The Loan Process

We don't expect our Clients to be professionals at the loan process. After all, how many times does the average person go through the process of purchasing or refinancing a home? We understand that the process is confusing, time consuming and sometimes even frustrating. That is why we have made it our commitment to having "Mortgages Made Simple" and earn your referrals.

Steps involved in a typical loan
1. Apply for the Loan
2. IndyMac Bank Processes your application and documentation
3. Obtain Credit Approval (We do this for you)
4. Conditions from your investor (Items we need from you)
5. Find a home (This step is not necessary if you are refinancing)
6. Appraisal
7. Submit loan conditions
8. Receive formal approval
9. Request loan documents
10. Sign loan documents
11. Fund and record the loan

As you can see, the basic loan has about 11 steps. Three to four people will be involved with each process of your loan and over a dozen people can work on your transaction in all. We are not saying that everyone is going to look at your personal information, in fact, only two or three people will see your documention such as bank statements and credit report. What we are saying is that the entire loan process depends on cooperation from many different people and excellent coordination. You need someone you can trust, someone who will be honest and someone who will be your advocate to help your loan move along as smoothly as possible. That's why The Pickering Group is the right choice for you.

Are You Ready To Fly?
Obtaining a loan is like taking an airplane flight across the country. When you start out on your trip, you have no idea how the trip will go. Neither does the pilot.

You could run into 50 different types of turbulence or you could have a smooth flight and land on time. Certainly, the pilot will try to use his or her experience to navigate around storms and go for the smoothest flight plan, but if they're honest, they can't promise a turbulence-free trip.

Their job is simply to get you to your destination in the least time and with the least aggravation. While keeping you informed throughout the trip.

As your Lending Agent, I see myself as the pilot of your plane. My job is to assist you in getting your home for the least amount of money, in the least time and with the least aggravation. I can't promise you that we will not have turbulence, but I will promise that I will use my expertise and experience to give you the smoothest flight possible. And if we do hit some turbulence, I promise to never bail out on you or withhold any information. I'll be your teammate throughout the flight and until we get you safely to your destination.

Fred The Head
Your Reticular Activator is the part of your brain that heightens your awareness of certain things. Do you remember the last time you bought a new car? Do you remember how as soon as you bought it you started seeing cars just like yours all over the road? This is your Reticular Activator System (RAS) at work.

You may wonder why I ask you about this phenomenon. Well, until we applied it to our business, we just thought that as our client (current or past) you would naturally notice anyone with a real estate financing need & would think to refer them.

We've learned that without a direct and conscious message to the brain, you are not particularly likely to notice people around you that are buying or refinancing homes. In fact, chances are that a number of your friends or associates have probably already bought or sold houses since we first spoke.

This year, my goal is to spend more time serving my current clients and less time pursuing brand new clients. We would much rather be serving you, and others like you, than advertising to the general public for new business.

Would you like your friends and family to receive great service and remember that you were the one who made it possible? Please turn on your Reticular Activator so that when you hear conversations about "Mortgages", "Real Estate" or "Financing", you automatically think of me and have those people call me.

THANK YOU!
