Our Customer Service Representatives are available 12 hours a day to assist you with any questions or concerns you may have.

If you do not qualify for the particular loan program of your choice, Southwest Direct Mortgage will suggest alternative loan programs.
3. Documentation – When all parties are in agreement, the appropriate forms that are needed for completion of the process can be downloaded from our web site or mailed to you for signature via overnight mail.
At this time you will also be given a list of documents that you will need to collect to complete the application process. These documents will include, but are not limited to, income documentation, insurance, previous notes, etc. Once all the required paperwork has been gathered and signed, you will need to return them in the overnight envelope provided.
A toll free fax number is also available to send documentation at your convenience. Please ask your Mortgage Specialist for this number.
4. Appraisal and Title Commitment – Once the signed documents are returned, the appraisal and title commitment will be ordered.
The appraisal will be completed and forwarded to Southwest Direct Mortgage for final approval.

At Southwest Direct Mortgage, you have 24-hour access to your assigned Customer Service Representative.
6. Loan Closing & Funding – Once the final approval has been given and all conditions have been satisfied, your Customer Service Representative will set up an appointment for closing at your local title company.
