Joint Intent Documentation
Joint intent, which is required by Regulation B, is one of those requirements that many loan officers believe isn’t that big of a deal. But, it is. It helps prove you are aren’t coercing or requiring people to become obligated on loans. You need to document applicants’ intent to apply jointly at the time of application. How does your bank do that? Signatures on an application, checkboxes, a separate form verbally or maybe a combination of these? The good news is you do have options!

David and his wife Karen have three adult children, four grandchildren (none of whom live at home!) and two cats (of which Dave is allergic … the cats, not the children!).

When possible David can be found fishing, making sawdust in his shop, or playing the guitar and piano. He also enjoys leading worship at his church.
