Weststar Mortgage offers approved Correspondents the ability to sell loans using the Best Efforts Delivery option. Loans are price protected (committed) on a single loan flow basis. Correspondents receive a Commitment Confirmation for each loan locked.
Delivery of the loan is mandatory only if the loan closes (disburses). If the loan closes/disburses, delivery to WMC is mandatory. If the loan does not disburse, there is no marketing obligation to WMC.
All loan pricing and locking functions are available via WMC’s Product and Pricing Engine available at www.weststarconnect.com.

Review the loan within 48 hours.
If file is not reviewed within 48 hours, locks will be extended 1:1 (one day, for every one day beyond 48 hours for review).
If there are outstanding conditions at the time of commitment expiration, and WMC has reviewed and provided conditions, a 5-working day grace period for submitting conditions will be in effect for the commitment expiration.
If all conditions are met by the time of lock expiration, the commitment remains in place.
|

WMC requires 15 days from delivery of committed loans to the purchase of the committed loans.

TOP
Commitment expiration is established at the time of commitment. If the commitment expiration date falls on a non-business day (Saturday, Sunday, or Holiday) where WMC is closed for business, the commitment expires on the following business day.
Certain changes to a committed (locked) loan may result in a change in price. It is the Correspondent’s responsibility to notify the WMC pricing department of any changes to the original lock confirmation.
At time of delivery, if changes to the locked loan are discovered, WMC will revise the pricing.
Additionally, if WMC subsequently discovers that changes to the original commitment occurred in the purchased loan, WMC will invoice the Correspondent for the pricing differential.
