    This is so true, I texted Jennifer and she responded within 15 mins. Thank you so much for responding to my text. My new construction builders use a method to where they have three lenders to choose from and then they compete for the best offer. Jennifer provided me the tools and what to look for which helped me make my decision. 🙌

    Yup had a client go into contract then start shopping me w a no name NJ lender offering them much lower rate that I couldn't touch. 3 days before closing, surprise $18k fee to get that rate. They had the money but had no choice but to pony up and pay or lose house and their deposit. This story we share at each of our 1st time buyer class..

    What are you thoughts on the “Homebuyers Choice” or the “Military Choice” with Navy Federal vs the VA loan?
    It seems appealing to float down for $250 each time without a mortgage reset.

    • @JenniferBeeston
      @JenniferBeeston  14 днів тому +1

      I am not a huge fan. The interest rates are higher on them than if you did VA or conventional. So if they have a float down great, but you could’ve started out lower from the beginning so why do you want to pay extra interest?

    • @Peter_Wang
      @Peter_Wang 14 днів тому

      @@JenniferBeeston that makes sense, thank you. I guess not resetting the loan amortization is what's most appealing with the Military Buyers Choice. And if/when those rates get down to the low 4's or 3's and roll to a VA loan with the .5% discount instead of rolling into the IRRRL's. It's quite a dilemma, one way or another I guess the banks will make their $ and fees either on the front end or somewhere along the line. Thank you for the feedback!

    Why my lender included my Ufmip /va funding fee when I already put more than 33% down on sale price: $277

    • @JenniferBeeston
      @JenniferBeeston  6 місяців тому

      Va does not have MIP so there is not upfront mip. FHA has that but Va does not. If you do not get VA disability then you have a VA funding fee with 10%+ down of 1.25%.

    • @JenniferBeeston
      @JenniferBeeston  6 місяців тому

      Hi Mike, I don’t think interest rates or the cost of housing is necessarily the worst issue with investment properties right now. My biggest concern as an investor is what some states are doing with landlord rights, renter rights, and then also the compounding problem of what homeowners insurance is going to cost down the line. This is something I’m actively exploring myself, so I’m sure I will be doing a lot of videos on it in the next six months

    • @JenniferBeeston
      @JenniferBeeston  6 місяців тому

      Nah, they’re super easy. The only time you see a bunch of paperwork is if it’s a manual underwrite and realistically, it’s not even that bad then. Technology has made VA loans so much easier. At least if you’re working with a lender that has technology. If you’re working with a lender that doesn’t have technology, yeah it’s gonna suck.
