  2. Property factors: appraisal, occupancy, loan-to-value (LTV).
  3. Rate & terms: product fit (fixed vs ARM), points, lock options.
  4. Clear to close: verification, disclosures, and closing documents.

Mortgage FAQs

Clear, direct answers to what borrowers ask most — written for humans, not robots.

  • How much are closing costs?
    Typical buyer closing costs range about 2%–5% of the loan amount (sometimes up to ~6%). You’ll receive an itemized Loan Estimate before you lock.
  • When can I remove PMI on a conventional loan?
    PMI typically drops automatically at 78% LTV. You can request removal at 80% LTV with a clean payment history — a new appraisal can help if your home value has increased.
  • What credit score do I need to buy a home?
    Many programs approve in the mid-600s; some FHA options permit lower. Higher credit often improves rate and mortgage insurance cost.
  • How fast can I get a pre-approval?
    Often same day once we have your key documents. Our secure digital process speeds up review so you can shop with confidence.
  • HELOC vs. Cash-Out Refinance — which is better?
    HELOCs are flexible and interest-only on what you draw; a cash-out refi replaces your first mortgage with a new fixed payment. We’ll model both so you can compare.
