Conventional Financing

You and an attorney (if you choose to have an attorney represent you) should review the loan commitment carefully. Make sure the terms are acceptable to you. Assuming you and the lender come to terms, your agreement with the lender is now complete.

Forbearance Plans - These are written agreements which may call for a short period of reduced or suspended payments followed by a period of regular and increased payments. Detailed financial information and proof of hardship caused by circumstances beyond your control will be required for this option to be considered and may not be available on all mortgage types.

What type of insurance coverage do I need? We recommend you discuss this matter with your insurance agent to be sure you have the type and amount of coverage which best meets your needs. We require your home be insured for at least dwelling coverage; however, contents coverage is at your option. If your property is located in an area which the government has designated as a special flood hazard area, you may also be required to obtain flood insurance for your property.

Title Charges A title is the document that shows who owns a property. It is necessary for an attorney to examine a title to make sure there are no problems that would prevent you from having clear (legal) title. It is also necessary to get title insurance in case someone else should try to claim title to your property. Fees for title examination and title insurance will be included in the closing costs.

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.

Foreclosure

Loan Amortization

Until I learned about a reverse mortgage through a friend who had gotten one, I was pinching pennies and borrowing from my daughter. I had lost my independence. Now that I have received my reverse mortgage, I have money in my pocket, peace of mind and I am happy again! Senior from Florida

What do the words amortization, escrow, principal, foreclosure, PITI, and closing mean?

Social Security benefits If you derive a portion of your income from social security benefits, you should provide the most recent Social Security Award Letter indicating the amount of your current monthly payments from social security.

Normally, PMI may be removed if you have reduced the principal amount of your loan to 80% or lower than the original purchase price. It also may be removed if you have obtained an independent appraisal stating that the outstanding principal amount of the loan is 80% or lower than the appraised value. Some lenders do not require PMI. Instead, they may increase their origination fee and/or the interest rate on the loan. This can represent a significant advantage to the borrower since PMI premiums are not deductible for tax purposes and mortgage interest is usually deductible.

What does the application consist of? The typical application is basically an outline of who you are, the property you want to buy or refinance, and your financial assets and liabilities.

Writing Your Offer Another reason you need to have a clue about your down payment is because it affects how you write your offer to purchase a home. Not only are you required to put your down payment information in the offer, but different loan programs have different rules which also affect how you write your offer. This is especially important when dealing with FHA and VA loans.

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.
