Choosing a Loan Program

There isn’t a single or simple answer to this question. The right type of mortgage for you depends on many different factors:

  • Your current financial picture
  • How you expect your finances to change
  • How long you intend to keep your house
  • How comfortable you are with your mortgage payment changing

The best way to find the “right” answer is to discuss your finances, plans and financial prospects, and preferences frankly with a mortgage professional.

All seller paid percents are based off the lesser appraised value or sales price. Seller can never pay down payment. • VA loans require termite inspections. VA’s must be paid by the seller. • Occasionally, additional inspections may be required at underwriter’s discretion. • Subject to credit approval.• Conventional loan down payments above assume a transaction for a primary residence on traditional 1 Unit Single Family Home. Down payment requirements increase for Condominiums, Second/Vacation homes and properties with more than 1 unit (i.e. Duplexes, etc.). • Gifts may be an acceptable source of funds for down payment except when the property is non-owner occupied.

Applicants must be 18 years or older in order to apply for a loan.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT PROCEDURES FOR OPENING A NEW ACCOUNT UNDER THE USA PATRIOT ACT OF 2001

To help the government fight the funding of terrorism and money laundering activities, Federal law requires all financial institutions to obtain, verify, and record information that identifies each person who opens an account.

What this means for you: When you open an account, we will ask for your name, address, date of birth, and other information that will allow us to identify you. We may also ask to see a form of identification with your photograph or other identifying documents.
