Mortgage eligibility is determined by factors such as credit score, income, employment history, debt-to-income ratio, and the amount of the down payment.

Private mortgage insurance is a type of insurance that protects the lender in case the borrower defaults on the loan. It is typically required for conventional loans with a down payment of less than 20%.

Closing costs are fees associated with finalizing the mortgage loan, including lender fees, appraisal fees, title insurance, and prepaid items like property taxes and homeowners insurance. Closing costs typically range from 2% to 5% of the loan amount.

Applying for a pre-approved mortgage shows sellers and real estate agents that you are a serious and qualified buyer. A pre-approved mortgage gives you an estimate of how much you can borrow, what interest rate you can expect, and what your monthly payments will be. This can help you narrow down your home search and make a strong offer when you find the right property. Visit our Mortgage Center to apply for a pre-approval. The process should take an average of 15-20 minutes.
