What Are the Benefits Of Working With A Local Lender?




We have been in business for over 20 years here in Atlanta and are local. If you want to close your loan on time, it's best to work with a local lender, like us! We have local staff and will ensure your deal gets closed on time.


Availability is the most important aspect of any company’s customer service experience. If you have questions or needs about your loan, you can call, text, or email your agent, even if it's after hours. They are available when clients are out looking at houses and whenever else they are needed. Additionally, they explain the whole process, so that everyone understands exactly what they're getting into. Well, why should you expect any different from your lender? The answer is, you shouldn’t. You should receive the exact same respect and we pride ourselves on that!

One of the biggest changes in the lending world in over 20 years occurred on October 3. Things that have been around for 50 years are no more. You'll no longer hear about the Good Faith Estimate, which is replaced by the Loan Estimate, and there is no more HUD-1, as it has been replaced by the Closing Disclosure. In addition, new hard stops and timeframes have been instituted and have to be met before a loan can be closed. These changes are to ensure the consumer knows what their loan is before it closes and to make sure there are no surprises.

To make sure the process moves smoothly, it's crucial to understand that the days of closing a loan in 10 days are over. If you plan on buying a home, whether you're a first-time buyer or a luxury buyer, it's never too early to talk to a lender. You can reach us at 770-824-9777 if you have any lending questions. Or send us an email at skatz@vandykmortgage.com.
