Indeed, as far as lenders are concerned, the most important time period in your credit history is just the preceding year or two. According to guidelines established by Fannie Mae (the Federal National Mortgage Association), you do have some leeway for occasional late payments.

As stated above, both PMI and FHA Mortgage Insurance protect the investor who owns the loan in the event of a default on the loan. These types of mortgage insurance do not pay off the loan on your behalf if something should happen to you. For information on optional insurance which could pay off your loan or make your monthly payments if something happens to you, please refer to Optional Products.

A reverse mortgage is a sophisticated financial planning tool that enables seniors to stay in their home -- or age in place -- and maintain or improve their standard of living without taking on a monthly mortgage payment. The process of obtaining a reverse mortgage involves a number of different steps.

Is a Closing Cash Saver loan for me? Closing Cash Saver loan is designed to provide you with a rebate to cover your non-recurring closing costs. While these loans are most commonly associated with refinances, they can also apply to purchases. Closing Cash Saver loans will generally have a higher interest rate than loans in which you pay closing costs out of pocket. Consequently they are a good option for borrowers that plan to keep their mortgage for less than five years.

Prior to closing, be sure to inquire if the lender requires an escrow account set up for the payment of the real estate taxes and homeowners insurance. Some lenders will waive the escrow requirements if the down payment is above a certain limit. Depending on when you close and when real estate taxes are paid in your jurisdiction, the cash required to set up the real estate tax escrow could represent one-half to three-quarters of the annual real estate tax bill.

Should I choose a fixed rate or adjustable rate loan? Fixed rate loans have a stated interest rate that does not change over the life of the loan, whereas the rates on adjustable rate loans are linked to an index and change as the index rate changes. Many mortgages, such as a 5-Year Fixed (30 Year), start as a fixed rate loan and then convert to an adjustable rate. Adjustable rate loans have more risk due to the possibility that the interest rate could increase. However, because you are assuming some of the risk the lender will generally reward you with a lower interest rate. These loans are best for borrowers who do not plan on keeping the loan for the full term. Learn more about fixed and adjustable rate mortgages

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.

Different Than a Home Equity Loan A reverse mortgage is different from a home equity loan or line of credit, which many banks and thrifts offer. With a home equity loan or line of credit, an applicant must meet certain income and credit requirements, begin monthly repayments immediately, and the home can have an existing first mortgage on it. In addition, there is no restriction on the age of borrowers.
