Review your credit history to optimize your borrowing ability. Be sure that the information in your credit report is accurate. Inaccuracies or damage done by credit or identity fraud can seriously impact your credit rating and eligibility for the best mortgage loan programs.

Your Down Payment Funds for down payment normally are required to be documented and verified as your own. Securities with the current market price can be used. Bonds can be used. Funds secured by collateral can be used. Money from family can be used in FHA loans as long as it does not have to be repaid. Checking and saving accounts will be reviewed for stability. This is so that you cannot borrow money to satisfy a certain down payment requirement. Each program has its own requirements and each borrower has his/her own circumstances.

Why is the Annual Percentage Rate (APR) on the Truth in Lending Disclosure higher than the rate shown on my mortgage note? The APR rate reflects the cost of your mortgage loan as a yearly rate. This rate is generally higher than the rate stated on your mortgage note because the APR includes other costs, such as origination fee, loan discount points, and pre-paid interest. The APR allows you to compare, in addition to the interest rate, the total cost of financing your loan, among various lenders.

Once a borrower has made the payments on a portfolio loan for over a year without any late payments, the loan is considered to be seasoned. Once a loan has a track history of timely payments it becomes marketable, even if it does not meet Freddie/Fannie guidelines.

The right kind of loan at a competitive rate is obviously important. So are prompt and thorough underwriting procedures that result in rapid progress through the approval process.

Finally, your down payment also affects your ability to qualify for a loan. When you make a small down payment, lenders are fairly strict about having you conform to their underwriting guidelines. For larger down payments, they will tend to make allowances or exceptions to the rules.
