Financing Your Home

One of the most crucial aspects of purchasing a home is the financing. Even for an experienced buyer, choosing the right mortgage can be a confusing decision with all the mortgage products available.

The type of mortgage that is right for you depends on many factors. Your current financial situation and credit history, expected change in circumstances or family size, comfort level with the "risk" of an adjustable mortgage payment change, length of time you plan to stay in the home you wish to purchase are all possible considerations.

The best way to sort through the options available is to talk with a mortgage loan officer. Call your bank or mortgage company to set up an appointment for a loan pre-qualification or pre-approval. A pre-qualification is an estimate of the amount of mortgage you are likely to qualify for. It is not binding on the financial institution. A pre-approval is an actual loan commitment prior to a signed purchase agreement on a specific property. I would be happy to supply you with a list of mortgage sources.
