eClosing saves time (and trees!)
Many of our mortgages now qualify for eClosings, which means you could potentially close on your new home from anywhere you choose. In addition to eClosings, here are some of the many conveniences of using UBT for your home loan:
- Working with a loan officer who understands your financial big picture and recommends the right mortgage for you
- A brand your seller can trust; you’re presenting a prequalification letter backed by a personal review of your buying power
- A quick and easy online mortgage application
- Software that makes it easy for you to upload required forms and get them to your loan team right away
- If your mortgage qualifies for eClosing, you can streamline the process and close from virtually anywhere you choose
