Catch all the red flags prior to submission cause once you submit a file that has uncaught red flags, that's when your process slows and lender's get nit-picky.From a lender, I want you to work fast, if I am hustling on my end to make it easy for their processor and underwriter then I expect fast work with an open line of communication and I want my rep at the lender to be able to fight for me or my clients should an obstacle arise - which they usually do.

So, a common action is what I call "the Red-Headed-Step-Unit".

Some counties and states do not publish criminal information so you have to go to every county to search.If there are any red flags, I will conduct a Google search of the individual's name and the city/state they've lived in according to their application and their credit report.

I made my decision based on the fact that a) $5800 for a 90-day program was something I couldn't afford; b) $5800 for a 90-day program seemed VERY fishy/scam-y/pyramid-y to me; c) after scouring the internet for information, reviews, etc about the program, I found literally ZERO bad or less than 5-star reviews about it which - to me - is a massive red flag; no program, product or service is perfect, and the fact that they are making themselves appear as such really gave me a bad feeling about the program.

.- Neighborhoods to Avoid: Are there any areas that I should steer clear of due to high crime rates, low property values, or other red flags?

Don't you think that is a potential red flag?

These are players like invitation homes, american homes 4 rent, some even bigger institutional players like key points.

The red flag is all I am looking for.
