debt consolidation - Arkansas AR: Loans & Mortgages :: Refinancing :: Bad credit loans :: First time buyers home loans :: Advice on the best loan for you :: Mortgage advisor. ARM LoansAre there any penalties to refinance my no-cost loan in the future? There are no prepayment penalties of any kind. This allows you to take advantage of any future rate declines by refinancing at no cost again. Quoting Rates to You Before quoting you an interest rate, the loan officer will add on how much he and his branch want to earn. The branch or company sets a policy on how little that can be (the minimum amount the loan officer adds on to his cost) but does not want to overcharge borrowers either (so they set a maximum the loan officer can charge) Between that minimum and maximum, the loan officer has a great deal of flexibility. With the latter option, they might struggle with higher payments for 20 years, just to save less than $4,000 over 30 years. Which option they take is a matter of personal preference. Pre-approval is a new trend in the mortgage industry that allows a borrower to be pre-approved for a loan before shopping for a home. Sellers and real estate agents will know you are a serious and qualified buyer. Pre-approval can be obtained within seven days of filling out the online loan application. Final approval of the loan will be subject to an appraisal of the property.Attorney/Closing Agent The attorney or closing agent is responsible for ensuring that all documents have been completed properly including those related to the title search and title insurance. The closing agent will explain all closing documents to you and the seller, obtain your signatures, and record the documents with the appropriate local governments. He or she also will collect the transaction fees and give them to the appropriate parties. Interest Interest is the cost of borrowing money, usually expressed as an annual percentage of the loan amount - for example 8.125%, 9.000%, etc. Lenders will offer different rates depending on the type of loan program offered. What’s the difference between conforming and non-conforming loans? Most loan rates that you hear quoted are for conforming loans. A conforming loan is one with an original balance of $275,000 or less for a single-family home. Any loan amount larger than that is called non-conforming. Banks, savings and loans, and mortgage companies lend money to home buyers. Your lender will ask you to fill out a loan application form that includes information about your income, employment, and debts. State or Local Housing Finance Agency Some government agencies provide valuable housing assistance to low- and moderate-income home buyers and renters. To find out more about these programs, ask your real estate agent or your mortgage broker.Do I need title insurance? The lender will check the title to the property to make sure there are no outstanding liens or title problems. The lender requires, and sometimes will arrange for, title insurance to protect the property against unforeseen problems. This is called a “lender’s” title insurance policy. You may want to obtain title insurance to protect your own interest in the property. This is called an “owner’s” title insurance policy. These policies ensure that your property is free and clear of any title defects, claims or encumbrances. Get a rate lock in writing Get a written statement detailing the interest rate, the length of the rate lock, and other particulars about the program. If the seller wishes to be released from liability on a loan which is freely assumable, the buyer and seller may request we complete a qualifying assumption. If we give credit approval of the buyer, we will release the seller from liability. 30-Year: In the first 23 years of the loan, more interest is paid off than principal, meaning larger tax deductions. As inflation and costs of living increase, mortgage payments become a smaller part of overall expenses. 15-year: Loan is usually made at a lower interest rate. Equity is built faster because early payments pay more principal.Can I convert my loan to a fixed interest rate? Some ARM loans give you the option of converting your loan from an ARM to a fixed rate loan. This opportunity is usually only available for a limited period of time. If the loan is not converted to a fixed rate during this time period, the interest rate will continue to adjust for the life of the loan. Please refer to your loan agreement to determine whether or not your loan contains a conversion option. If it does, the loan documents will specify when this option is available, and how the conversion rate is calculated. |
