Pre-Qualify your Mortgage
Getting qualified before you apply for a loan will give you a good indication
of how much you will be able to borrow. You can typically get pre-qualified
over the phone or on the Internet in a few minutes.
A pre-qualification is
not the same or as beneficial as a
pre-approval.
Pre-Approval of your mortgage is a little more in depth and will include
verification of your credit, income, assets and liabilities. The pre-approval
will give you better piece of mind when shopping for your home as your loan
will be guaranteed. You will also know exactly the amount of home you can
purchase so you don't waste time searching out of your price range. You are
also in a better position to shop for programs and rates and wil be able to
close your loan faster.
Shop for your Mortgage or Home
Equity Loan:
Think about how long you plan to keep the loan. If you plan to sell the house
in a few years you may want to consider an adjustable or balloon loan. On the
other hand, if you plan to keep the house for a longer time, you may want to
look at fixed loans.
Understand the relationship between rates and points. Points are considered to
be prepaid interest and are tax deductible. Each point is equal to one percent
of the loan. So for example 1 point on a $150,000 loan is $1,500. The more
points you pay, the lower the rate you will get.
Shopping for a loan can be a daunting task. Your Transcontinental Lending Group
mortgage lender has the experience to help you make a decision that's best for
you by comparing the different mortgage programs. There are so many programs to
choose from, each with different rates, points and fees. Our goal is to find a
program that is best for you.
Obtain Your Loan Approval
Once your loan application has been received we will start the loan approval
process immediately. We will verify the information you provide us including:
-
Credit history
-
Employment history
-
Assets including your bank accounts, stocks, mutual fund and retirement
accounts.
-
Property value .
-
Based on your specific situation, additional documents or verifications may be
required.
-
Be sure to fill out the loan application completely and respond promptly to any
requests for additional documents especially if you are locking your rate or
your closing day is pre-determined.
-
Do not make any major purchases. Do not buy a car, furniture or another house
until your loan is closed. Anything that causes your debts to increase might
have an adverse affect on your current application. Read more about your credit
(FICO) score

-
If you are receiving money from friends, family or other relatives, please
advise us.
Close your Home Loan
After your loan is approved, you will be required to sign the final loan
documents. Be prepared to:
-
Be present for the closing.
-
Bring a check for your down payment and closing costs if required.
-
Review the final loan documents. Make sure that the interest rate and loan
terms are as promised and verify the accuracy of information on the loan
documents.
Sign your loan documents.
Your loan will close shortly after you have signed the final loan documents. On
refinancing and home equity loan transactions federal law requires you have 3
days to review the documents before your loan transaction can close.
