Maybe. You may have to do some fine-tuning to zero in on the exact figure. Plus, lenders know how to stretch a client a bit higher if they need it.

Why are Home Equity Loans and Lines of Credit so popular? Because home equity loans and lines of credit are secured by your home, there are three distinct advantages over other types of loans: lower interest rates, tax deductible interest (consult your tax advisor) and large loan amounts. Based on your personal financial situation, you may be able to borrow up to 100% of your available home equity.

Whether you choose to pay points or receive a credit, this amount will be applied to your closing costs when your loan funds. Learn more about points

Are there fees? Who pays them? and How are they paid? Fees such as appraisal, title, escrow, and credit report fees are being incurred, but the new lender pays for everything to get you as their client. The new lender also pays East West Mortgage to perform the service. You, however, pay nothing and will not have any costs rolled into the new loan amount.

Direct Lenders Lenders are considered to be direct lenders if they fund their own loans. A direct lender can range anywhere from the biggest lender to a very tiny one. Banks and savings & loans obviously have deposits they can use to fund loans with, but they usually use warehouse lines of credit from which they draw the money to fund the loans. Smaller institutions also have warehouse lines of credit from which they draw money to fund loans. Direct lenders usually fit into the category of mortgage bankers or portfolio lenders, but not always.

Sometimes the home owner would like to lower the total amount they pay in interest, but cannot afford the upfront costs of getting a new mortgage. However, modern mortgage packages make it possible to minimize or totally eliminate out-of-pocket expenses.

Mortgage Rates and Pricing Locking in Interest Rates The rate sheet on the previous page was incomplete. Time is a factor in pricing interest rates, too. Because interest rates change daily (and sometimes during the day) the longer a lender locks in a rate, the more risk that they have the market will move against them. Therefore, you pay more (in points) for a longer guarantee.

Below is a sample of one section of a rate sheet for thirty-year fixed rate loans. Rate Cost . . . 6.250% 2.000 6.375% 1.500 6.500% 1.000 6.625% 0.500 6.750% 0.000 6.875% (.500) 7.000% (1.000) 7.125% (1.500) 7.250% (1.875) 7.375% (2.125) 7.500% (2.375) The rate sheet shows the interest rate and the cost to the loan officer, expressed in points. One point is equal to one percent of the loan.

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.

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.

It is often easier to qualify for a portfolio loan, so they are often a lender of second resort for those who cannot qualify for a fixed rate loan. If a loan officer is steering you towards sub-prime loans, it might be wise to check out a portfolio lender first.

In our example, at 7.125% the loan officer and branch would earn one point and have some money left over. This could be used to pay some of the fees (processing, documents, etc), which is how you get a no fees -no points mortgage. You just pay a higher interest rate.

What Factors Affect Mortgage Payments? The amount of the down payment, the size of the mortgage loan, the interest rate, the length of the repayment term and payment schedule will all affect the size of your mortgage payment.

**Note: You will have to pay for credit report and appraisal at time of application but these funds will be refunded to you at settlement. (Certain restrictions may apply depending on loan size.) ***Note: We do not pay for your prepaid, escrows, and any prepaid penalties or lender fees that you may have to pay to get out of your current mortgage.
