Compadre Mortgage: Lending Built Into the Buying Process

At Compadre Mortgage, lending isn’t an add-on. It’s built directly into how we help buyers succeed. Because mortgage services are integrated into this site and your home search experience, communication is faster, clearer, and more coordinated from day one. Buyers aren’t passed from platform to platform or left wondering who’s responsible for what. Instead, the home and loan conversations happen together, creating alignment between pricing, affordability, and offer strategy.


Faster Communication, Shorter Closing Cycles

Site-built lending allows our loan team to work closely with buyers, agents, and transaction partners in real time. Questions get answered faster, documents move quicker, and potential issues are addressed early—before they become delays. This level of coordination helps shorten closing timelines, reduces last-minute surprises, and strengthens offers by ensuring buyers are properly vetted and prepared. In competitive markets, that efficiency can be the difference between winning a home and missing out.


Trusted Loan Partners When You Prefer a Third Party

Some buyers already have a lender relationship or prefer to work with an outside mortgage provider—and that’s perfectly fine. When needed, we can connect clients with trusted third-party loan partners we know and respect, including lenders experienced in conventional, FHA, VA, and specialized loan programs. These partners understand our process, communicate clearly, and work collaboratively to keep transactions moving smoothly, giving buyers flexibility without sacrificing reliability or professionalism.

Get Pre-Approval

Before you start looking for a home to buy, it’s a good idea to meet with your Loan Officer to get pre-approved for a loan amount. At this stage, the lender gathers information about income, assets and debts of the borrower (you) to determine how much house you may be able to afford. This includes a credit report, W-2 forms, pay stubs, Federal Tax Returns and recent bank statements. There are a variety of different loan programs, so make sure to get pre-qualification for the specific programs that best suit your needs.

Application & Processing

WHAT HAPPENS WHEN A LOAN GOES "LIVE"

When you find property you’re ready to buy, your lender will help you complete a full mortgage loan application, and talk you through the various fees and down payment options. The application is submitted to processing, where the documents are reviewed and appraisals and title examination are ordered. Then the loan is sent to an underwriter, who reviews and approves the entire loan if it meets compliance.

Closing

SIGNING AND FINALIZING THE DEAL

Don’t be surprised if you’re asked for additional documentation or clarification throughout the process. Once your loan is approved, don’t forget to set up homeowners insurance. Your documents will be sent to the title company, where you’ll sign for the new home and pay any remaining costs. Then the loan is recorded and you get the keys. Congratulations, happy homeowner!
