REAL ESTATE FINANCING
Why and how we are different from any other Real Estate Mortgage Company?
It may not be obvious, but Income Tax Preparation and Real Estate Financing actually go hand-in-hand… that’s been very clear to us, year-after-year, preparing client Income Tax returns.
Once we have a detailed financial overview of our client (and their life story), we’re much better able, over time, to make the most beneficial “next step” recommendations for their unique situation.
Some of those recommendations may include advice regarding the possible purchase, sale, or refinancing of real estate… and the best timing involved.
Key Point: Frequently, the timing is as important, if not more so, than the underlying transaction itself.
Many times we’ve advised clients to hold-off either their purchase or sale of a property. Why would do that? (After all, telling our clients to “go-ahead” would bring us more advisory business and a potential commissions, as well.)
Here’s an actual client example:
Recently, we had a couple who wanted to buy a new house and utilize our services in obtaining a purchase loan to fund the transaction. We’d already been preparing their income tax returns for several years. As a result of our understanding their overall financial picture, we didn’t think this purchase was a wise decision.
The real estate agent involved was pushing them to buy, so we were invited to see the house for ourselves.
We knew their life story, and regardless of how beautiful the property and seductive the “deal”, it simply was not the right time nor place for them.
After our tour, we had a heart-to-heart talk with our clients. While we respected the fact that the final decision was theirs and theirs alone, we didn’t hold anything back. We gave them our honest opinion… and why our advice was to say “no” to the deal.
In few days, our clients choose to walk away from the purchase.
They had listened to our recommendation and did not buy the house. Within a few short months, they ended-up relocating to another state, so our “no” advice was both timely and the right decision for their situation.
We’re still on friendly terms and in communication with them. Had they closed on that “wonderful deal”, they would have had a devastating issue for many years to come.
In advising them to walk-away from that home purchase transaction, we denied ourselves a guaranteed $5K to $7K loan origination commission on a relatively easy, “in-the-bag” deal.
