I have been originating loans since 1990. The lenders I use on a regular basis have "overlays" to the properties they will loan on which prevented me from using them. VU did not.
VU appears to be a large retail lender and as such works in their own fashion. There is very little dialog if any between the loan originator and client. I review pricing with my clients. Here that was not done. In fact, someone took it upon themselves to increase my loan amount by $15,000.00 and never informed me until I received a new closing disclosure. The time it took to make contact with the LO to make the corrections was adversely affecting the funding of the loan. It should be stated here the proceeds of the refinance were being used to pay off an ex-wife and per the court documents if the loan did not fund in time to get her payoff by a certain date the property was to be listed for sale. This is not a good position to be in. I requested to have the new loan documents redrawn that day so I would meet the time line. I was told that was not possible. As indicated I have been originating loans for over 31 years and it is possible for lenders to make accommodations when necessary. VU would not which cause a delay that put me in jeopardy of having to list my property for sale. It wasn't that they couldn't it was that they wouldn't. And of course you can't speak to a supervisor or anyone that would have the authority to accommodate the request.
