We all like to shop around for a good deal. Think about the last time you compared prices on something: maybe a TV or a new mattress. You probably checked a few stores and maybe a few websites to see who had the best price or the fastest delivery. Your mortgage is no different. And yes, you can check with more than one lender without wrecking your credit. Here’s the thing: as long as you do it within about 45 days, multiple credit pulls for a mortgage count as one. So you can shop smart, compare options, and still protect your score. Rebecca Richardson | NMLS# 91445 Powered by Mpire Financial NMLS# 2108504

Picking a neighborhood isn’t just about schools or commute times. It’s about the little things, like the park your kids can walk to or the coffee barista who knows your order. This video goes through Charlotte’s areas where families seem to get those little things right. It’s not perfect, but it’s real.

People assume this job is all numbers and paperwork. It’s not. Loan officers and Realtors see a lot over the years. Weird curveballs. Last-minute fixes. Situations that make no sense until they suddenly do, and even issues that require solutions that sound a little bonkers. I’ve watched people scramble during showings, closings, and everything in between, just to keep a deal alive. Sometimes the solution is simple. Sometimes it’s creative. Sometimes it’s a story you laugh about later. Most of it never makes it into the highlight reel. But it’s part of the work, and it’s part of why experience matters.

Pre-qualifications are fine. They’re a starting point, but they’re primarily based on what you say, not what’s been verified. And that’s where people get surprised later. A pre-approval is different. Your income gets checked. Your credit gets pulled. The numbers are real, not hypothetical. I’ve seen prequalified buyers fall in love with a house only to find out later that the payment didn’t actually work. That’s a rough spot to be in. Getting pre-approved doesn’t mean you’re locked into anything. It just means you’re not guessing.  Rebecca Richardson | NMLS# 91445 Powered by Mpire Financial NMLS# 2108504
