Obtain Loan Approval

Once your loan application has been received, we will start the loan approval process immediately. This involves verifying your:

• Credit history
• Employment history
• Assets including your bank accounts, stocks, mutual fund and retirement accounts
• Property value
• Based on your specific situation, additional documents or verifications may be required.

To improve your chances of getting a loan approval:

• Respond promptly to any requests for additional documents. This is especially critical if your rate is locked or if you plan to close by a certain date.
• Do not make any major purchases. Do not buy a car, furniture or another house till your loan is closed.
• Anything that causes your debts to increase might have an adverse affect on your current application.
• Do not move money into your bank accounts unless it can be traced. If you are receiving money from friends, family or other relatives, please contact us.
• Do not go out of town around the closing date. If you do plan to be out of town when your loan is expected to close, you may sign a power of attorney, to authorize another individual to sign on your behalf.
• Notify me or my team before applying for any other credit, including credit cards, personal loans or even with another mortgage company. Some loan programs have strict guidelines regarding your credit score. Credit inquiries may lower your credit score and may have an adverse affect on your loan approval.
