Understand Your Situation

Call Me.

If you know you're ready to refinance or purchase, skip to the next step.

Otherwise, we are here to help you navigate this process and provide the information you may need to make an informed decision..

I originate loans for a variety of lenders. I'm not captive to any particular lender. I offer choice. Therefore, I'm in the the best position to find a lender offering you the best rate, terms and fees for your unique situation. You come first.

Understand Your Situation

Are You Ready?

This is a deliberate process. It really isn't that complex. Here are some pointers.

Mental Readiness: Like any major decision you want to be sure you really want to do this. If there is some doubt, wait until you and your family are comfortable with moving forward.

Credit Report: Take a look at your credit report to correct any errors. While the score you get from free credit services will not be the same as the Home Loan Credit Report, this will give you an idea where you stand. Your credit report and score is a major factor which determines the cost of your loan.(What Is In Your Score)

Bank Accounts: Lenders will look at your bank account. Be ready to explain transactions over $500 for the past two months.

Tax Returns: Most lenders will require the past two tax returns to be already filed. If you owe taxes make sure you have started a documented payment plan on the IRS website.

Before You Close: It's usually best to delay any major purchases until after you close your loan. This is for two reasons. You may need to show the lender extra cash reserves in order to close. Some lenders may want an explanation for purchases over $500. If you're planning any changes to your income source such as starting a new job or starting your own business, it's best to do so after your loan closes.

Understand Your Situation

Know Your Numbers.

Lenders typically evaluate the 5 Cs of credit.

Capacity: How much disposaable income do you have to service loan payments? They typically consider monthly debt payments versus your regular monthly income. The lower your DEBT to INCOME (DTI) ratio the better. If your income is irregular or self-generating they typically use a two year monthly average. Find your past two W2, 1099, tax return and past 2 months bank statements.

Capital: How much skin do you have in the game? The more you have invested the better. They typically look at the appraised value of the property versus the loan amount. The lower the Loan to Value (LTV) ratio the better. The acceptable LTV will depend on your income circumstance and veteran status. Lenders will order their own appraisal and you foot the bill. Two months of bank statements will indicate how much extra cash you have available. The more cash the better.

Collateral: Lenders want to know how they will protect themselves if you don't pay in the future. Your property is your collateral. However, the acceptable type and condition varies with lenders.

Character: Lenders decide whether they trust you to meet your loan obligations. This is typically based heavily on your credit history and score. Your credit report should demonstrate responsible use of credit.

Conditions: Lenders will consider the purpose of your loan. Is this a refinancing with cash out, a purchase or a renovation project?

Comfort: At the end of the day both you and the lender must feel comfortable with your overall presentation and the lender's offer to help. They draft their policies and procedures in line with federal and state regulations to protect you, the consumer, and maintain trust and comfort with the home loan process.
