1.     “The cheapest loan in your term sheet is often the most expensive loan in escrow.”

2.     “You don’t lose real estate deals because you weren’t approved—you lose them because you couldn’t close on time.”

3.     “Winning the rate means nothing if you lose the closing date.”

4.     “A low rate that misses escrow is just an expensive lesson.”

5.     “Plain‑vanilla properties get plain‑vanilla approvals.”
