Watermark Home Loans 100 Spectrum Center Dr Ste 150, Irvine, CA 92618-4964 DRE License Number 01523306 NMLS ID: 1838 Regan Hagestad: NMLS 57351 Matthew Disalvo NMLS 1416809 RECENT LOAN SUCCESS STORY: CHALLENGE: One of our clients had been looking at homes for over a year but with such low inventory they had not been able to find the perfect home. A few weeks ago we received a phone call that the perfect house just hit the market but they'd heard there was already an all cash offer submitted. While our clients were very well qualified, their loan had been fully underwritten and they had done everything the right way, there was still concern that they would be at a disadvantage compared to the all-cash offer. This was their dream home and they wanted to know if there was anything they could do in order to put their best foot forward with the sellers. SOLUTION: After speaking with their realtor who is part of our partnership program I found out that the listing agent was also part of our partnership program. We have been partners with the listing agent for over 10 years and he knows that we close on time and deliver on what we promise. I spoke with our clients and they decided to shorten the close of escrow date to 17 days and they worked with their real estate agent to come up with what they felt was a strong offer price. As the sellers agent was reviewing offers he contact us asking if we could really close in 17 days since that was the same close timeline the all-cash offer provided. We said yes and put our reputation on the line. Our clients had their offer accepted and 17 days later they were the owners of their dream home. In a low inventory market any lender can give clients debt, but a strong reputation and the experience to execute is what separates our mortgage planning practice from traditional lenders. 310.607.0131
