Discover the Many Homebuying Benefits of Working With Our Preferred Lender

Meet StyleCraft's Preferred Lender

August 6, 2024

Building homes and communities that Live Up requires more than the people under our roof — many, many more.

Of course, before we partner with a vendor, we need to ensure they share our values, as well as our commitment to creating a streamlined, transparent, and worry-free process for our homebuyers.  

We’ve worked hard to build these relationships — so hard that we consider everyone we work with to be more than a vendor, but a trusted partner.

That bring us to Southern Elite Mortgage, our Preferred Lender. Having a home financing partner who’s always on the same page as you is invaluable. Some of the reasons for why it makes sense to use a Preferred Lender are fairly apparent, but others are not. Before we list out these top reason for choosing Southern Elite Mortgage, let’s take a moment to share a proper introduction.

Meet Southern Elite Mortgage

First off, it’s important to let you know that Southern Elite Mortgage isn’t new to this. Rather, they’re experienced at helping StyleCraft homebuyers, whether they’re buying their first home or making the move to a 55+ community.

Southern Elite Mortgage team members Kip Painter and Tonya Kern are extensions of the StyleCraft team, as they fully understand and embrace our promise to create a seamless homebuying experience. And just like our team, they’ll be with you every step of the way — finding and explaining the loan program that works best and ensuring you confidently nail all the needed milestones through closing.

Benefits of Working with Southern Elite Mortgage

Now that we’ve broken the ice, let’s take a moment to further detail some of the compelling reasons why choosing our Preferred Vendor can make the homebuying process a breeze.

  • Southern Elite Mortgage understands new construction, which allows them to lock in interest rates for a longer duration and accommodates the building timeline.
  • They offer competitive mortgage rates, which are equal to or very likely better than the rates you’d find by doing the legwork yourself. Remember, part of creating a streamlined homebuying experience is saving you valuable time.
  • They know closing time, and they work to keep everything moving across the finish line. This means no dropped balls or frantic, last-minute phone calls to produce unexpected documentation.
  • They provide top-notch service, including being available seven days a week to assist with your loan. Wake up Sunday morning with a nagging concern? No problem.
  • They work hand-in-hand with the StyleCraft team, so they can act as a reliable extension of our team — sharing knowledgeable and personalized information specific to your loan.
