Sometimes when a borrower applies for a mortgage loan they may experience a sudden, unwanted barrage of incoming phone calls from other mortgage lenders. This action can sometimes happen as a result of a credit report being pulled. The credit reporting companies have the ability to make ONLY your direct contact information available to other lenders to use for what is referred to as “trigger leads”. Although the barrage of unwanted incoming phone calls is extremely frustrating and irritating at best for most, it is perfectly legal and allowable under the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA). It does not in any way jeopardize ANY of your private and confidential information contained in your credit report. PLEASE ALLOW ME TO REPEAT THAT!……your sensitive, private, confidential information is safe! A “trigger lead” simply notifies the purchaser of these leads that your credit has been pulled by a lender to signify that you are shopping for a mortgage. This is nothing that is specific to Fairway Independent Mortgage. This practice happens to ALL lenders that pull a tri-merged (Equifax, Experian, Trans Union) mortgage credit report. My advice is to beware of any company that is initiating unwanted contact with you for the purpose of soliciting or of offering to extend you credit. Beware of the lenders that purchase these types of “trigger leads”. They are often contacting you from an out of area call center and would be better not to be trusted.

The good news is there IS a way to stop or prevent it from occurring. Once you have applied for a mortgage loan you can go to a web site called www.OptOutPrescreen.com and “opt out” of receiving these unwanted phone solicitations. Please feel free to contact me anytime with any questions or concerns. Please know that Fairway Independent Mortgage takes the security of your private and confidential information VERY seriously.

This just in – the Federal Housing Finance Agency (FHFA) has set the 2023 single-unit conforming loan limit at $726,200 (up from last year’s limit of $647,200). Homebuyers can now increase their budgets considerably and still qualify for a conventional loan, which often means more flexible credit requirements and a lower down payment than jumbo loans.

Erick Barnes at Waterstone Mortgage

Trust. It’s the most valuable piece of any relationship between two people. It is a value that I highly embrace daily throughout both my personal and professional life. In my 20 years of mortgage lending experience (17 of which have been spent as a Senior Advisor with Waterstone Mortgage) I have enjoyed working with hundreds of homeowners helping them to achieve and build wealth resulting from real estate acquisition and residential equity management strategies. During this time, I have grown to possess and offer a wealth of knowledge and experience working with a wide variety of families and individuals guiding them through all aspects of the mortgage finance process.

The mortgage process can be stressful for all that are involved. For many people, sharing their personal financial information is a very invasive and uncomfortable thing, especially with someone unfamiliar. This is why it is so important to work with someone that you know that you can trust. Trust, to be honest, upfront, and do what is said will be done when it is expected. Someone that you know has your best interest at heart, not theirs. Someone that is not simply concerned about their next commission check, but accomplishing an end result goal of a highly successful transaction built as a foundation of an ongoing relationship. As a result of this philosophy, many of my clients over the years have grown to become friends.

I’ve often said that a previous client of mine is one of the most precious and valued parts of my business. One of the most flattering compliments a client can pay to me is to refer a family member, friend, or colleague to me for business. The most flattering is an opportunity for repeat business with that person as an existing client. I take great pride in working with people to assist them in the financing of their largest and most valuable asset… their home.
