Information On Mortgage

George Said:

First time mortgage information?

We Answered:

To cover the basics, you should make sure you at least understand these aspects about your mortgage:

1. The principal - Your mortgage principal is simply the amount you are borrowing to buy your house.

2. The type of mortgage - Is it a fixed rate or adjustable rate mortgage? If it is adjustable, when will the first adjustment take place, and could you afford a higher payment if the rates increased?

3. The APR - The best way to understand the overall cost of a mortgage is to look at its annual percentage rate (APR), which takes into account the interest rate and the loan’s other costs.

4. The monthly payment - Make sure you can comfortably make the monthly payments! Also, be sure to ask whether the monthly payment you’re quoted included taxes and insurance. These add to your costs.

Other items to look out for and be informed about are the term of the loan, the discount points, lock-in fees, and closing costs.

If there is anything you are unsure about ask questions! A lender/broker may assume you understand all aspects of the mortgage if you don't ask questions.

I've included a link to a guide for first-time home-buyers. Take a peek at the LendingTree Smart Borrower Center which provides information for any questions on home loans. Good luck with your mortgage process!

Jeffery Said:

Need help with mortgage information?

We Answered:

No, they don't all go by the same rules.

What you want to get is a Good Faith Estimate, which breaks down the closing costs as well as the mortgage terms (interest rate, loan amount, etc)...

Also, your $730 should include property taxes and insurance. Otherwise, this is probably a high interest rate.
