Usually you should write the deposit check to escrow in 3 days after you are in contract. Almost all the lenders have priority for new purchase and you should be able to order appraisal in first week. WF wholesale is not that bad before for new purchase but refinance is super slow. If you can close the purchase in 30 days, no need to pay extra unless the lender you choose is too slow which impact your COE.
Thank you so much for your detailed response, which is very helpful.
