Win the bid and close faster with Same Day Mortgage.
In today’s hyper-competitive housing market, speed matters. In fact, how quickly you’ll be able to close on your loan and cut a check to the home seller could be the difference between a winning bid and the second-place bid.
Ever since housing inventory started to become an issue before the start of the pandemic, there have been more buyers than there have been homes for sale. That means sellers have had plenty of buyers bidding for their home. Right now, housing inventory is at historic lows.
In addition, all-cash offers currently make up 28% of all home purchases. A prospective homebuyer is up against cash buyers and finding themselves in more and more bidding wars. The advantage that cash has is that the seller doesn’t have to wait for a lender to approve the loan, a process that can take weeks.
What’s more, selling a home can be a stressful experience, especially with the worries about juggling two mortgages after they’ve bought their next home but are still trying to sell their current home. Sellers are eager to sell their homes as quickly as possible.
Close as fast as cash buyers
Once you find that perfect home, and you find yourself duking it out with other unseen buyers, do you know what the biggest factor between you and them? Time.
That’s why we developed our Same Day Mortgage to give buyers a better way to compete for –and win – the home. With Same Day Mortgage, our expert team can get you:
- Loan approval in 24 hours*
- Closed in as little as 10 days**
Did you know that traditional mortgages take as long as 45 days to close…or more?
No matter what your competition is offering in terms of price and waived contingencies, the one area that they don’t have control over is how long it takes for their mortgage provider to process their loan application. Some mortgage providers can take weeks just to approve an offer and schedule a closing.
But the market right now is moving too fast for 30–45-day loan approvals and closings. You need a lender who can bring it to you faster.
And when you pair your Same Day Mortgage with our PowerBid Approval, which gives your offer a fully underwritten credit approval, you will be just as competitive as all-cash buyers.
