Filling out an application is actually the beginning of the formal loan process and usually occurs after you have found a property you want to buy or have determined that you wish to refinance the loan on your existing home. With the help of Janet and her team, you will complete a mortgage application for a particular loan program, along with supplying all of the required documentation for processing. You will discuss various fees, rate and down payment options at this time. You will be provided with a package of initial disclosures that will outline your rights and obligations in the loan process.

Processing Your Loan Application |

Janet’s loan processors reviews the credit reports and documentation that you supplied as part of your loan application to verify your income, assets, employment, debts, and payment histories.
If necessary we may contact your employer and bank directly to verify your relationship with them. If the credit report indicates unacceptable late payments, collections or judgments or other credit history issues, then we will request a written explanation from you. If these are incorrect entries on your credit report, we will work with you to get them removed.
