The Four Steps of the Loan Process:The Loan Mortgage Process: Four Steps

There is no doubt that getting a mortgage loan is a complex process. You wouldn't be looking up loan information if it were possible to get a mortgage loan in a single day by filling out a simple application. We do the heavy lifting for you, so you can concentrate on what's important — preparing to move into your new home or saving money.

Getting a mortgage loan involves four major milestones.

Step one: Decide on your maximum loan amount

A couple of factors determine this amount. What kind of monthly payment are you looking for? What is the maximum you can borrow from a lender, given your income and credit history? Use the calculators on our website to determine your monthly payment amount. We'll also help you through different scenarios by asking a few simple questions. Based on standard lender guidelines, we'll get you a good idea of what kind of terms and loan program you can expect to benefit most from.

Step two: pre-qualify for your loan

This is where the rubber meets the road and you save the most money. You will give us info about your employment, your assets, and residence history. You'll provide information on your employment, asset, and residence history. We get your permission to run your credit score and report. After we've reviewed your information, we'll provide you with a pre-qualificaiton letter. Be careful with this letter — it is a great tool when you make your offer! Your agent should use your pre-qual (as they may call it) in order to make the best offer on the home you choose. While you're looking for a new home with your real estate agent, we find the best program for you.

Step three: apply now! We make it easy

Once you have made the offer and the sellers have accepted, you should apply for the loan. Applying for a loan could not get much easier; you can apply right here on our site. After the seller has accepted your offer and you have applied for your loan, we will order the professional appraisal on the home.

Step four: your loan is funded

Your REALTOR® and the seller's will coordinate to find an escrow/title company to take care of the funding of your loan once it's approved. We'll work with this company to make sure all the papers your lender will need are in order, and you'll probably}likely sign everything at this company's officeWe work with with the title company to set your closing date. Because you won't have to coordinate this process, you get to think about the move, painting, new carpet, and all the details of moving into your new home.
