Most buyers are unfamiliar with the process of getting a loan or mortgage and what it really takes to get approved. This is not only important for first time home buyers but experienced owners too. It may have been awhile since a current home owner has purchased a home and acquired a mortgage and the rules change constantly. Buyers get frustrated with all the paperwork and they feel like they are asked for the same items over and over and over again. Most buyers don't really know what buying power they have. I see both ends of the scale: people who feel they can afford twice as much as allowed, and others who could qualify for five times more than they want. Also, there are various loan programs with numerous possibilities, down payment options, and the types of lenders who are available. All these options can make your head spin. The industry is constantly changing, which can confuse a buyer. The questions I hear most often are: "What is the interest rate?" and "What is my payment?" Although both are very valuable questions, they are not necessarily the critical ones when it comes to getting a mortgage. Finding the ideal loan officer and loan program is crucial and critical in getting you through the preapproval stage, underwriting, a final approval and all the way to the closing table. As an experienced business owner and loan officer, I have read the thousands of pages of regulations, and studied the various loan programs, in order to help my buyers get into the right program, at the right time, and for the right reasons. When purchasing real estate, and obtaining a home loan or mortgage, there are so many variables that a buyer should consider. Financing your first home, second home or cottage, or investment property all require preparation on your part. Do I get an FHA, VA, RD or a conventional loan, or do I get what is called a non-qualified mortgage? Do I need to worry about PMI - and what exactly is that? Do I get a variable rate or a fixed rate? Does the length of time I plan on living in the house matter? Each state and local entity has some of their own costs and rules. After reading this book, you will have an understanding of what is needed, why you should work with a qualified and experienced loan officer, and be ready to breeze through the process and if prepared do it less than 30 days. I have even closed loans in 8 days. I will cover mortgage basics, what is a good credit score, and what are the four c's of getting a loan. What is the loan process, what is the difference between a preapproval and being prequalified. What documents will my loan officer need and what should I be doing while in process. What kind of money and where is it coming from will be discussed. What if I had some credit blips in the past, how long do I have to wait to buy a house? What options do I have for rates, length of loan and can anything change? Finally, what happens behind the scenes and what can I do now to get approved. My mantra is education, communication, and certainly having some fun along the way. Life is too short, so, you better enjoy what you are doing. Because of this, I have put together a helpful guide and reference material to assist you, the buyer, in understanding the process and to help you through that process seamlessly so you aren't pulling out your hair.

A New York Times bestseller and one of the Ten Best Business Books of 2013 by WealthManagement.com, this book brings a new vision of the value of debt in the management of individual and family wealth In this groundbreaking book, author Tom Anderson argues that, despite the reflex aversion most people have to debt—an aversion that is vociferously preached by most personal finance authors—wealthy individuals and families, as well as their financial advisors, have everything to gain and nothing to lose by learning to think holistically about debt. Anderson explains why, if strategically deployed, debt can be of enormous long-term benefit in the management of individual and family wealth. More importantly, he schools you in time-tested strategies for using debt to steadily build wealth, to generate tax-efficient retirement income, to provide a reliable source of funds in times of crisis and financial setback, and more. Takes a "strategic debt" approach to personal wealth management, emphasizing the need to appreciate the value of "indebted strengths" and for acquiring the tools needed to take advantage of those strengths Addresses how to determine your optimal debt ratio, or your debt "sweet spot" A companion website contains a proprietary tool for calculating your own optimal debt ratio, which enables you to develop a personal wealth balance sheet Offering a bold new vision of debt as a strategic asset in the management of individual and family wealth, The Value of Debt is an important resource for financial advisors, wealthy families, family offices, and professional investors.

Written by a practicing emergency physician, The White Coat Investor is a high-yield manual that specifically deals with the financial issues facing medical students, residents, physicians, dentists, and similar high-income professionals.
