Notary and closing
Here is what you can expect or ask for from my experience:
1. New pen for signing wiped thoroughly
2. Pen stays with you after signing
3. Only material they will touch would be your ID
4. ID would be wiped and returned back
5. Can expect gloves to be worn
6. Signing can happen in your front yard or in your garage
7. If you have a Costco table then you can sit on either sides to maintain distancing
8. Masks might be recommended given new guidelines
9. Plus discuss with the notary!!

It's not worth paying $3200 extra for a loan to get a $2500 Amex credit.......
My loan consultant failed to match rates from 3 other lenders, and told me the price match offer does not apply for the reasons listed below.
This basically let's better.com not price match anyone. Most loan rates are determined based on the Credit Score, Debt to Income Ratio, and Loan to Value Ratio. It varies based on the deal, and most people with good or excellent credit get a discount on advertised rates.
Better.com has a nice website, but they are pretty shiesty. I woudl stay away from them if you have good credit, you can get superior pricing elsewhere.
Fine Print:
9. Offer cannot be combined with any other promotion. Offer is invalid if the borrower submits an LE from a lender with a rate that is not publicly available (e.g., requiring a minimum amount of assets under management). Each borrower may only take advantage of this offer once per loan application.
10. Better Mortgage reserves the right to rescind or modify the terms of this offer without prior notice.
I am paying $1,000 less for a loan to get a $2500 Amex credit.....
I'm sorry this deal seemingly will not work for you, personally. Did you submit a valid Loan Estimate to Better? Are you actually going to close with another lender and attempt to get $1,000 from the price match guarantee? Or they already told you no?

I submitted three loan estimates to Better.com. They would not match. I am proceeding with another lender.
Better will not honor the price match guarantee when using the AMEX link. I posted the email, along with the concierge and consultants name a few pages earlier.
My point is this: If you have excellent or good credit, please shop around and you will find rates that are much better than what is offered through Better.com.
If you get a better rate by .25 or .5 percent by using another lender, it can make a huge difference over time, even if you don't get a $2500 "credit"

I applied with Better.com on 6/22. Better had the worst rates (by far!) out of all of the other mortgage lenders that I checked. I worked with a concierge, who told me they would match any price I received.
I sent Better.com two Loan Estimates. The first one, they agreed to match but added an $1800 lender fee in points, which was not on the other estimate. They flatly refused to match the second estimate or to honor the price match guarantee listed on the website.
Two online lenders and my local credit union offered pricing that was substantially cheaper than better.com. As a side note, I plan to list a complaint on consumerfinance.gov, BBB, and Amex for misleading information provided on their website. Hopefully, this will discourage people from using them in the future and wasting there time and applying and accessing their credit reports.
Someone wake me up when 2.875% with enough of a lender credit to make it truly a no-cost loan comes around!
@zwitterion it has in several cases already, including mine which I closed on 2 hours ago.
