Private Mortgage Insurance also enables mortgage companies to grant loans that would otherwise be considered too risky to be purchased by third party investors like the Federal National Mortgage Association (FNMA) and the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (FHLMC). The ability to sell loans to these investors is critical to maintaining mortgage market liquidity, which in turn, allows mortgage companies to continue originating new loans.

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.

Two major agencies—the Federal National Mortgage Association (FNMA) or Fannie Mae and the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (FHLMC) or Freddie Mac—can purchase conforming loans. For lenders who sell their loans after they are closed, there is an extremely liquid market. But the availability of potential buyers is reduced greatly when the loan amount goes above the conforming limit. To attract enough buyers for these loans, a lender often increases the rate on non-conforming loans. The conforming loan limit is adjusted annually at year-end by FNMA and FHLMC. Some lenders also have their own guidelines for dollar differentiation between conforming and non-conforming loans.

How do I apply for a loan?

By adding in the costs of closing your loan to the amount mortgaged the borrower can realize the benefits of a lower interest rate and lower monthly payments. This is a substantial advantage to those that cannot afford immediate payment of refinancing charges, but would like to take advantage of lower interest rates.

Your employment history It is important for the lenders to see a steady employment in any occupation held by the applicant. Mortgage lenders are more likely to lend money to people who have worked several years at the same job or the same type of job. A Verification of Employment Document will be requested by the lender to verify your work history.

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.

Wholesale Lenders Most mortgage bankers and portfolio lenders also act as wholesale lenders, catering to mortgage brokers for loan origination. Some wholesale lenders do not even have their own retail branches, relying solely on mortgage brokers for their loans.

What is a rate lock-in? A lock-in, or rate lock option, ensures the borrower a commitment to a specified mortgage rate, including not only the interest rate but also its discount/origination points. The borrower must agree with an authorized representative of East West Mortgage Company for a specific interest rate in order to choose this option. It is also possible to choose not to lock-in a specific rate, but instead to float for a certain number of days. Floating means simply a borrower electing to have interest rates move up and down according to market conditions until a specific rate is elected to be locked-in. All borrowers electing this option must lock-in a rate and its discount points at least five (5) business days prior to a scheduled settlement, or else your settlement will be delayed.

Many of the reasons for a loan denial can be corrected over time. These may include that you show insufficient money for a down payment, excessive debt or a poor credit history. Once your financial situation or credit profile has improved you can apply again for a loan.

Here is an example of mortgage insurance for a $100,000 home at the current insurance rates: Down Payment on a Conventional Loan Monthly Mortgage Insurance Payment $3,000 down or a 97% LTV $56.58 $5,000 down or a 95% LTV $40.38 $10,000 down or a 90% LTV $27.00 $15,000 down or a 85% LTV $17.71

Problems can pop up long before a borrower fills out any paperwork. Indeed, just finding out how much a mortgage costs can be confusing.

Get a written good-faith estimate of closing costs Within 3 working days after receipt of your completed loan application, your mortgage company is required to provide you with a written good-faith estimate of closing costs.
