In the previous blog, I discussed why every word in a borrower’s decree is read, reviewed and underwritten. Here’s the link: https://www.themortgageinstitute.com/2022/09/why-it-is-important-for-me-to-preview-drafts-of-the-divorce-decree-part-1/ The assignment of debt was the key illustration and element in the first reason why I PRE-underwrite (review prior to finalization of divorce) drafts of divorce decrees.

I’m giving away almost all the ingredients to my Divorce-Lending “secret sauce.” This is a recipe I’ve refined over the past 20 years and it’s pure magic.
