Why These Datasets Are Beneficial for Investors and Agents

First and foremost, accessing loan data allows you to understand the equity a homeowner has accumulated for a property, which gives you a leg up as you enter the negotiation process. 

On the interest rate side, accessing an owner’s interest rate data allows you to uncover any potential financial strain, adding to their list of motivators to sell.

For example, if an owner has an adjustable rate, their monthly payment will rise as interest rates increase. If the owner has other signs of financial hardship such as a lien, bankruptcy, or divorce, this increase may be enough to push them to sell.

Additionally, knowing the type of loan a homeowner has can provide background information on them which will help you break the ice during your first conversation with them. For example, if a homeowner has a VA (Veterans Association) loan, this will let you know they are a veteran, and you can thank them for their service before even getting into your pitch!

 

Why These Datasets Are Beneficial for Lenders

For lenders, knowing a homeowner’s interest rate combined with their equity makes them a great candidate for refinancing if they took out a loan while interest rates were higher.

Additionally, homeowners with multiple loans may be interested in consolidating these loans into one to lower their monthly payment. Homeowners may even want to move from an adjustable rate to a fixed-rate mortgage with federal interest rates set to rise.

Understanding each lead’s loan and interest rate data allows you to target your marketing efforts to find the most qualified leads!
