Stressed out about applying for a mortgage? You don't have to be. I have close professional relationships with various lending companies in the area, and they've helped me recognize a few things that make the loan application process effortless.
1 – Assemble a list of questions about your loan program
Make sure to bring a list of questions with you if you find that you do not thoroughly understand the advantages and disadvantages of the different loan programs. It is often a challenge to know the distinctions between both fixed and adjustable rate mortgages. I or one of my lender contacts can assist you in understanding the advantages and disadvantages of both.
2 – Determine when you want to lock
By locking in an interest rate, the mortgage lender is keeping to the mortgage interest rates for the loan – most often at the time the loan application is sent in. By floating the rate, you can lock the rate anytime between the day of your loan application and the issuing of closing documents. Those who opt to float presume that the interest rates will plunge in the near future.
3 – Determine if you want to pay additional points to lower your interest rate
If you choose to pay additional points to lower the rate of your loan, you'll pay for them in cash at the time of closing. Each point is 1 percent of the mortgage loan. If you're undecided on whether or not buying points is the best option for you, click here to use our points calculator.
4 – Bring your paperwork
Acquiring a loan requires lots of paperwork, so you should take some time to get all your documentation together. Click here to preview general questions you'll have to answer on a loan app.
