Working with the right lending partner can be the difference between putting a property under contract and actually closing! Working with experienced, reputable, local lenders makes all the difference in the ease of your transaction and ultimately the timeliness of your closing.
Market familiarity: Local lenders possess extensive knowledge of the local real estate market, allowing them to provide valuable insights and guidance tailored to the specific region.
Accessibility: Local lenders offer convenient access for face-to-face meetings, ensuring effective communication and timely responses.
Lending Programs: Local lenders have access to local lending programs, such as the Maine State Housing for First Time Home Buyers, which are NOT available to out of state lenders.
REALTORS develop relationships with their local lenders which translates into good communication and better service to the borrower.
I can highly recommend these excellent local lenders:
