BREAKING NEWS: I am now doing loans again, helping people save money with GOOD financing!

I shop the wholesale lenders, to find you the best rates.


STATES

I am currently accepting loan applications for FHA, VA, and Conventional loans in the following states:
Arizona, California, Nevada, Washington and...

I am accepting loan applications for Conventional loans, residential lending (not land or commercial) in
ALL OTHER STATES except Georgia, New York, and Alaska.

Please see below for my recommendation in New York.


HOW I WORK

1) If you need a purchase loan or a refinance, please call or email me with the following information:

-- Your name and contact info
-- What financing you need
-- Your credit score

2) We have a conversation, so I get a clear picture of what would work best for you.

3) I provide you with a Good Faith Estimate, Truth-in-Lending form, and Guarantee that my lender fees will not vary by more than 10 percent.

-- I do not pull a credit report, unless you don't know your score and would like to purchase one.

-- I give you the best offer right up front. No haggling, because I've already negotiated discounts with wholesale lenders!

-- I fully disclose everything, including my Yield Spread Premium.

4) You choose: Retail, Wholesale, or Below-wholesale interest rate? (You can buy down your rate to below-wholesale.)

-- We can discuss the advantage of each, and then you decide, based on how much you want to spend and how long you plan to stay in the home.

5) When you're ready to proceed, I take an application and collect the paperwork needed. We transfer information by email, fax, or USPS mail. You will sign the final paperwork with an escrow company (West) or attorney (East) in your own area, so you have a neutral party going over each page with you, in person, as required by law.

NEW YORK LENDING

I am pleased to recommend...

Rick Cashman, Chase Home Lending
Senior Loan Officer
(516) 458-7320

Carolyn's note: Rick works for the highly-respected Chase Home Lending. As a national lender, they have certain policies in place, and that is okay. For example, one lender may require a credit report to provide a GFE and another may not. One lender may call their in-house fee an Underwriting Fee and another lender may call it an Administration Fee. That's okay, as long as they're not "double-charging" you. Some of Chase Home Lending policies/fees will vary slightly from what you read in my book, Mortgage Rip-Offs and Money Savers. Don't let this throw you for a loop. Rick Cashman is an honest, ethical loan officer I've known and worked with for over 10 years. You can trust his expertise.
