Step-by-Step... Your Home Mortgage
Follow these 4 important steps and you'll know what to expect when
applying for a home mortgage:
Step 1 - Get Your Credit report and
Know Your Score
Your credit report and "score" is used by lenders to evaluate your
mortgage application, so it pays to know your credit score even before
you apply. Usually, the better your credit history, the higher
your score, and the more likely you are to be approved for a home loan
and offered a favorable interest rate.
Step 2 - Understand Your Mortgage
Options
With more mortgage choices than ever, it pays to learn as much as you
can about each type of loan. As the old saying goes, "An educated
consumer is our best customer". Click on Mortgage Types to learn

Step 3 - Shop Mortgage Lenders
Shopping around for a home loan or mortgage will help you get the
best financing deal. A mortgage is a product and the price and
terms are usually negotiable. Careful shopping and informed
negotiating can save you thousands of dollars.
Step 4 - Ask Lots and Lots of
Questions
This important step can't be skipped...Ask your broker about rates,
terms, loan features, down payment requirements, closing costs and more.
Keep a chart of the answers you get and you'll have an easy way to
compare and make the right decision.
