Get a home loan

pURCHASE LOAN

Recognizing the value of the money and the importance of your financial decisions, we will work to find you the home loan that best serves your needs.  Along the way you can expect to have honest and clear communication from our team to push your loan through as quickly as possible.

The most common type of conventional loans, almost two third of the homes purchased in the United State are conventional loans, these mortgages are not secured by the government rather they are issued by the various Banks, Mortgage companies or other financial institutes.

Some of the benefits of Conventional loans are:

  • Interest rates are some of the lowest available.
  • Down payments as low as 3% depending on your loan amount.
  • Fixed-rate options with terms ranging from 10, 15, 20 and 30 years.
  • Appraisal requirements are less strict.

REFINANCE

Is refinancing suitable for you? You might have heard this “the numbers never lie”, we will go over the Loan numbers (new rate, new payment, etc ) to determine if refinancing would be the best solution for you or you should stay with the current loan.

How does it work?

When you refinance a new mortgage replaces your existing mortgage loan. A new loan is applied for just when you originally purchased your home. This new loan will pay off the old loan and replace itself as your new home loan.

Refinancing will give the homeowner an opportunity to choose a new interest rate as well as new term on their home loans or in some cases get a cash out on the equity of their home.

Many homeowners refinance to get a lower mortgage rate. Refinance mortgages can also lower your loan term and help you pay your home off sooner, eliminate mortgage insurance, or cash out your home equity to pay off debt or do some home improvements.

Your 9 steps for buying a house

1

What is my credit score?

Credit score is a number between 300 to 850 that Lender’s use to determine whether to extend or deny credit.  The range of the credit score for the purpose of obtaining a mortgage is 620 and higher.  Of course, there are other factors involved which the team will assist.

2

How much payment can I/we afford?

To answer this question, we need to determine your gross income, how much other debt you currently have and generally the recommended monthly mortgage payment should fall somewhere between 28% to 36% of the gross income.

3

Get a preapproved letter.

By having a Preapproval letter, you are telling the seller or seller’s agent that I can purchase their property.  Without it they will not take your offer seriously.  Therefore, we prepare a letter for you telling the sellers your ability to purchase their property.

4

Find a desired home.

You either have your own real estate agent or we can assist you to find a home in the areas of your interest, within your budget and the condition of the house that you desire.

5

Making an offer and negotiating.

The next step is to make sure that we get the best possible price and terms for your purchase.  This is when you can count on us to use our vast experience to get you the best possible deal.

6

Escrow.

After your offer is accepted and both parties have signed the purchase agreement.  It is time for us to make sure all the disclosures and necessary forms are done in a timely manner from the start to finish.

We will send all the documents to the escrow company of your choice to start the sales process.  Think of the Escrow company as a mediator or a referee to reduce the risk between two related parties, in this case seller and buyer of the property.

7

Inspection of your future home.

Before we close the transaction, we will send a building inspector to give the house a once over and let us know if anything needs to be repaired or give attention to.  After reviewing the inspection report we will go over it with you and if necessary, we can ask the seller to make the appropriate repairs.

8

Getting your loan approved.

Should you decide to use our loan servicing option we will work with you and your real estate agent to obtain the best interest rate and close and fund your loan in a timely manner.

9

Getting the key.

We are now ready to hand over the key to you and invite you to enjoy your new home. 

Buy/Sell Rental Property

We understand rental property. Are you ready for one? Is it a single family or multifamily unit? Which is better? What am I getting myself into? How much down payment do I need? Is the loan qualification different from purchasing a single family home?
All the above are valid questions or concerns that you may have, we can guide you through it.
