The Second Opinion

Under contract? Don't sign off on that Loan Estimate yet.

Send me your Loan Estimate before you commit. Within one business day, you'll know whether your lender's offer is competitive. Free, no credit pull, no obligation.

1
Send it over.

Email or text a copy of your Loan Estimate. No application, no credit pull.

2
I run the math.

Side by side against what I can actually offer: monthly payment, cash to close, and what each option costs over five years and the life of the loan.

3
You get a straight answer.

Stay or switch. And if your close date is too tight to switch safely, I'll say that too.

If your lender did right by you, I'll tell you to stay put. That's the whole deal.

A second opinion is a review of the Loan Estimate you provide. It is not a loan application, a rate quote, a preapproval, or a commitment to lend. Any comparison depends on your qualifications and market conditions at the time of review. Nick Peters, NMLS #1119524.

Real reviews from real clients.

I’ve gotten the pleasure of working with Nick in a couple different capacities. I’m a realtor in Northeast Arkansas and have done roughly 40 deals with Nick including on the purchase of my own home. I genuinely do not believe there is a better loan officer than Nick. I would recommend him to anyone looking to get a mortgage loan.
