A Story of High Hopes and Unexpected Disappointment
Rick was thrilled—his dream of a new kitchen was finally within reach. With plans for modern cabinets and sleek appliances, this renovation would bring his vision to life.
Shelley, his loan officer, shared in his excitement. She had worked diligently to secure a rate that fit Rick’s needs. It was the perfect combination: Rick would receive the funds needed for his project, his monthly payment would fit his budget, and his debt-to-income ratio would remain within guidelines.
Together, Shelley and Rick carefully crafted the loan application. Shelley meticulously gathered and reviewed documents, ensuring everything was in order. After about a week, Rick provided all the paperwork needed to move forward.
Everything seemed to be on track—until Shelley submitted the loan.
To her dismay, the rate she had quoted no longer worked. Despite using the price engine correctly, the numbers didn’t align. When Shelley entered the revised rate, the deal collapsed.
Shelley dreaded making the call to Rick. She practiced her explanation, knowing the conversation would be difficult. When the call finally happened, Rick’s disappointment was palpable. The new rate didn’t just mean a higher payment—it meant he no longer qualified for the loan.
The Ripple Effect of Inaccurate Pricing
Shelley and Rick’s experience highlights the significant problems caused by inaccurate pricing:
Customers Lose Opportunities: Rick’s dreams were dashed because of a rate discrepancy. When pricing isn’t accurate, customers may be unable to move forward with their plans.
Time Wasted: Shelley invested considerable effort in creating a deal that ultimately didn’t work. She then had to spend even more time explaining the situation to Rick.
Damage to Reputation: Even if a deal can be salvaged, the experience leaves a sour taste. Disappointed customers rarely refer friends or family, negatively impacting future business.
