๐ก UNDER CONTRACT? DONโT MESS UP YOUR CLOSING!
Until you have the keys in your hand:
โ Donโt buy a new car, boat, furniture, or other big-ticket items on credit.
โ Donโt open or close credit cards or take out new loans.
โ Donโt change jobs or quit your job without talking to your lender first.
โ Donโt make large unexplained cash deposits or move money between accounts without documentation.
โ Donโt co-sign a loan for anyone.
โ Donโt miss or make late payments.
โ Donโt spend the money youโve set aside for your down payment and closing costs.
โ And yesโฆ probably hold off on buying that diamond ring for your girlfriend. ๐๐
Simple rule: From loan approval to closing, keep your credit, employment, debt, and bank accounts as boring as possible.
When in doubt, call your lender BEFORE making a financial move. ๐๐
