In the case of new construction, the lender will want the appraiser to inspect the home just prior to closing. This is to ensure that it is in accordance with the plans and specifications furnished by the builder or contractor.

What Is A Loan To Value (LTV) And How Does It Determine The Size Of The Loan? The loan to value ratio is the amount of money you borrow compared with the price or appraised value of the home you are purchasing. Each loan has a specific LTV limit. For example: With a 95% LTV loan on a home priced at $50,000, you could borrow up to $47,500 (95% of $50,000), and would have to pay $2,500 as a down payment. The LTV ratio reflects the amount of equity borrowers have in their homes. The higher the LTV the less cash homebuyers are required to payout of their own funds. So, to protect lenders against potential loss in case of default, higher LTV loans (80% or more) usually require mortgage insurance policy.

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

Selling these seasoned loans frees up more money for the portfolio lender to make more loans, which is another way that portfolio lenders engage in mortgage banking. If the loans are sold, they are packaged into pools and sold on the secondary market. You will probably not even realize your loan is sold because, quite likely, you will still make your loan payments to the same lender, which has now become your servicer.

Closing

Modification - This is an actual changing of one or more of your loan terms; for example, the term of the loan or the interest rate. 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.

Shop around for a mortgage Get mortgage quotes from at least three companies before deciding.

Seniors do not have to meet income or credit requirements to qualify for a reverse mortgage.

Mortgage Programs If you only have enough available for a minimum down payment, your choices of loan program will be limited to only a few types of mortgages. If someone is giving you a gift for all or part of the down payment, your options are also limited. If you have enough for the down payment, but need the lender or seller to cover all or part of your closing costs, this further limits your options. If you borrow all or a portion of the down payment from your 401K or retirement plan, different loan programs have different rules on how you qualify. Of course, if you have enough for a large down payment, then you have lots of choices.

When will you know my new interest rate? If you have an FHA or VA ARM loan, we will mail you a letter showing your new interest rate approximately six weeks before your new payment amount is due. If you have a conventional ARM loan, we will mail you a letter showing your new interest rate approximately eight weeks before your new payment amount is due.

Your credit history Each borrower has a credit history report that is filed with the Credit Bureau. Lenders receive a copy of your credit history in the loan application process in order to determine your willingness to pay as a borrower. This assessment depends on your credit record, ie. if you have been late on your various payment obligations.
