4 Tips to Choose the Right Mortgage Lender

4 Tips to Choose the Right Mortgage Lender

 

While finding the best rate on a home mortgage is important, so is finding the best mortgage lender to work with you. Home buyers typically make mortgage payments over the course of multiple years, so it’s important to work with a lender who can deliver on your home lending needs. There are many criteria to consider when finding a mortgage lender to work with; experience, communication, insight and credibility.

Experience

Taking a loan out on a house is no small feat, and our mortgage lenders understand that. It’s important to find an organization with lenders who know the ins and the outs of the mortgage process. We have been your go-to local mortgage lenders for over 85 years for a reason. We have the experience to make the mortgage process efficient, and as pain-free as possible!

Communication

Communication is key. A good mortgage lender will be open and honest throughout the process. They will explain each step, what timelines you can expect, and will keep you informed along the way. Our lenders work to understand your needs, questions and concerns, and will find the answers you need to make an educated decision.

Insight

The right mortgage lender will understand that each mortgage is different, and that there’s no “one size fits all” approach. Our mortgage lenders work to understand your needs, and your situation, to provide your best options and to make suggestions for you. The right mortgage lender will work to make sure you’re getting the best loan possible.

Credibility

Credibility of a mortgage lender can be a combination of their experience, communication skills and insight. It can also be more than that. Personal character and professional success are important factors. Did you know?

Mortgage Lender Tip from Bryan Wulk (NMLS# 285738):

“I suggest that all home buyers interview your potential mortgage lender. Find out how long they have been in the business. Do they have the experience necessary to ensure that your purchase or refinance will be free of surprises, and will match the terms and completion timing you agreed on? Make sure your mortgage lender understands your unique lending situation and presents solutions that will meet your needs.”

Bryan has been in the banking and mortgage lending industry for a combined 23 years, and has been a part of the Prevail Bank team for almost 3 years. Bryan is dedicated to both his career and to his community. He is an active member within his church, and has been a volunteer for our local Junior Achievement programs. Bryan states that “my absolute favorite thing about working here is helping people achieve their dreams. We offer a wide array of loan options, allowing customers the flexibility of products that will best suit their home lending needs.”
