Before you start shopping for your dream home the very 1st step is finding the right mortgage lender for YOU!. You'll want to have your pre-qualification ready so when you find that right home you'll be ready to meet with your agent and write a qualified offer for your agent to present to the seller. While the internet is overwhelming with banks and lenders it is very important to find out if the lender is a direct lender with in-house processing and underwriting.

Anything less should be unacceptable to you as the buyer!

Insist on getting a written Good Faith Estimate with 24 hours from any lender you contact. This estimate will show all the detail charges that will appear on your HUD-1 settlement sheet at closing.

As buyers, here are a few questions you should be asking when applying for your mortgage:

    • What are the rate and points that your charging for this mortgage?

    • What is the APR?

    • What are all the fees your going to charge me between now and settlement?

    • Is there a pre-payment penalty?

    • Is this a fixed or adjustable rate mortgage?

Below are a few lenders I highly recommend you may want to contact for your mortgage needs!
