About Our Mortgage Co. Carolina Mortgage Company is a well-established mortgage company since 1986 that has relationships with just about everybody in the industry in and around the Fayetteville, NC area. After funding in our name, all loans are sold to lenders that we represent that also have long standing relationships with Carolina Mortgage Company. Carolina Mortgage Company is a leader in mortgages and specializes in VA and FHA processing. Our process:

1. Call me with your prospects or ask them to call me and I will start off by promoting you to them.
2. I will call them and take their application over the phone or I will meet them either in my office or in yours. If I cannot get them pre-approved, I will counsel them on what they need to do or advise them on other ways to get financing.
3. If pre-approved, I will immediately send you a commitment letter. If not pre-approved, I will let you know that as well.
4. For the pre-approved, then I will print off the application and meet them the following day and will collect verification documents.
5. The following day, Audrey will start processing their loan and ordering the appraisal and title work.
6. In a few days, not weeks, we will be done and ready for closing.
7. On the day of closing, we will wire the money from our line of credit to cover the mortgage so your checks are ready at closing.

What about our next 100 days in our office? Our Smart Goals

With every new President, the media and country are always watching and judging on their accomplishments in their 1st 100 days in office. And this year, we are all very hopeful that this new President can do a lot to help all of us. Just like our new President, we need to have some clear goals and expectations for ourselves for our next 100 days in our office and then our next and next, etc.

A great way to do this is to set some SMART goals and then get going on this and then do every thing you can to hit your smart goal targets! A smart goal is as follows:

• Specific
• Measurable
• Attainable
• Realistic
• Timely

Here's a great SMART goal! Send ALL Buyers to Sam so he can get them pre-approved with Carolina Mortgage and closed fast and easy so I can focus on other things! Now that is a REAL SMART GOAL!

Quick Tip for 2009 Let's Help Each Other Since many service providers and retailers are looking for business and for ways to cut costs, why not spend more time working with them as a team? Here are some ways to do this:

1. Share office space by finding a service provider in a great location that has some space available to share.
2. Share some expenses that affect both businesses in the same location.
3. Share office personnel for answering the phone or in paying or collecting the bills.
4. Promote each other in each other's travels.
5. Advertise jointly in some print ads or other media.
6. Help each other by providing some work or service for each other.
7. Set up a new networking group with them to bring in others into your new network.

Networking is a great way to build your business and now is a great time to do this to help others too! Since you have many skills that many don't have, you can offer many skills to help others with their business. Share your knowledge and watch the referrals start coming in. While you are at it, don't forget me! I am a service provider too. Call me if you have some ideas that we can help each other with in 2009!

** B I G A N N O U N C E M E N T - For Manufactured Homes, I can now only finance with a VA Loan! ** So, unless your buyer is a veteran with a certificate of eligibility looking for a primary residence, I cannot help them right now. Hopefully, this is only a temporary set-back!

I hope you are getting some buyers with these low rates, tax credits and great home values! This year is starting out better with more realtors in our area seeing more buyers out and about. Are you getting your share? If not, keep reading. I have a couple of new ideas for your business.

Also, let me know if you know anybody that needs to refinance their home! With any VA or FHA borrowers that have at least 12 mos without a mortgage late, we have STREAMLINED processing that is fast and easy. These loans do not require an appraisal and they ignore credit card balances and history too. For a 5% interest rate on Govie loans, these can save people a lot of money on their monthly obligations. Call me or ask them to call me for a great rate and fast and easy processing.

We Love Refis!!
