The Deal-Breaker You Didn’t See Coming: When a Lender Drops the Ball
You did everything right… until the lender didn’t.
You found the perfect home. Negotiated a fair price. Everyone’s ready to move forward. And then — just days (or even hours) before closing — the lender fumbles the whole deal.
Sound familiar?
In today’s Real Estate Adventures with Laura and Hans, we’re tackling one of the most frustrating, unpredictable parts of buying a home: a lender who drops the ball when it matters most.
When Lenders Cause Last-Minute Chaos
I’ve seen it all:
-
Lenders who go radio silent for days.
-
Requests for key documents a day before closing.
-
Reapprovals issued — only to say “never mind” at the 11th hour.
-
Buyers and sellers scrambling, stressed, and blindsided.
And the worst part? It could’ve all been avoided with better communication and professionalism.
Why It Matters Who You Work With
Not all lenders are created equal. A great lender:
-
Keeps you in the loop
-
Meets critical deadlines
-
Prepares in advance
-
Helps ensure a smooth, drama-free closing
That’s why I only refer lenders I trust — the ones who’ve proven they won’t drop the ball and risk your home dreams.
