Our Process

No black box. Here’s exactly what happens from your first call to closing day.

How We Work

A process built around you, not around us

We don’t steer you toward a loan because it’s easiest for us to sell. As a direct lender and broker, we compare your scenario in-house and across 30+ wholesale partners, then walk you through the real trade-offs so you can decide with confidence. You’ll always know what stage your file is in, what’s needed next, and who to call if you have a question.

1

Discovery call

We learn about your goals, timeline, and financial picture. Takes about 15 minutes, no obligation.

2

Lender comparison

We price your scenario in-house and across our network of 30+ wholesale lending partners, and show you the pricing side by side.

3

Application & docs

Submit documentation securely online. We tell you exactly what’s needed — no guessing games.

4

Processing

Your file moves through processing and appraisal while we keep you updated at each milestone.

5

Underwriting

The lender reviews your full file for final approval. We handle any conditions on your behalf.

6

Clear to close

Final approval is issued and closing documents are prepared and scheduled.

7

Closing day

Sign your final documents. Funds are disbursed and, for purchases, the keys are yours.

8

After closing

We stay in touch — monitoring rates for future refinance opportunities and answering questions long after closing.
