Great Mortgage Misconception
I remember how anxious I was when I applied for my first mortgage. I liked the house and did not want to loose. Would the lender accept me? Was my credit score good enough? Don’t be like me or others. You can find out very easily if your credit score is good enough. You can check the lending criteria to see if you qualify.
What I am trying to say here is that it is one mortgage for us, but it is a business for the mortgage companies. They have to sell mortgages to make their business work. You see these people employed by the banks and lenders with fancy titles of bank manager, loan manager and mortgage adviser. The bottom line is that those people are just a salesperson not much different than the car salesman. They have to sell loans to keep their job. There is a serious competition among the lenders and that can only be good for us the borrowers. As I said you will not be getting home mortgage loans everyday in your life, however you will be paying for that loan for a long time to come. Find out more about your options, shop around for the best terms available to you.
First thing you need to find out is about you. What is your credit score? How much you can borrow with the income level you have? Is there ways to improve your acceptability? There may be something in your credit record that should not have been there and you may be able to improve your score by removing it. Another great way of improving your chances of getting mortgage is sorting out your bank statements. Probably the first thing they will look at is your last six months bank statements. So you need to start thinking and working well in advance of your mortgage application. Do not miss any payment or make any questionable transaction. Keep it very simple, clean and organised.
Don’t get me wrong here; you can not qualify for every mortgage offer that is available. Some mortgage offers are out there to get the customers in the door and they will be quick to tell you that you do not qualify for it. Stay realistic and go after the best mortgage you can get (that is not the same as best mortgage offer available by a bank). Remember no one likes a rejection and it is not good for your credit score. Go after the available loans that you can get. Never give the feeling to the loan manager that you are in the bag. Make him think what else he can offer to lock you in. To get more, you need to ask more. Do not worry. In worst case, you will get a confirmation that you have been offered the best refinance mortgage available by this company.
