What a difference it makes when dealing with a Professional Full-Time Realtor. As a Mortgage Broker in Palm Beach Gardens, Florida (Northern Palm Beach County) I have seen clients recently, that want to take advantage of some great buys in the current market. After meeting with them and getting the clients pre-approved (a real approval) I explain how important it is to use a qualified Full-Time Realtor in this current market. Yes, you can get some fantastic deals but on the other hand experience and having the knowledge and not being a novice in the market is what counts.
My clients had informed me that they had found such a person and was very happy with their selection. I had informed them to please before making an offer that I should speak with their Realtor first because of the type of loan that they have been approved for.

Last night my phone rang, it was my clients Realtor and I have to inform you how much a difference it makes when dealing with a professional like this person was. We went into the exact details of the transaction and how it needed to be structured. I also informed what I need from our clients to ensure a clean and smooth transaction. Before we both realized it we where on the phone for 30 mins speaking about this transaction.
The purpose of this post is to educate the consumer. While I do believe that the Realtor, the Mortgage person and everyone involved in the transaction should be from different companies to help ensure a true 3rd party view of the transaction it is also important to make sure that everyone will communicate with each other. I have seen to many times when Realtors won't return the phone calls and I am quite sure that Realtors can say the same thing about Mortgage people.
So in closing, make sure when shopping for a Mortgage Professional and a Professional Realtor that they will work together to help you make a smooth transaction on your new home.
