Be very aware of your pipelines and ensure that the lender that is underwriting your file is able to underwrite the file in a timely manner that will meet the deadline…
What should you do?
- Ensure all documents needed or outstanding are expedited and forwarded to your lender immediately
- Find out if the Loan Officer is lender or a broker and with what company. Depending what and whom, this can very likely delay the loan.
- Work conduscively with your agent, lender, title company and all other parties to the transaction
- DO NOT ARGUE OR GET FRUSTRATED, JUST GET WHATEVER IS REQUESTED OF YOU TO THE RESPONSIBLE PARTY!
- Ask questions as to all stages of the transaction and notify all the parties so everyone is in sync with the process
Example:
- Has the appraisal been ordered?
- Is the lender going to submit their bank approval on the short sale on time?
- Are all the parties going to be in town in order to sign quickly?
- Have all the verifications been ordered and/or recieved?
- Has the title company ordered and forwarded the “CORRECT” information to the lender?
- Etc..
The point is, is to be on point and work diligently.
We are closing deals within 10-15 days and this may very well be an opportunity to ensure the client or your loan to close in a timely manner.
