These days its fact that its not hard to get home loans. Either its home equity loan or its mortgage loan and availability of easy home equity loans is in full bloom. These loans are uncomplicated, tenable, easily available, very flexible and tailor-made for homeowners. The best part about all this is that almost every loan lending or financial institution offers them.

Most home buyers have to borrow money in order to purchase their home. Few have enough money sitting in the bank, or in other easily saleable assets, to pay the entire cost of the home at once. (Even those few who do have enough money usually find it financially advantageous – perhaps for extra tax relief — to borrow some of the money.) The home loans they receive is called a mortgage. Generally, a mortgage is a loan of money to the home owner secured by a “lien” on the real estate.

Own house is the dream of every person. For a middle class person, it is considered as a life time achievement as it requires quite a huge amount of money. Banks play a pivotal role in fulfilling this basic need. The products they offer and the services they provide are of immense use to people who intend to have their own house. For a safe and beneficial home loan, proper awareness over the products, policies, terms and conditions of the bank is most important as ignorance may result in more payments to the bank in terms of principal and interest components.

A mortgage is a security document that allows the borrower to keep title of the property while using the property as security or collateral for a loan. The lender then places a lien on the property in the event the owner does not pay the agreed payment. When the borrower pays off the loan, the lender gives the borrower a satisfaction of mortgage that removes the lien from the property. About half the states in the U.S. use mortgage foreclosure as the means of satisfying the loan balance.

Mortgage allows investors to pool money in a trust to lend to individuals and companies. They secure their borrowing by a mortgage over residential or commercial properties. The trust collects the interest paid on these loans and then distributes the interest, less charges, as income to investors.

Borrowers should bear in mind that there are two different kinds of mortgage points-discount points and origination points-and that lenders do not all charge the same amount for these different types of points. Discount points refer to an amount of money paid to a lender to obtain a loan at a specific interest rate. These points are like pre-paid interest on a loan that a borrower takes out for a new home, with each point equalling to 1% of the total principal amount of the loan. Origination points are used to pay for the costs of obtaining the loan in the first place. They are much less popular than discount points, as they do not provide borrowers with any valuable benefits and are not tax deductible. Borrowers are therefore better off trying to get a loan that does not require them to acquire these kinds of points.

    That really depends on your FICO score, get your credit report and if you don’t have a FICO above 700 most banks wont finance you. A good way to go is through a builder, they will finance you directly and obviously the more you put down…20-30% is good…. the more likely you will get financed. other things are considered like length of employment, credit history so make sure your credit report is accurate and worth the trouble.

    If your combined income is 60k you will not get a loan for a 300k house. You just don’t have the income to support it. Even with 20k down, that is still a 280k loan. 20k isn’t even 10% down. How much are you going to be bringing in from your job? With the hubbys income only, I would say you shouldn’t go over 180k for a house. Also, have you been out of the job market for some time? Is the job you just got one in the same field you had previously? The reason I ask is, they like to see steady income or employment for 2 years.

    With just your husbands income it may be possible with an FHA loan. There are a couple of questions though.
    How long has your husband had his current part time job?
    How long and why were you out of work?
    Based on a 30 year fixed FHA loan with a rate of 5.125% and loan amount of $280K you would be looking at an estimated monthly payment of $1,979.57. This number includes estimates for your home owners insurance and property taxes.
    Let me know if you have more questions.
