| ...have borrowers come to the office I maintain in my home...but wouldn't you know it? Today was one of those days. I can only think of two other times in 5 years where I've met the borrowers in my office, but the company who gave me the assignment last week insisted this is what the borrowers wanted after I explained my home office setup. I charged my normal fee & didn't have to move an inch in my vehicle. It doesn't get much better than that from my perspective. It's also NOT the norm! My usual modus operandi if I'm not meeting in the borrowers' home is to engage them in a neutral location such as a restaurant or library. To answer your question as to whether I "advertise this as a bonus", my response is no. It's such an infrequent request I've never even considered that as a method for soliciting additional business. Personally, I also don't want my home to be used consistently in this fashion. |
