Realtor FAQ

Frequently asked Realtor questions.

How quickly can buyers get pre-approved?

Most pre-approvals are underwriter-reviewed within 24–48 business hours once documents are received. Rush files can be faster when needed for a competing offer.

Can you help self-employed borrowers?

Yes. Bank Statement and Non-QM programs let self-employed Texans qualify on deposits or asset depletion instead of tax returns — often unlocking meaningfully higher loan amounts.

Do you offer weekend availability?

Yes. Offers, questions, and pre-approval letters don't wait for Monday. Text and phone are the fastest weekend channels.

What loan programs do you offer?

Conventional, FHA, VA, USDA, Jumbo, DSCR, Bank Statement, Non-QM, Investment Property, Down Payment Assistance, Commercial, Refinance, and Cash-Out Refinance.

Can you help first-time buyers?

Absolutely. First-time buyer strategy — including FHA, Conventional 3%, and Texas DPA programs — is a core focus.

How often do you send updates?

Weekly milestone updates by default, and immediately for any material change. You'll never wonder where a file stands.

Can you help investors?

Yes. DSCR, Non-QM, and portfolio strategies help Texas investors scale — qualifying on the property's income rather than personal DTI.

Can you help with commercial financing?

Yes. Multifamily, mixed-use, and commercial acquisitions are supported statewide through our commercial channel.
