The Mortgage Process

Select the Type of Loan You Want

This part is easy. You answer some questions online in the Mortgage Center. Then you decide on the best loan for you. We provide a variety of loan options based on:

  • Your monthly income
  • How much you owe
  • How much you want to spend on your new house, or if you're refinancing, how much do you still owe
  • How much you have to put down
  • How long you're planning to stay in your new home
  • How much flexibility you have with your monthly payments

You will be able to preview a variety of loan programs and pricing options. For your information on total costs, you can use the Estimated Closing Costs tools to view the costs associated with a specific loan program. If you have any questions, just give us a call. Don't worry, we can help, just Contact Us.

Apply For the Loan

We've pared our loan application down to only the most essential information. Here's what we need to know:

  • Borrower Information - The basics about you.
  • Property Information - The basics about the property you want to finance.
  • Income - What you make.
  • Assets - The assets you plan to use for the down payment and closing costs.
  • Liabilities - What you owe and to whom. We will run a credit report to confirm liabilities and fill in that section of the application for you. (You'll have a chance to review and make any corrections.)
  • Declarations - A few more questions to complete your application.

Credit Approval

In many cases, we can immediately credit-approve your loan request. This is a true loan commitment, not just a pre-qualification typically offered by other lenders. It approves a specific loan amount and loan program based on your income and debts. It is, however, legally subject to underwriting the home you are financing and verification of the information you've provided us on your application.

Processing Your Loan

When we process your loan we verify the information you've provided us on your loan application. We will request minimum documentation to verify assets and income. Your new home, or existing home if you are refinancing, will be reviewed by ordering an appraisal, title report, and flood certification on the home. A prepaid processing deposit is required for these services and will be applied toward your closing costs. We also set up escrow for the loan closing and send out applicable disclosures so you have a chance to read through them.

Final Loan Approval

Final loan approval involves underwriting your new home or existing home, if you are refinancing and the information on your loan application. Once we've reviewed this information, we will give you a final approval, and then ready your loan for closing.

Closing

With final loan approval, we prepare the loan documents for you to sign and send them to an escrow company for signing. Once we receive the signed documents, we'll transfer the money to the escrow company and they will disburse the loan and record the documents.

Mortgage Rates

The Loan Consultant feature determines the products and rates that match your needs.
