Steps to getting a mortgage

  • Check Finances: Make sure you know your credit score. Generally a score over 620+ is needed to purchase a home. Scores between 580 and 620 might qualify under special programs or need to go through credit cleanup before getting approved.


  • Choose Mortgage Type: Low down, FHA, VA, Conventional, Jumbo, and construction loans are the most common types of mortgage loans. We can help determine the best loan type for your situation.


  • Choose Mortgage Term: Loan terms normally range between 10 to 30 years. Payments are lower on 30 year loans but you end up paying more interest. Payments are higher on 15 or 10 year loans but you pay less for the home over time.


  • Down Payment: Down payments start as low as 3.5% on FHA loans. Most down payments are between 5% and 20%. You should also plan to cover closing costs, and some banks require additional cash reserves in your bank account for investment property.


  • Get Pre-Approved: You will need to be pre-approved before you can submit an offer on a home. Most realtors wont show you more than a couple houses until a lender has pre-approved you for a mortgage loan. Pre-Approval can take between hours and a few days and requires submission of paystubs, bank statements, tax returns, and credit scores.


  • Get the best Rate: Mortgage rates are at their lowest in history. Now might be the best time to refinance or purchase a new home.
