1 The one time float-down option is available within 30 calendar days of closing when requested by the consumer, but not less than 10 calendar days before closing or expiration date, whichever is earlier. The interest float down rate is based on the 60 day lock rate for the approved Program on the day of the float down request. The deposit will be refunded if: 1) the borrower has submitted a complete loan application along with all required documentation and the loan is denied by WM; or 2) if the program is no longer available at the time the loan closes. The deposit will not be refunded if: 1) the borrower withdraws the application or allows the expiration date to pass; 2) the borrower decides not to proceed with the transaction once the loan has been approved by WM; or 3) the borrower’s file is closed for incompleteness. Programs, rates, terms, and conditions are subject to change at any time. All approvals are subject to underwriting guidelines.
