Lender credits seem low. Are you using a broker?

Got it. Thanks. Getting ready to go through this process next month. How has your experience with rocket mortgage been so far?

Who’s this? I just got quoted 2.875 in austin

Thanks OP

Also, do loan agents really have deadlines for offering lender credit? He says $2000 credit is only good up to tonight as he had to go through the capital team etc

@MC1 : is not UVM wholesale mortgage? How come you were able to get loan as retail buyer?
