Pink Flamingo Mortgage understands the modern mortgage client … you want to be in control! The foundation of our marketing is to empower the client to shop and maintain control of the process at all times. Whether you need a new mortgage, a refinance, assistance in finding a home or you just want to sell your home, Pink Flamingo Mortgage can give you the power to control the process.
How can we do this? We provide you with all the tools you need in our unique “Tool Box.” We provide checklists of documents you will need and suggestions on how to improve your credit (FICO) score. Most helpful, though, are the “Power Tools” that will set up your own private web portal. Through this personal portal, you can view any property listed in the MLS (Multiple Listing Service) for sale in San Diego County, with price, address, and all pertinent information at your finger tips. Need to know how much you can afford? Use the Mortgage Calculators to find out how much house you can buy, how much your monthly payments will be at a certain purchase price, or compare 30 year fixed interest rates to “interest only” programs. It’s all there for you!
Now YOU are in charge. YOU will receive a weekly update with current loan rates for our most frequently used programs (our most popular feature), and YOU will receive automatic updates on any property searches you saved - letting YOU know which properties have lowered their asking price, been sold, or are newly listed for sale. YOU will know…before 90% of the real estate agents in San Diego County know. Now THAT’S power!
When you are ready to arrange your mortgage, just click the button and we are there to help you purchase your dream home. If you need more information on a property, just click the button and we will assist. If you have a question, just send us an email and we will find you the answer. YOU are in charge!
No Time Limit! Don’t ever worry about how long you are using your portal, or when you will be ready to buy or refinance. That’s the great characteristic about computers, they don’t care. You can take 2 days…or 2 years…to make your decisions. Run 2 scenarios…or 2,000…it will not cost you a penny.
We will always be there - ready for you when you need us! This is Pink Flamingo Mortgage’s way to put YOU in charge of the process.
