Have Questions About Home Financing?
We’ve Got Answers!
Here are some of the most common mortgage-related questions we receive.
1. How much should I save for a down payment?
It depends on the loan type—conventional loans typically require 5-20%, while FHA and VA loans require less.
2. What’s the difference between pre-qualification and pre-approval?
Pre-qualification is an estimate, while pre-approval means a lender has verified your financials.
3. How does my credit score affect my mortgage rate?
Higher credit scores usually mean lower interest rates. Aim for 700+ for the best terms.
4. Can I buy a home while still paying off student loans?
Yes! Lenders consider your debt-to-income ratio when approving loans.
5. How do I lock in a mortgage rate?
Once pre-approved, you can lock in your rate with a lender to protect against market changes.
