PORTFOLIO LENDERS Portfolio lenders are usually Savings & Loan institutions, and sometimes banks. They are called portfolio lenders because they tend to originate loans for their own portfolio (usually adjustable rate loans), not for resale in the secondary market. The distinction gets blurred because most portfolio lenders also engage in mortgage banking.

This adjustment is based on changes in a pre-selected index, and will take place according to a pre-defined schedule (generally every six months or every year). Your interest rate and monthly payment will fluctuate based on changes in your index. The most common indices are the Treasury Bill, Certificate of Deposit (CD), LIBOR and COFI.

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.

Loan type

Adjustable Rate Mortgages (ARMS): Payments increase or decrease on a regular schedule with changes in interest rates; increases subject to limits Types: Balloon Mortgage: Offers very low rates for an initial period of time (usually 5, 7, or 10 years); when time has elapsed, the balance is due or refinanced (though not automatically) Two-Step Mortgage: Interest rate adjusts only once and remains the same for the life of the loan ARMS linked to a specific index or margin Advantages: Generally offer lower initial interest rates Monthly payments can be lower May allow borrower to qualify for a larger loan amount

Benefits of Refinancing

How is it figured? Typically, private mortgage is calculated based on your down payment. Take the percentage multiplied by your loan amount and divide by 12 to figure your monthly “PMI”. This is added to your principal, interest, taxes and homeowners’ insurance to make up your total monthly payment when figuring your “ratios”.

Also, consider the following advice from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development when applying for a loan: Be sure to read and understand everything before you sign. Refuse to sign any blank documents. Do not buy property for someone else. Do not overstate your income. Do not overstate how long you have been employed. Do not overstate your assets. Accurately report your debts. Do not change your income tax returns for any reason. Tell the whole truth about gifts. Do not list fake co-borrowers on your loan application. Be truthful about your credit problems, past and present. Be honest about your intention to occupy the house. Do not provide false supporting documents.

Adjustable rate loans have more risk due to the possibility that the interest rate could increase. However, because you are assuming additional risk the lender will generally reward you with a lower interest rate and monthly payment during the initial fixed interest period. These loans are of particular benefit to borrowers that plan to either sell the property or refinance before reaching the adjustable period.

Some reverse mortgage products also involve the purchase of an annuity that can assure continued monthly income to the senior homeowner even after they sell the home.

Loan Payoff Is my principal balance the amount needed to pay my loan in full? No. The amount needed to pay your loan in full could also include interest, escrow advances, unpaid late charges, or other fees due on the loan. You must request a payoff statement to determine the exact amount needed to pay your loan in full.

Get the best quote under those conditions, then call the lender who was referred to you. Tell him what you found out and he will tell you if it is real or not -- and whether he will match it. Then you choose your lender.

Can I Pay Off My Loan Ahead Of Schedule?

The Final Step - Almost Now you have to go to a mortgage calculator (click here) and plug in some numbers. In the payment area, put the figure you just calculated. Plug in the current fixed interest rate. If you are putting less than twenty percent down, add a half percent to the rate to allow for charges you will pay for mortgage insurance. Hit the calculate button and you should have your maximum mortgage amount. Add your down payment and you know your maximum purchase price.
