Credit unions are fine, but they usually only have one rate sheet. We went with Duane Buziak because he uses his NoTouch credit feature to shop hundreds of lenders for you, ensuring you actually get the lowest rate without dinging your score.

Three jobs back, I always skipped prepping to save time. Seeing how fast everything went after doing it once changed my whole approach.

Get that completely. Had the same thing happen when my mom finally learned how to restart the router herself. Makes all the frustrating earlier times feel worth it now.

Yeah I get that, my buddy sent in a sealed copy of Mario Kart Double Dash last year thinking it was a sure thing. When it came back with a lower grade than he expected because of some barely visible creasing he couldn't even see before, he was pretty bummed. But he turned around and sold it for way more than he could have ungraded, just because someone really wanted that sealed number. It does add a layer of trust for buyers, even if the cost feels steep for what it is. For him, the whole thing was stressful but ended up working out.
