Understanding your mortgage and financing options is one of the most important parts of buying a home. With the right guidance, you can choose a loan that fits your budget, lifestyle, and long-term goals with confidence.
Step 1: Financial Review
We start by reviewing your income, credit score, savings, and monthly expenses. This helps determine how much home you can comfortably afford without financial stress.
Step 2: Loan Options Explained
You’ll receive clear guidance on available loan programs, including:
Conventional loans
FHA loans
VA loans (if applicable)
Down payment assistance programs
Each option is explained in simple terms so you understand the benefits, requirements, and long-term impact.
Step 3: Pre-Approval
Once you choose the best loan option, your lender issues a pre-approval letter. This strengthens your buying power and shows sellers you are a serious, qualified buyer.
Step 4: Interest Rates & Monthly Payments
We review interest rates, estimated monthly payments, taxes, insurance, and closing costs. This step ensures there are no surprises and that your numbers make sense before making an offer.
Step 5: Loan Application & Documentation
After your offer is accepted, the lender finalizes your loan application. You’ll submit documents such as pay stubs, bank statements, and tax returns. I stay involved to help keep everything moving smoothly.
Step 6: Underwriting & Final Approval
The lender verifies all information and issues final loan approval. Once the loan is clear to close, you’re ready for the final step of homeownership.
Step 7: Closing & Funding
At closing, the loan is funded, ownership transfers, and you officially become a homeowner. Your financing is complete and your mortgage payments begin as scheduled.
