Are you financing a home in AUSTIN? Unlimited LTD can help.

Securing a mortgage loan is one of the more distressing elements of purchasing a house. But it doesn't have to be. I have close business relationships with a lot of mortgage lenders in AUSTIN, and they've helped me recognize some things that can make the process of applying for a loan easy.

1 – Make a list of questions about your loan program

If you do not entirely understand the ins and outs of the different financing options, make sure to have a list of questions with you. I or one of my trusted lenders will be able to assist you in understanding the advantages and disadvantages of each one, because it is hard to know the distinctions between fixed and adjustable rate mortgages.

2 – Decide when to lock

When you lock in a rate, your mortgage lender is guaranteed to commit to the mortgage interest rates for the loan – ordinarily at the time the loan application is submitted. By floating the rate, you can lock the rate at any time between application and issuance of closing documents. Those who opt to float conclude interest rates will dip in the near future.

3 – Determine if you want to pay additional points to decrease your rate

Usually you can choose to pay additional points to lower the rate of your loan. Each point is 1 percent of the loan and is payable in cash at closing. To decide if you should buy points, click here to use our points calculator.
