Here’s the 5 ways the P.L. could save you money & why you will want to use the builder’s lender when you build a house.
#1 The Preferred Lender knows the builder’s system & exactly what they require. This streamlines the process, making things less stressful for you. Often outside lenders will keep contacting you for more information. This can go on for weeks & it can quickly become annoying & frustrating.
#2 The Preferred Lender will make sure you close on time. Because the preferred lender is in constant contact with the builder, they’ll know right away if anything changes & when it comes to NHC delays are normal. On rare occasions, the builder could move up the closing date. The preferred lender will know this right away & they’ll be able to quickly adjust the closing date. The outside lender is always a few days behind. Also, outside lenders don’t know what documents are required from the builder. This often leaves them scrambling to get the appropriate paperwork turned in.
#3 With the Preferred Lender you’ll often avoid late fees. If you chose to go with an outside lender & you’re unable to close on the date specified by the homebuilder, due to any loan issues, the builder will charge you late fees. And, just for the record, this happens a lot more than you’d think. If you’re using the Preferred Lender, & there’s a delay due to something that’s come up or that they’ve done, the builder will often waive these fees.
#4 The Preferred Lender will reduce their commission for the homebuilder’s clients which will save you money. Why would they do this? Because the builder will send them dozens or even hundreds of clients each year who are ready to buy a home right now. Also, the preferred lender doesn’t have to spend a whole lot of money to get these exceptional clients.
#5 When you use the Preferred Lender, the builder will pay some or all of your closing costs, OR they’ll give you some other kind of incentive like a refrigerator or a credit at their design center. Why would the builder give you money for using their chosen lender? Well, there’s actually lot of reasons & here’s just a few.
1st, the builder will know right away if a buyer doesn’t qualify to build a house. This gives them the ability to quickly cancel the contract & move on. Sometimes outside lenders will give an approval to a client who CAN’T qualify to buy the home. When it happens, it can be costly for the builder. If it takes a few months to sell the house, it could end up costing the builder thousands of dollars. By using the Preferred Lender, the builder can keep close tabs on you. If you were to do something silly & damage your credit or buy something expensive like a car, the Preferred Lender will let the builder know as soon as they find out. This will allow the builder to find a solution, hopefully before the home is completed.
A lot of people think that the Preferred Lender incentive is a scam or a trick & that somehow, they’ll end up paying for the incentive with increased closing costs or a higher mortgage rate. But, it is a real incentive & the builder is happy to contribute some cash to help ensure the process goes smooth.

WE did not have a choice the builder required us to use their preferred lender. We applied for and qualified for military hero's loan. Our hero's loan was approved, provided multiple preapproval letter to builder from, locked in our rate, appraisal done and then couple weeks or so before closing we were told we had to use your preferred lender and pay $6000 in points to get an interest rate that is higher than our hero's loan rate (we did not have $6000) and we must close with on time or be sued. The preferred lender payment is almost $500 more a month mortgage and they had to redo paperwork, so we closed 2 days late. This is our first NEW house ever. Even our bank tried to write to your office, but they refuse to let our bank do the loan.

They can't force you to use a specific lender, but per your contract, you may have agreed to accepting some benefit that tied you to that lender. Or some builders require you to make the decision at time of contract or shortly after.

Ty, thank you for these videos. They have helped a ton during our build process. Primary reason for wanting to build a home is being able to hand select the community, lot, the floor plan, & most of the final finishes. We are building with a Big National Builder. We are using their affiliate lender. Just locked in at a great rate under 3%. No origination Fee and the builder included thousands towards closing cost. Plus a free finished basement. I really thought it was too good to be true and was looking for the "catch". I dont think any other lender would have been able to compete.

Hey Austin, it's great to hear from you & thanks for the compliment. My favorite close all time is the assumptive close. When I spend an hour with someone showing them homes & talking about everything I'm assuming they're ready to go. I sit them down in my office & just pull out the contract asking if they brought their check book for earnest money. Other wise I'll just say, "well, are you ready to lock this one up?" I always try to get people to make a commitment on their first visit. Thanks for your excellent question. I hope all is going well with you & please keep in touch.

Wow, I always thought it was a type of scam, that the lender and builder were somehow in "cahoots" with each other, or that there was a bit of nepotism involved. Thank you for your honesty and ethics on how everything really works! Two quick questions: When going for pre-approval with both lenders (my lender of choice and the preferred lender), #1 do I apply for both on the same day, so as to ensure that the second lender doesn't see a credit score hit? And #2, what if there are multiple preferred lenders for the construction company, as in the case of a builder I am aware of nearby in my current city, that has 10 preferred lenders? What do I do about that? Now, to your question: The reason we're going to be building within the next several years, is because we are retiring, and we want to be closer to all of our family, who live in different states. We'll be moving to another state that is close to being equidistant between 3 of our families, and closer to our remaining 4 families. LOTS of traveling in our future!

@TyWilde 3 жыл бұрын

Thanks for the compliment and for your excellent questions. Your answer to question number one is that you can apply with them at any time. You will only get hit on your credit for the first pull. You can actually apply with four or five lenders and only get hit the one time. To answer your question number two, I would ask the sales person which two are the best and apply with both of them.

Our builder just started the digging process for our new house. We have already been preapproved by our lender for this house. Our builder never offered their preferred lender-is it too late to ask about their preferred lender and if there are any incentives to using theirs? We have been wanting a “second opinion” on our rates. What do you suggest?

@TyWilde 4 жыл бұрын

Excellent question. I would just ask if they have a preferred lender & if there is an incentive for using them. If they don't have a preferred lender you can just contact a second lender to compare the rate & terms against the original loan approval. I would probably wait to do this until the home is 45-60 days from completion. Maybe when they start painting the interior of the home. Please let me know if you have any other questions. Where are you building a home?

@@TyWilde i know we seem to be going an unusual route on our future home build (i.e. contacting builder before even having a lot) but at this point i am still stuck on which builder to pick because it all boils down to who can give us the cheapest quote for the specs we need for our home. but it seems like we can't really get the real numbers unless we pick THE builder, go through the design phase and then they can give a closer ballpark figure for us. i am leaning towards a local builder who only does 1-3 houses a year with the logic that he oversees the builds himself and is more hands on versus the big national builders who might be more focused on wider profit margins and our project might not be big enough for them to pay attention to. we are in a suburb located south of houston

I’m going with a new construction home and the preferred lender quoted me 3.39% mortgage rate a few weeks ago, and my local credit union quoted me 2.87%. This is with 10% down payment and a 790 credit score. I was disgusted with the in-house lender. The $5000 incentive they gave me with going in-house lender is a joke when you compare the rate differences overtime.

I would walk away from the builder & see if you can find any lenders who will do a 6 month rate lock. It will cost you some money up front & with the delays, you want to be careful. But, if the builder is going to play hard ball, I'd just walk away from them.
