Especially big decisions like purchasing a home?
If you answered yes then you’ll love the “Hassle-Free” home buying process I have developed.
Home Buying Process – The Path To Homeownership
I utilize state of the art technology that allows you to complete the mortgage loan application using your mobile phone or a PC.
This amazing system allows you to upload the necessary documents directly to an encrypted loan portal, saving you valuable time.
Using your cell phones built-in camera as a scanner eliminates the need for a scanner or copier.
Once these items are received I will calculate your monthly income and update your assets as needed.
The next step in the pre-qualification process is comparing the data entered with the guidelines of the loan programs you may qualify for.
