Success Stories #2

Over the last few months, The Kunselman Team has had the opportunity to work with some wonderful clients with unique situations, and was able to get them the perfect mortgage solution to fit their needs.  We would like to highlight a few of these situations here.  The names have been changed but the scenarios are real.

Client #1 John
John is a single dad with two kids heading off to college over the next 3 years.  John owns two properties (his home and a rental condo).  The condo currently has a 15 year first mortgage and a HELOC.  The rent he receives for the condo is less than what his two mortgage payments are so every month, he has a negative cash flow.  He has been making the payments just fine but realizes that with the upcoming expense of college, he needs to better his monthly cash flow.  The solution that The Kunselman Team found for John was another 15 year mortgage that lowered his payment enough so that he now has a positive cash flow on his rental property.  The refinance of this investment property did not require an appraisal.  John also refinanced his home at the same time.  The combined monthly savings of both properties was $415/month.  This will help John substantially in the next few years.

Client(s) #2 Jim and Sarah
Jim and Sarah have been in their home for about seven years.  They have looked into refinancing in the past but because of flat or declining home prices in their neighborhood, it just never made sense.  The Kunselman Team found a new loan program that would not only reduce their monthly payments but shorten the term of their loan by three years.  In eight years from now (when they may be moving) they will have an additional $22K in equity as a result of going with a 20 year mortgage, instead of another 30 year.  In addition, this refinance require no new appraisal for Jim and Sarah.

Client(s) #3 Fred and Mary
Fred and Mary bought their home just over two years ago.  They had good credit and because of their unique situation, they had to do a stated income loan to purchase the home at a rate of 6.375%.  They were concerned that they would not qualify for a refinance since the last time they applied for a mortgage, they were stated income borrowers.  The Kunselman Team reviewed their tax returns thoroughly and were able to show enough income so that Fred and Mary were able to lower their interest rate to 4.50%.  This lowered their monthly mortgage payment $200.

These are just a few examples of the unique situation that The Kunselman Team has come across in the last few months.  The only thing that is certain anymore is that EVERY LOAN IS UNIQUE! Give The Kunselman Team a call to see if we can help with yours.
