How to Choose a Good Lender
How to Choose a Good Lender
We often talk about the red flags in real estate transactions, but today we’re sharing some of the green flags to look for when in search of a mortgage lender. Our aim is to empower you with knowledge and positive indicators to help you make informed decisions when selecting a lender for your home buying needs. By focusing on the green flags, we want to provide you with the tools to identify reputable lenders who prioritize transparency, fair practices, and customer satisfaction.
- Lender has proper licensing and accreditation
Verifying that the potential lender you will be working with is licensed and operates legally in your state will ensure their adherence to common practices and legal document requirements. If your potential lender is also a member of industry associations such as Puget Sound Mortgage Lenders Association PSMLA or regulated by relevant financial authorities that is a great sign of their commitment to upholding ethical values of lending
- Lender asks for documents to be sent
When a lender asks for documentation to be sent it allows for information provided by the potential buyer to be verified. This will ensure that the borrower’s financial and personal details are accurate and complete and minimizes the risk of incorrect borrowing power information. Lenders are often required by law to verify information and maintain proper documentation to comply with regulatory requirements.
By reviewing your proper documentation, such as pay stubs, bank statements, or tax returns, your lender can evaluate your financial situation more accurately. This will also give the opportunity for a more personalized loan term based on your financial profile. For example, if the borrower provides documents that demonstrate a stable income and a good credit history, the lender may be able to offer lower interest rates or higher loan amounts. When you see a lender is committed to transparency and responsible lending practices, it’s a green flag!
- Clear loan terms and conditions are provided
A good lender will provide you with a written agreement that clearly outlines the terms and conditions of the loan. They will fully explain repayment schedules, interest rates, late payment policies, and any other relevant details to ensure transparency and avoid surprises. Knowing what to expect financially is one of the best things a buyer can know upfront such as earnest money deposits!
- The lender has reached out to your employer
Tying into the importance of a lender asking for documentation, when you see that a lender has reached out to verify your place of employment you can have confidence that they are thorough in their assessment process! A reputable lender will typically obtain your consent and handle the information in compliance with relevant data protection laws.
It is important to note that different lenders have varying policies and procedures that sometimes does not require them to contact your employer. However, when they do, it can contribute to a more comprehensive and reliable loan assessment process.
- The lender pulls your credit
Having a lender evaluate your credit score allows for them to assess your ability to repay a loan and determine any risk factors. This will also help to ensure that you will have a fair interest rate, loan amount, and repayment period. Pulling your credit will also allow the lender to verify the information you provided in your loan application. They can cross-reference details like your employment, address, and financial history to ensure accuracy and consistency. Any red flags that could affect your loan application will also be identified from a lender properly assessing your credit score
- The lender asks about inquiries on your credit
This shows that a lender is interested in understanding the context and purpose behind a borrower’s credit inquiries. For example, multiple credit inquiries within a short period of time can negatively impact your credit. If a lender asks about these inquiries, you will have the opportunity to provide a valid explanation that can help reduce any negative assumptions that might be made about your creditworthiness. Discussing any inquiries on your credit can foster a relationship based on trust and transparency with your lender so they can better understand your overall credit situation to make a more informed judgment.
- You can contact the lender directly
One of the most difficult things to deal with when trying to make progress on purchasing a home is not having someone to directly contact! A lot of questions can go unanswered, anxiety and frustrations can build up, and your confidence in the process can go down. When you are able to directly contact your lender this enables for clear and effective communication through the entire loan process. Your lender should be able to provide you a tailored experience that will address your needs and your concerns.
Your lender should also be able to provide feedback and updates in a timely manner with real-time information to reduce uncertainty and provide a peace of mind.
Be sure to ask your potential lender what their system is for backup when they are out of office. Do they have an assistant? Do they have someone else that will be stepping into their place when they are on vacation? It is important to know who you can contact and when at all times.
Take your time!
It is important to emphasize that choosing a lender for the purpose of receiving fast results (or the lowest price) may not be in your best interest. Rushing into any loan agreement without thoroughly assessing the lender’s reputation, terms, and conditions can lead to unfavorable terms, hidden fees, or even falling victim to predatory lending practices. Taking the time to research, compare lenders, and consider all the factors we have mentioned above can help you make an informed decision and secure a loan from a reputable lender that has your best interests at heart. Remember, the extra effort upfront can save you from potential financial hardships in the long run!

- Get organized
This means creating a plan and timeline for selling your home, keeping all necessary documents and paperwork in one place, and staying on top of important deadlines and appointments. Make a list of all the tasks you need to complete, including repairs, staging, and marketing, and prioritize them to ensure you stay on track.
- Know the condition of your home
Buyers have become a lot more leery about homes needing repairs. Jasmyn Jefferson’s advice? “Home sellers should make sure that their home is in tiptop condition, which means taking care of any necessary repairs, touch-ups, or deep cleaning that may be needed,” she says. Determine if a pre-inspection works for you.
- Price it right
It’s essential to set a competitive price that reflects the current market conditions and the value of your property. You can work with a real estate agent to determine the best listing price based on comparable sales in your area and other factors. Work with a professional that studies market trends and data, and be realistic about your pricing strategy.
- Stage your home & Curb Appeal
This means making your home look its best by decluttering, cleaning, and rearranging furniture to create an inviting and attractive space. You can also add some personal touches, such as fresh flowers or artwork, to make your home feel more welcoming. Don’t forget the curb appeal! Buyers start evaluating as soon as they arrive to the property!
- Create a strong online presence
Hire a real estate professional proficient in the best marketing strategy. This means creating a professional listing with high-quality photos, detailed descriptions, and accurate information. Using social media and other online channels to promote your listing and attract potential buyers. Our expert realtors at Abode can help you come up with a strategic marketing plan that will showcase the unique features of your home and attract the right buyers!
- Be flexible & Accommodate Showings
This means being open to scheduling showings and accommodating potential buyers’ needs and schedules. It’s essential to be available and responsive to inquiries and requests, as this can help build trust and credibility with potential buyers. Plan to be out of the home for showings and consider a quick getaway the first weekend on the market.
- Stay positive
Selling a home can be a stressful and emotional process, but it’s important to stay optimistic and focused on the end goal. This means avoiding negative self-talk or doubts and maintaining a positive attitude throughout the process.
- Work with a professional
A real estate agent can help you navigate the complexities of the selling process, provide valuable insights and advice, and negotiate on your behalf. They can also help you avoid common mistakes and pitfalls and ensure a smooth and successful transaction.

Benefits of Pre-Inspections for Buyer and Sellers
Benefits of Pre-Inspections for Buyer and Sellers
What is a Pre-Inspection?
A pre-inspection is an assessment conducted by a licensed home inspector either before a property is listed for sale or before the property is purchased. This inspection covers the structural integrity, roofing, electrical systems, plumbing, heating, and cooling systems, and other major components of the property. The intention for a pre-inspection is to identify any existing or potential issues that could impact the safety, functionality, or value of the property.
Understanding the Importance of Pre-Inspection
For Buyers: A pre-inspection helps identify significant issues with the property that you need to know before finalizing your purchase. This crucial step not only assists you in making a well-informed decision but also provides you with additional support for potentially negotiating repairs or adjusting your offer.This can be a critical tool in winning during multiple offer scenarios; in doing so, Buyers elect to “satisfy” their inspection contingency before their offer is accepted.
For Sellers: Opting for what we call a “Seller Procured Pre-inspection” before listing your property can streamline negotiations. These advanced inspections give Sellers more control over the sale process and an opportunity to get ahead of potential issues that could complicate a future sale. For example, rather than rushing to obtain a bid in the 3-days allocated by a traditional inspection contingency (Form 35) a pre-inspection allows a Seller time to meet with multiple vendors and strategize around areas of concern.
Seller Procured pre-inspections also showcase your commitment to transparency, making your home more appealing to prospective buyers. In highly competitive situations, some Buyers will walk away rather than waive their inspection contingency (we understand - inspections are important!) Also not every Buyer can afford to do multiple pre-inspections, so this can be a tool to increase the attractiveness of your home.
Navigating Costs and Timing
Home inspections are an investment that varies by property size, type and location. For example, condo inspections tend to be cheaper than a large, freestanding home. It’s also important to know that you will typically use a separate inspector to look at the sewer line or septic system.
For Buyers: It is possible to budget for this, as the cost can typically range depending on the size and location of your intended property. Inspections of structures are usually between $350 and $600 while sewer and septic inspections range between $200-600. Your broker should provide you with a few names of inspectors they trust, and disclose any personal conflicts (like being in a relationship with the inspector).
For Sellers: The cost to do a home inspection is similar to what’s quoted above for Buyers, but Sellers have a few other potential upfront costs if they are trying to get ahead on their inspections. For example, a Seller might have a home inspection AND also get their septic pumped and inspected as required by the local municipality. Pumping and filing costs can total almost $2000 depending on the size of your septic system. This amount can typically be paid when the house closes (ask your agent for more details on that).
Sellers also may discover items that need repair, or items that would add value to the house if updated. Our Windermere Ready Loan program provides Sellers with up to $100,000 (based on the equity in their home) with minimal upfront costs. The 6-month loan is paid back at closing the program along with interest charges. This program enables sellers to undertake necessary repairs (potentially revealed during a pre-inspection) or upgrades that will make their home more desirable when listed (usually pointed out by a savvy Realtor!)
Handling Inspection Findings
For Buyers: Discovering significant issues may feel unsettling, but it provides an opportunity for gathering additional information and/or negotiations. Whether it’s requesting repairs, renegotiating the price, just establishing peace of mind or deciding to walk away, Buyers are empowered with the knowledge they have gained during a pre-inspection.
For Sellers: Unfavorable inspection results don’t have to be deal-breakers! Addressing repairs ahead of time, adjusting your asking price, or being upfront about issues can help maintain trust and attract more serious Buyers. And yes, it’s true that Sellers must share a copy of their pre-inspection with a Buyer as part of the Seller Disclosure law in Washington. But did you know that Seller’s must also share previous inspections (say from when they purchased the home) if they still have them? Because of this, sometimes it can be good to get an updated pre-inspection that reflects repairs or upgrades you’ve made since your purchase.
Just Remember…
It’s completely normal to feel like the home inspection process is confusing and/or overwhelming! Our team is here to help you navigate these complexities, the potential costs and most importantly the options available whether you’re buying or selling.
New Covenant Homeownership Program Opened in WA
A Pledge for Homeownership
In a historic and groundbreaking move to address past housing discrimination, the Washington State Legislature passed the Covenant Homeownership Act in the spring of 2023. This foundational legislation was created to bring forth reparations for victims of racially restrictive covenants—tools of housing exclusion and segregation that denied opportunities to generations of BIPOC communities.
Jasmyn Jefferson, Designated Broker and co-owner at Windermere Central Sound, has been appointed by Governor Inslee to an oversight committee for the program. Jasmyn is the immediate past President of the Tacoma/Pierce County Association of Realtors and is also working with the Black Home Initiative, which was instrumental in getting the Act passed.
On July 1, 2024, the Covenant Homeownership Program opened to the public providing crucial financial services, including down payment assistance, closing cost support and 0% interest loans! This program is specifically designed for first-time homebuyers impacted by discriminatory covenants. Recipients must have lived in Washington state before 1968 (within the Black, Hispanic, Native American, Alaska Native, Native Hawaiian, Pacific Islander, Korean, or Asian Indian communities) or have a direct ancestor that meets these qualifications.
If your family has generational ties to Washington and you belong to one of these communities, you may qualify for this transformative program. To learn more info and to check your eligibility, please visit the Washington State Housing Finance Commission website or call their WA State Homeownership Hotline at 1-877-894-4663. Their complimentary services will offer expert guidance and connect you with lenders who can help you on your path to homeownership.
