OUT OF MY REALM

so what can i say today has been a day of ups and downs and trying and doing things i don't usually do or are way out of my character i guess in a way you can say that's good or in another you can say wow that was uncalled for ;9 either way let's start with the obvious today i've been cleaning the house, cooking i made breakfast, but lunch of course my husband made ;) and anybody who knows me knows that i'm not the house wife type cooking, cleaning, laundry, etc not my speciality, i guess it's good i'm married so my husband can do those things ;) but today i found myself cleaning and i didn't seem to mind it, it wasn't as bad as i thought it would be or remembered it being hmmm i guess i could do that more often clean ;9 okay on another note today i had this client whom i've been helping for the past couple months pretty much bust a 180 degree on my ass and i was shocked because this client has been super duper nice and cool this whole time and when it comes the day to draw docs he's like a total b--ch what the heck was that about and being all demanding and wanting the docs at escrow when he said etc, etc, so he's like if i dont have my docs at escrow by the time that he said he's like i'm no longer using your services and i'm like is this mother for real??? so i'm like dude i dont play games when it comes to real estate because a real estate transaction is very much serious to me and i hope to everybody else in the industry and the client should take it serious too and not try to play games especially at the end so i ask him pretty much are you for real and he's like yeah and i'm like okay u want to play that game let's play, so i take my gloves out (not literally) and i did something i typically would not have done immediately i would've waited but then again this has never happened to me before so what i do is i email the listing agent, escrow, transaction coordinator, my boss, processor, buyers agent, pretty much everybody involved in the deal and let them know that he has asked that he no longer wishes to proceed with the purchase which i thought was my right to do and inform everybody so that they don't spin their wheels here on a person who thinks this is a joke, so anyways that was just out of control and that put me in a very bad mood and i don't like how real estate which is my passion is starting to turn into something that doesn't make me content, because of people like that and its not the commission that concerns at all it's the fact that he wasted a lot of people's time and time is irreplaceable!!!!! on another note i'm considering going on a cruise a disney cruise of course which is out of my element also first of all because i'm not the kind of person who enjoys to be on a boat i'm freaked out of big boats and i don't know how to swim if i fall overboard so all i can say in a nut shell is that today has been a day of things that are not usually me......

THROWING THE TOWEL IN

so i dont know what else to say i love being in the mortgage business it is my passion i love it i love it i love but i just dont like the drama that comes along with being in this business i have been in this business now since early 2000's and dang thats a pretty long time for me at least a person who doesnt usually stick to something for that long that usually gets bored of things after a short while...... but lately this biz has been tooo much drama for me to handle don't get me wrong i get my shit done i close my deals no questions asked regardless all my deals close!!!!! i love my clients i love the people who surround me in this business what can i say i eat, sleep, and breathe mortgages it's just that when others around you are not on top of their game it gets to me and it sometimes feels like its tooo much for me to handle i cant stand the fact that now appraisals have to be ordered through a middle man company at least if you work at a broker if youre at a direct lender then you're cool but even then it's still a headache, another thing you have realtors that don't seem to understand the way the market has changed and the way things are now everybody is either buying a home or refinancing it seems like and underwriting and doc drawing and funding is taking longer than usual and some realtors don't understand that and like to harass the mortgage advisor or loan officer whatever you'd like to call it better, because in my opinion the realtor has no other deals going on and needs the commission check or just because they are a--holes to begin with who the heck knows, but on the other hand i understand where some realtors are coming from it's just that c'mon now don't stresss out other people involved in the deal also, because at the end of the day the deal is going to get done whether they are a pain in the ass or not it's just much easier when realtors aren't a pain in the ass and i'm not talking shit about anybody who i work with its just the realtors that i don't work with on a normal basis are the ones who are out of control and don't get me wrong one or two of the ones i work with on a regular basis and it makes me feel like damn i'm working for the same goal here buddy to close this deal i don't work on hourly or salary it's all commission just like the realtors so i don't know it makes me just want to say forget this bizz and find a new career but at the same time i'm not the kind of person to let somebody else ruin something for me or let somebody else's negativity get to me, who knows what i'll do but for now i'm almost to the fed up point with this....... we'll see what happens
