The gap between alternative lending and the top 5 banks is inching closer and closer everyday. And it was never more clear than when we attended MortgageFest last month! We got to shake hands with many of our partners as well as meet some new connections that can help us offer even more solutions to our clients!
We often talk about how we love to help first time home buyers, but that doesn’t always mean we put them in a prime mortgage at the lowest interest rate around. It is getting increasingly harder to fit into that box.
It sometimes looks like a self employed client who would rather take a slightly higher interest rate than pull all of their money out of their company and pay extremely high income taxes, or a recently divorced woman who took a hit to her credit but still needs to buy a home for herself and her children.
Alternative lending has become cheaper, more accessible and can sometimes even offers more flexibility and long term savings, depending on the client’s needs and situation.
Every situation is extremely unique, and thankfully, we have over 40 lenders that are happy to help with 99% of those situations.
5 years ago, alternative lending was looked at as bad, embarrassing and even desperate. Now a days, it is a great way to strategize and make your money work for you!
A huge thank you to MPC for organizing a fantastic event this year and allowing us brokers to do what we do best….create new and lasting relationships!
