Sent from my SM-S918U1 using Baseops Network mobile app Doing one right now. Originally tried to close in 30 days and I'm already way past that...but that was mostly because the lender didn't have their shit together and was extremely disorganized paperwork wise. Otherwise, it's definitely the way to go these days. I got a condo at 3.5% and my buddy just got house at 2.75%. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jon - Trident Home Loans Posted October 14, 2023 Share Posted October 14, 2023 Assumptions are the best deal out there if you have the time and money to cover the gap between their balance and the purchase price. Mortgage servicers don’t staff their assumption departments well because there is not any money in it for them which is why it takes a long time. I know many of my past clients who have done assumptions but the story is always the same…takes way longer than you’d like, lack of communication/updates, and paperwork can be disjointed. It’s worth it in the end but keep your expectation level low going into it. Once you get into underwriting then the pace picks up. If it doesn’t work out we’re always here to help with a new loan and then we’ll do a no cost streamline refi for you next year as rates come down. Good luck!

Jon - Trident Home Loans Posted December 14, 2023 Share Posted December 14, 2023 Wanted to pass a quick update since we’re entering the winter PCS season and there has been a lot of rapid improvements in the economy recently. Right now VA rates have come down fast out of the mid 7s to the low 6s and will be entering the upper 5s. Reach out if: you’re looking to buy and want to take advantage of our industry leading rates/no lender costs you’re under contract to buy at a 6.5% rate or higher you could still swap to use to get the lower rates and we can get the VA appraisal transferred over to avoid cost/closing delays. you already closed with a rate above 6.5% already and have made a few payments to do our no cost refi program where you don’t finance any extra principle into the loan cause we pay for the third party costs. The federal reserve announced yesterday 3 predicted rate cuts in 2024 but market futures expect 4-5. The fed is also estimating 4 in 2025 and 3 more in 2026 so rates will continue to decline and we can refinance you for free every 7 months without adding any cost or you having a refi breakeven point. Everyone will be refinancing so even if now isn’t the time don’t forget to get on my radar. We’ve done this no cost multiple refi strategy for years and it works out great for both you guys and for us. Our baseops clients helped build our business to a national leading lender over the years so I will always make sure you get treated the best. Happy to chat about anything/anytime (mortgages, real estate, airlines, or Cat E PIRR CAP-USAF jobs). Link to my website and also to our no cost refi program below. Merry Christmas!

Smokin Posted January 10 Share Posted January 10 How about land loans? I'm considering buying 20-80 acres of land and then building with cash. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We only lend on existing or new construction homes based on how we’re setup but land loans are definitely available through banks/credit unions. Usually 20% down on them. Market definitely continues to get more favorable. Reach out if you’re PCSing this summer or bought with a high rate. Jon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FDNYOldGuy Posted May 17 Share Posted May 17 I’m a couple months overdue on my positive review of Trident, but wanted to throw it in for my recent cash-out refi. I didn’t work with @Jon - Trident Home Loans directly (he didn’t cover my state), but he and I spoke a few times in the year+ process and he was always super helpful despite not being who I would work with. The whole Trident team was solid, the process smooth, and the rate was better than the going conventional. Definitely appreciated them will use them again.

I’m always happy to help even if I personally can’t be the loan officer. I have a great team of loan officers who are licensed in states that I’m not and Marty our owner covers the rest. We’re still super competitive on our rates…especially VAs. Rates are moving in a good direction again and we only expect to see lower as the year goes on (assuming inflation reports are favorable). Expecting to do a lot of no cost streamline VA refi’s soon but purchases have kept us busy. Always happy to chat!

DirkDiggler Posted July 16 Share Posted July 16 Like to add another shout out for Jon and Trident. Just closed on our post-AF retirement house. Process was super smooth, got a good rate, and closed inside of 50 days with no issues. Would highly recommend Jon and Trident for any mortgages.

Congratulations again and thanks for trusting me with your new chapter in life! I’ll be here to knock the no cost refi out for you as rates continue their decline. Happy to chat purchases or no cost refi’s with any of y’all. Cheers! Jon https://tridenthomeloans.com/jonathan-kulak/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jon - Trident Home Loans Posted August 26 Share Posted August 26 I don't pay to advertise or send out mailers but if any of you are sitting at 6.25% or higher on a VA loan that you've made 6 payments on with a loan amount under 766,550 I can drop you down to 5.75% at no cost (I'll pay all the transaction fees to include the VA funding fee) so you don't have a breakeven then we can rinse and repeat as rates go down. I can't do it in FL right now though cause the state taxes push the cost to high. No catches or fine print. If you have a loan above 766,550 give me a call and I'll take a look at what we can do based on your disability status or state you live in. When in doubt call me to check. We have a special pricing incentive for streamline refi's going but it ends on 3 Sept so hit me up sooner than later. Here is the website to knock out a quick app: https://tridenthomeloans.com/irrrl/ Feel free to call me on my cell...850-377-1114. Cheers!
