking a little smug.  And there was Phil  SANTA, laying at Tiger's side.  Santa had obviously been through quite a struggle with Tiger.

1. Don't Get "Pre-Qualified!If you're looking to get the very best house you're capable of getting for the least amount of money you'd like to spend in Kingwood Texas? Next, be sure you are in the optimal position from which to negotiate. Price is only one bargaining chip in the negotiations, and not necessarily the most important one. Often other terms, such as the strength of the buyer or the length of escrow, are critical to a seller. In years past, we always recommended that buyers get "pre-qualified" by a lender. This means that you spend a few minutes on the phone with a lender who asks you a few questions. Based on the answers, the lender pronounces you "pre-qualified" and issues a certificate that you can show to a seller. When dealing with certificates that hold no value, selle... 11/28/2009
