Learn more about financing your real estate purchase~

Lenders want your business and will be happy to discuss what sort of loan and loan amount you may be eligible for.  Your lender can usually provide the following for free but will later need documentation to proccess your loan.

Always ask for

1-Good faith estimate-  the lender's estimate of what it will cost for you (the buyer) to close the transaction.  There will be lender fees, an appraisal fee, title insurance, etc, and they collect up-front money to start an impound account for taxes and insurance.
 
2- Estimate of monthly payment with taxes and insurance-  to be sure you are comfortable with what your payment will be.
 

Your lender can usually provide the above for free until later when you are ready to lock in your loan.
