When you will have answers:
Once we have all the necessary information to submit your application, we normally have decisions from our lenders within 24-48 hours. You will be notified via a personal telephone call the status of your application, followed up by written correspondence. The conditions of your approval will be explained completely (i.e., signatures required, survey, U.S. Coast Guard Documentation and/or State Title, insurance requirements, etc.). It is, of course, up to the customer to decide if the approval is acceptable, and if you wish to proceed.

Where do you go from here:
We will work with you, the seller and the Dealer/Broker to schedule a mutually satisfactory settlement date. This date is based on compliance with the conditions and/or requirements specified by lender.
