FAQ

Everything you're
wondering, answered.

What is the difference between pre-qualification and pre-approval?

Pre-qualification is a quick estimate based on what you tell us. Pre-approval goes deeper — we review your documents and credit, then issue a letter sellers take seriously. In competitive markets, pre-approval wins offers.

How much do I need for a down payment?

Less than most people think. Conventional loans start at 3% down, FHA at 3.5%, and VA and USDA loans can require 0% down. We will match you to the program that fits your savings.

What credit score do I need?

Conventional loans typically want 620+, FHA can go down to 580 (sometimes lower with more down). If your score needs work, we will give you a clear plan to get there.

Should I choose a fixed or adjustable rate?

Fixed rates never change — simple and predictable. Adjustable rates start lower but can move later. The right choice depends on how long you plan to keep the loan, and we will walk you through the math.

What documents will I need?

Typically: pay stubs, W-2s or tax returns, bank statements, and ID. Self-employed borrowers may need a bit more. We give you a simple checklist up front so nothing stalls your file.

How long does closing take?

Most purchase loans close in 30 days or less from a complete application. We keep your file moving and communicate at every step so there are no last-minute surprises.

What does it cost to work with a broker?

There is no cost to apply or to have us shop lenders for you. Our compensation comes from the lender at closing and is disclosed up front — you always see exactly what you are paying.

Can you help me refinance?

Yes. We run a break-even analysis first — if refinancing does not save you real money, we will tell you. When it does make sense, we handle everything start to finish.
