Takeaways:
There is often a difference between the perspective of the buyer and the truth of the numbers that loan originators have to deal with.
Having a well thought out, strategic intake conversation can help bridge this gap and build trust with the borrower.
These power conversations require balancing the borrower's perspective with the loan officer's need for accurate information.
Failing to have powerful conversations can lead to missed opportunities and lost revenue.
You have to specify achievable outcomes and the actions needed to achieve them can help ensure success.
