Draft a Communication When a Loan Is Delayed

A calm, professional email that honestly addresses a loan delay, gives context, and outlines the next step — without alarming your borrower or Realtor.

Write an email to [Borrower Name] and their Realtor [Realtor Name] explaining that their loan has a delay. Reason: [e.g., underwriting needs additional income documentation / appraisal came in short / title issue discovered]. Expected impact on timeline: [e.g., 3–5 additional business days]. Keep it honest but reassuring. Include next steps. Under 200 words.

ChatGPTClaudeGemini

Tip: Be honest about the reason and timeline — vague language ("just a minor thing") erodes trust. Verify your timeline estimate is realistic before sending; promising a 3-day resolution and missing it is worse than the original delay.

Explain Loan Options in Plain English

A clear, borrower-friendly comparison of two or three loan options — with payment examples and honest trade-offs your borrower can share with their spouse or family.

Explain the difference between [loan option 1, e.g., 30-year fixed at 7.25%] and [loan option 2, e.g., 5/1 ARM at 6.375%] for a borrower with a $[amount] loan who plans to stay in the home [X] years. Show approximate monthly payment difference and explain the key risk of each option. Plain English, no jargon.

ChatGPTClaudeGemini

Tip: Include how long the borrower plans to stay in the home — it changes which option looks better significantly. Clarify in any email you send that the payments are illustrative, not locked quotes.

Generate a Monthly Market Update Newsletter

A complete monthly email newsletter to send to your past clients and prospects — covering the rate environment, housing market notes, and one actionable tip.

Write a monthly mortgage market update email for my past clients and prospects. Current 30-year fixed rate: approximately [X]%. Key market notes: [e.g., spring buying season starting, inventory still tight, rates expected to stabilize]. Include: 1) brief rate update, 2) one tip for homeowners (e.g., when to consider refinancing, how to build equity faster), 3) a soft call to action to reach out for a free rate review. Conversational tone, ~300 words.

ChatGPTClaudeGemini

Tip: You must supply the current rate — AI has no live market data and will hallucinate if you don't provide it. Add 1-2 local market details (your city's inventory, a seasonal trend) to make the newsletter feel personal rather than generic.

Write a Pre-Approval Letter

A complete, professional pre-approval letter for your borrower — ready to add your lender letterhead and send.

Write a mortgage pre-approval letter for [Borrower Name] for a [loan type, e.g., conventional] loan up to $[amount] with [X]% down. Include standard conditions language (subject to appraisal, title, income verification, no material change). Tone: professional and encouraging.

ChatGPTClaudeGemini

Tip: Always verify every number in the output matches your file before sending — errors in a pre-approval letter can create liability. Add your NMLS number and company letterhead; AI can't include those for you.
