CHOOSE THE RIGHT MORTGAGE

Fixed Rate Mortgage

A Fixed Rate (Conventional) Mortgage has monthly principal and interest payments that remain the same throughout the life of the loan (unless property taxes, insurance premiums or homeowners/condo association fees change). It is recommended for those that do not want their loan to fluctuate with market rates.

Adjustable Rate Mortgage (ARM)

An ARM has an interest rate that can change at designated intervals throughout the life of the loan. These rate changes are based on a financial index, and when these changes occur your monthly payment may increase or decrease. Most ARMs will have a lower interest rate than a Fixed Rate Mortgage. An ARM is recommended for those who want to take advantage of lower initial payments, those that expect to move before any rate increases, or for those who expect their income to rise.

Step 1

PREPARE FOR YOUR ADVENTURE

Save for a Down Payment

A down payment is the difference between the purchase price of the property and the mortgage loan amount. It is deducted from the total amount of your Mortgage and represents the equity or your ownership in the house. Down payment requirements vary depending on the type of Mortgage. For many shoppers, saving up a 20% down payment is not easy, but it can have many financial benefits and save you thousands of dollars in the long run. MHV offers financing options up to 97%.

Get Prepared: Set up an automated savings plan to make it easier to build toward your down payment goal. Automate savings by taking a portion of your paycheck and having it directly deposited into your savings account.

Credit Score

Your credit score is a mathematical assessment of the likelihood you will repay what you borrow. It is based on the information in your credit report, which tracks how well you pay and manage bills. Creditors typically check your score when deciding whether or not to approve your loan application. Scores range from 300 to 850, with a higher score being indicative of less risk.

Get Prepared: We recommend you check your credit report before applying for your Mortgage by visiting www.annualcreditreport.com.

Bonus: Your membership includes complimentary access to Financial Counselors that can review your credit report as well as answer questions about credit scoring, building a strong credit history and correcting any inaccuracies that appear. To speak with a counselor, call toll-free 888.456.2227.

STEP 5

FINAL WALKTHROUGH & CLOSING

 

Before closing, it is recommended that you do a final walkthrough of the home to ensure its condition has not changed and that any features that were supposed to be included in the sale are still in place. On the closing day, the Mortgage is finalized and the title of the house is transferred to you.

Here are some tips:

Ask questions until you feel comfortable with everything.

Determine who will conduct
your closing, the location,
time and date.

Ask the person who will conduct
your closing what to expect
at closing.

Ensure you’ve received your
Closing Disclosure three business
days before closing.

Arrange your payment for the
amount due at closing via wire
transfer or bank check.

Confirm how your property taxes
and homeowner’s insurance will
be paid each year.


Take all the time you need. You have a right to read and understand your closing documents, no matter how long it takes.
