I’ll Take You Through The Process Congratulations! You've decided to start fresh and purchase a new home. This is a very exciting time for you and we look forward to guiding you smoothly through this process, helping you to efficiently find the home of your dreams. As you will see, there are several steps you must take before moving into your new house.

When working with a Coldwell Banker Vanguard® sales associate, you can feel confident your search for a new home will be a success. Let's get started!

1. You’ll have an expert to guide you through the process.

Buying or selling a home usually requires disclosure forms, inspection reports, mortgage documents, insurance policies, deeds, and multi-page settlement statements.

2. Get objective information and opinions.

REALTORS® can provide you with local community information on utilities, zoning, schools, and more.

They'll also be able to provide objective information about each property.

3. Find the best property out there.

Sometimes the property you are seeking is available but not actively advertised. Your REALTOR® will research on your behalf to find all eligible properties.

4. Benefit from their negotiating experience.

There are many negotiating factors, including, but not limited to, price, financing, terms, date of possession, and inclusion or exclusion of repairs, furnishings, or equipment.

5. Property marketing power.

Real estate doesn’t sell by advertising alone. In fact, many real estate sales are the result of a REALTOR'S® contacts through previous clients, referrals, friends, and family.

6. Real estate has its own language.

If you don’t know a CMA from a PUD, you can understand why it’s important to work with a professional who is immersed in the industry and knows the real estate language.

7. Buying and selling is emotional.

A home is not just four walls and a roof - it symbolizes family, rest, and security. Having a concerned yet objective third party helps you stay focused on both the emotional and financial issues most important to you.

8. Ethical treatment.

As a REALTOR® client, you can expect honest and ethical treatment in all transaction-related matters. It is mandatory for REALTORS® to take a Code of Ethics orientation, as well as a refresher course every four years. Providing you with the best service is a top priority.

Frequently Asked Questions How long is the mortgage application process?

It usually takes 45 to 60 days to process an application, although some transactions can take as few as 7 days - or as long as 90. The actual time depends on how quickly the lender can obtain a credit report, verification of employment and bank accounts, and an appraisal of the property.

What documents will I have to provide?

Be prepared to provide verification of income (including a pay stub and recent tax returns), bank account numbers, and details on any long-term debt from credit cards, auto loans, child support, etc. If you are self-employed, you may be required to provide financial statements for your business. In recent years, lenders have been required to obtain more specific information from borrowers in order to package and sell loans to investors.

Could anything delay approval of my loan?

If the lender is provided with complete, accurate information, everything should go smoothly. You may face a delay if the lender discovers credit problems, or if personal or financial status changes occur between the time you submit an application and closing. There may also be delays associated with the appraisal.

What’s included in my house payment?

Principal and interest on your loan. Depending on the terms of your loan, the payment may also include hazard (homeowners) insurance, mortgage insurance, and property taxes.

Can I pay those other things separately?

Not if it’s an FHA or VA-insured loan. With most other loans, you can pay your own taxes and insurance if you borrowed no more than 80% of the purchase price or appraised value of your home. Check with your lender to be sure.

What do the closing costs include?

Closing costs cover processing and administration of your loan. In addition to a loan fee, you’ll usually be asked to prepay interest charges to cover the partial month in which you close.

You may also be required to deposit monies into an escrow account for property taxes, hazard insurance, and mortgage insurance. These are called "reserves".

When do my mortgage payments start?

Usually about 45 to 60 days after closing. The actual date of your first payment will be included in your closing documents.

Before you begin your search for a new home, you need to determine your budget and estimate how much you can afford. One of the most important factors in figuring out your financial budget is getting pre-approved for a mortgage. A mortgage is an advance of money from your lender that covers the finances of your new property. The mortgagee you - must make monthly payments to repay the debt. The monthly payment consists of principal and interest, and is repaid over 15, 20, 30, or 40 years.

This is how most homes are financed.

The Road To Home Ownership

Appropriate documents are recorded at county recorder’s office.

The home is yours!

Unless you're a cash buyer, homes and financing are closely intertwined. Financing is the difference between the purchase price and the down payment, commonly referred to as the mortgage. Of course, a bank will only lend you money if they are sure your credit is strong and feel confident you have the ability to pay them back.

A bank checks your credit by studying your financial history, income, federal tax returns, pay stubs, and long-term debt information (such as credit cards, auto loans, child support, etc.) to determine if you are a good candidate for a loan. If your credit report is good, then you have an excellent chance of obtaining a mortgage. If not, then you must take the appropriate steps to improve your credit rating.

Once you've found the perfect home, your agent will write up the offer. Once the offer is accepted, there are various steps that need to take place before you can close. These include completing a loan application, ensuring your qualification and commitment, completing all inspections, making necessary repairs, surveying and appeasing the property, analyzing the title, receiving an issued title insurance commitment, and securing homeowners insurance. At this time, the sales transaction is finalized, the Disclosure Statement is released, money is exchanged, all paperwork and agreements are signed, and the title of property is transferred.
