Thinking of financing your new home in Brandon?

When purchasing a home, applying for the loan is very troublesome for a lot of people, but it doesn't have to be. Being close with a lot of mortgage lenders in Brandon has helped me learn a lot of the things that can make the process of applying for a loan a breeze.

1 – Organize a list of questions about your loan program

Be sure to have a list of questions if you don't perfectly understand the ins and outs of all the different loan programs. I or one of my lender contacts will be able to assist you with understanding the advantages and disadvantages of each one, because it can be a challenge to understand the differences between both fixed and adjustable rate mortgages.

2 – Decide when to lock

Locking in a rate denotes that a lender keeps to the mortgage interest rates for the loan – most often at the time the loan application is sent in. By floating the rate, you can lock the rate at any time between application and the issuing of closing documents. Buyers who decide to float think that interest rates will fall in the near future.

3 – Determine if you want to pay additional points to reduce your rate

When you opt to pay additional points to lower the interest rate of your loan, you'll pay for them in cash at the time of closing. Each point is 1 percent of the mortgage loan. Click here to use our points calculator. It will assist you with deciding if purchasing points is right for you.

4 – Gather your paperwork

Acquiring a loan requires lots of paperwork, so you should spend some time getting your documents together. Click here to get a feel for general questions you'll have to answer on a loan app.
