You can't make this stuff up - Mortgage story

Didier Malagies • October 24, 2023


Beautiful loan, 800 credit scores, 38 years on the job, huge 401k, everything going on

1 week before closing - the lender denies the loan because the listing agent is blackballed from ever going there.


This is for real, I had to flip the loan to another lender and relock interest rates. close in 6 business days, go and do photos of the home, meet the borrower on several occasions to get additional documents from a different underwriter, and finally close. listen in for 5 minutes and wrap your head around this one
