    A major lie I was told was that if you switch jobs it has to be in the same industry. Thanks for clearing that up for people.

      ...or maybe in the same company, just transferring to a branch they have in another city/state?

      It’s because your income is not reported. Lender has to be able to show ability to repay so we have to go off of income

    Hi Jenn!! My partner Miguel and I are obsessed with your videos! We purchased a house in Wonder Lake, IL, in the Stonewater community back in February of this year. Our interest is locked in at 6.5%. When would you suggest considering a refi? We don’t get hit with our property taxes till March of next year since it’s a new build and we’ve prepared for that but we wanted to try to level out our payment with a refi but don’t know when the right time is to consider it! Much love!

      Thank you! I appreciate. Don't refi now. If rates stop dropping, I will scream it from the mountaintops:)

    So, I just started building my credit around March of this year. I started as unscoreable because I've always paid cash for everything. I followed all of the advice and got an installment loan and a few credit cards. Somehow, I was approved for an unsecured AMEX card, Lowes and Capital One. I've been keeping my utilization below 5% by the statement date and paying it completely off by the due date. In September (6 months later), I finally got a score and it's 717. I've saved about $5,000 so far and I'm hoping to have $10,000 by December and a 760 score. Do you think I'll be able to by a house by then. I've had the same job for 18 years and I make around $52,000 a year.

    What if someone is 70 years old. Is that a sign you should just forget trying to get a loan for a house? I mean a person could live to be 100 and get a 30 year mortage. But again, what are the chances a lender would even consider you for a loan? Also they are a veteran drawing compensation from the VA. Thanks.

    • @JenniferBeeston

      I have done 30 year loans for 90 year old people. We don’t discriminate on age. So no prob on that. A veteran drawing comp from VA? This is no prob. I have a video on that. Call me 707-478-0637
