“Burn the Boats” Mentality: A Lesson from an Olympic Athlete 🥇🔥

As a mortgage originator, one loan stands out: a borrower who was an Olympic athlete. Despite having a solid loan on paper, the AUS kept rejecting it. After restructuring four times, I reassured them, “We’ll get through this.” Their response hit me hard: “No, Brad, we’re going to get it done.” 💪✨

A Moment of Clarity

That moment shifted my perspective. It’s not just about getting through challenges; it’s about committing to getting it done. This aligns perfectly with the “burn the boats” mentality we embrace at BTB Home Loans—no turning back, only forward. ⛵🔥

Why Choose a Mortgage Broker Over Other Lenders? 🤔

Think of retail lenders as a dealership with many middlemen adding extra costs to your car repair. 🧰💸 A mortgage broker, however, is like a trusted independent mechanic who gives you a great deal without the markups. 🔧

Wholesale lenders, who work with brokers, can fund $𝟮𝟬-$𝟮𝟱 𝗯𝗶𝗹𝗹𝗶𝗼𝗻 in a quarter, while retail lenders manage far less annually. This volume means wholesale lenders can offer better terms and lower rates. 📉💰
