Toenails? Refinance?

April 27, 2014 by Royal United

Walter from Texas is one of the funniest customers we’ve ever had. In fact, he established new standards for what funny really means – and in the process he reminded us of why we are in this business.

It started when he complained to our Loan Advisor that he wanted to refinance his home so he could, “Have enough extra cash to get a pedicure.” When he didn’t receive an immediate response from our normally loquacious but now speechless representative, Walter continued sullenly, “My feet are so ugly the dog leaves the room when I take off my shoes and my wife threatens to leave me if I don’t wear socks. The salon folks want to charge me a lot extra just to trim the nails!”    

“You want to refinance your mortgage to pay get your toenails clipped?” our stunned Advisor asked.

“Nah,” Walter replied cheerfully, “We want to get a new pool…I just wanted to see what you would say.”

It took longer for our Advisor to stop laughing than it did to process the loan.

When Walter’s story circulated around the office it made everyone’s day. It also reinforced our beliefs:

To have true long-term success in this industry you have to love people; you love their stories; you empathize with them when they are sad; you share in their joy when they are happy; and you feel great satisfaction when you can help them. In short, you have to be a real person when you are working with real people. 

At Royal United Mortgage LLC our staff is superbly trained in every facet of the business. Their education is an ongoing process because laws, regulations and rates are ever-evolving. What doesn’t change and what will never change is that when you call us you are going to talk to a real person…just like you.

Think about it.

We are real people. Just like you.

Have a great day.
