Understand your credit score and credit history

We review your credit score and history to see how you handle credit, which impacts the loan you’re eligible for and your interest rate.

Determine how much you can borrow

Get prequalified so you can set a budget and know how much you can spend on a home.

Know your loan options

Choose from many different types of mortgages with help from your mortgage banker. We have a home loan that fits your budget and lifestyle.

Mortgage Basics

Prequalification

This is the simple way to get a ballpark estimate of how much you are eligible to borrow and help you determine a price range for house hunting. Mortgage prequalification is typically available at no cost and does not obligate you to apply for a loan.

Application and Loan Documentation

Regardless of the type of home you are purchasing, the documentation needed is the same. Check out our borrower’s checklist for a list of documents needed.

Mortgage Journey

The lending process normally takes several weeks. Understand what happens, when it happens and the documents needed along the way. Your mortgage banker will keep you informed at every step.

Interest vs. Principal

Both make up your loan payment. The interest portion is the cost of borrowing the money, and the principal portion will go toward paying down what you owe.

These are optional and, if you qualify, will allow you to pay interest at the time of closing to obtain a lower interest rate on a loan.

This is the amount of time to pay off your mortgage.

Charged by the government, your lender may choose to collect a portion of these taxes in every mortgage payment and hold the funds in an escrow account to pay your property taxes when due.

The lender may choose to collect a portion of this homeowners insurance payment in every mortgage payment and hold it in an escrow account to pay your insurance when it is due.

Private Mortgage Insurance or PMI may be required, and if so, the lender will hold the funds in an escrow account and pay the insurance when it becomes due.
