Why Do You Need to be a Diamond Homebuyer?

When you’re a Diamond Homebuyer, your offer will stand out from the crowd of standard pre-approved offers.

Underwritten Pre-approvals

Far better than a normal pre-approval or pre-qualification, we move underwriting to the beginning of the buying process. Instead of waiting to get an official loan underwrite until after you get an offer accepted, put your earnest money down, order an appraisal and inspection; we move this part of the process up-front before you make an offer on a home. This provides sellers with a virtual guarantee that you can close quickly and on-time with no unexpected surprises in underwriting after the home is under contract. It will enable you to be as close to an all-cash buyer as you can get while still obtaining a mortgage.

We ensure your offer stands out from the crowd

With an underwritten loan approval, you can have full confidence to remove financing contingencies and compete with all-cash buyers without taking on risk of the loan falling apart at the last minute.

We prepare an Appraisal Gap Strategy to help you make a stronger offer

Our experienced loan officers will put together a strategy that will give you flexibility in the event the appraisal comes in low without significantly impacting your cash due at closing or your monthly payment. With home prices rising quickly don’t allow an appraisal using past sales derail your new home purchase.

We call the listing agent to verify your ability to close on-time

With bidding wars being a regular occurrence, we make sure the sellers know how and why your offer is stronger than the rest of the pack. You’ve worked hard to get yourself financially prepared to buy a home. We help you put your best foot forward and ensure there is no question in the seller’s mind that things will move quickly and smoothly if your offer is accepted.

Transparent Rates Available 24/7

We have nothing to hide! We allow our clients to see current rates and costs specific to their situation online. Never guess what the current rates are and what your payment would look like on a property you are considering making an offer on. Have confidence that we will always quote you real available rates regardless of what part of the home buying process you’re in.

Close in 3 weeks or less

By moving the majority of the work involved in the mortgage process to before you make an offer on a property, we not only remove the stress of the mortgage process, but we also enable to you to close quicker and gain a competitive advantage over other homebuyers.

Our team of Loan Officers are on call 7 days a week

Even the best Loan Officers get sick, go on vacation or have a life outside of work. Don’t risk having a Loan Officer that’s not available when you need them most. Our team model allows us to have experienced licensed Loan Officer’s (not Loan Officer Assistants) available 7 days a week. They’ll be able to answer any questions that you might have, update loan approval letters or make the helpful call to a seller’s realtor on your behalf.

Shelly and her team went above and beyond to help us close on our house within a very tight timeline. I thought their rates were too good to be true, but they indeed made it happen without any surprise fees along the way. Highly Recommended!

We truly appreciate the seamless experience provided by the Sammamish Mortgage team. We were nervous first home buyers. The patience that Ryan and Jana showed in addressing our queries and ensuring we understood each step was invaluable. It made the entire process much smoother and more reassuring for us. We will certainly recommend Sammamish Mortgage to friends and family who might benefit from your expertise.

Working with Ryan and team was a pleasure - I only knew a small amount about the refinance process and the factors involved and the entire team was very patient with my questions! I would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for a mortgage

Prompt, diligent. Our experience was smooth and without hiccups. And - importantly - the rates are hard, if not impossible to beat.

Very professional and easy to work with company. We refinanced my mother's house with Sammamish Mortgage and they were very clear about the process, helpful in guiding our family through the process, and focused on making the process easy and convenient for us at every step. Have already been highly recommending SM to my friends and coworkers.

I submitted my application to Sammamish after getting what felt like poor service from my original lender, at exactly three weeks until closing. I had heard of them through friends locally, and was not getting a good feeling as things moved along with the original lender, so I started with the application as a feeler. I called in a couple hours after submitting the application, and Ryan Shane had already looked over my application. I spoke with him about the closing date and how my information looked for closing within the timeline, and he was very confident and reassuring. I felt very good about switching to Sammamish after speaking with Ryan, and so I committed to doing so. Everything with them from then on was extremely smooth and well communicated, with no issues whatsoever, and now Im happily in the home. The combination of clarity and smoothness with Sammamish, along with the quickness, was exactly what I needed.
