Get pre-qualified Start the application process Gather the necessary documentation Determine the value of the property Underwriting of your loan You are approved Close on your home You can start the mortgage process as soon as you decide that you want to buy a home. Together, with one of our Mortgage Bankers, we’ll evaluate your financial situation and find the best solution to fit your needs. Starting the pre-qualification process will help you focus your search on homes that you can comfortably afford. Once you have an accepted written offer (also known as a purchase agreement or contract) on your home in hand, it is time to apply for your mortgage and really get the home loan process underway. You can do that in person, or online. Our Mortgage Bankers will request specific documentation and will work with you to complete a loan application. Upon review, the Mortgage Banker can lock in your rate with your permission. In the appraisal stage a licensed third-party appraiser will estimate the value of the home you are looking to purchase. This is meant to insure the home is worth the price being offered. Our Mortgage Bankers are underwriting professionals, and will carefully go through all documents and verify the information is accurate and up-to-date. It’s their job to make sure all the necessary information is included and every i is dotted and t is crossed. You might be required to submit more documentation, depending on your specific loan requirement. After the loan has been approved by underwriting and the appraisal has been confirmed to be sufficient, you are approved. The approval you receive at this stage is conditional and assumes that nothing significant will change between now and the time we fund your loan. So, remember, no major purchases and no radical or extreme life changes. Congratulations! You’ve officially gained our clear to close. This means your mortgage loan has been fully approved and final documents are ready to be prepared. Your trusted team of Mortgage Bankers will schedule a date and time based off of the purchase contract. During the closing, you will sign the final loan documents and then funding will soon be available to you.
