Mortgage Financing Information

Buying a home is known to manyas the American dream.   In most cases,many will pursue the American dream with a mortgage.  A mortgage is a loan in which theproperty your seeking to purchase functions as the collateral. The bank ormortgage lender loans you the money (minus any down payments), which you payback -- with interest -- over a predetermined time frame.   Typical mortgage lengths include 30-year, 15-year,10 year as well as other options offered by various lender types. 

If you have not spoken with a lender and plan to use a mortgage for your home purchase, I encourage you to get pre-approved by talking with a lender and start the loan process.  Taking this first step can help with determining how much to spend and allow you to set a budget.  The result is a preapproval document from your lender that helps your realtor assist you in staying within your financial goals.
