a lot has to happen before you close on a new home successfully. Some of it is your responsibility, and some belong to others. But do not expect that will happen overnight or perfectly smooth. There are too many factors involved. And there's a lot of money riding on the job, too-not all of it yours. So the wisest thing to do is worry about everything at the end, each point "i "and cross every "t" that you can from your end of things
.Also, the picky, picky, picky about who you are dealing with from the get-go, choose only the most experienced, successful professionals and companies that you can find. They have what it takes to long, complicated process much more bearable. For example, if possible, it is a good idea to go with a Texas-based lender, because Texas real estate law, some of which are different from other countries. out-of-state lender can make some wrong assumptions that could add to delays.
For most homebuyers, pre-qualifying for a home loan and signing the contracts are large steps. But that is just beginning the journey to home ownership. And the rest of the trip can sometimes make or break a job. It was during this period that the lender is trying to make a financial package, the title company is doing the necessary research, surveys and estimates have put in motion and orders the inspection homebuyer home and get the insurance company. Everything goes wrong in any of these levels can mean delays or even a broken deal.
As a homebuyer, you need to know that the pre-qualified for a mortgage loan and actually qualifying for it-are two very different things. You also need to know the difference between the two can definitely affect the final day. To get pre-qualified homebuyer must meet with the lender and the relevant information (Social Security number, profits, etc. at hand). Then, after checking your credit score, income and employment, the mortgage lender wrote up a document-based on this preliminary information-that lists how much loan you can qualify for. Remember, this is not a final conclusion or mortgage lending, it's really just the lender's "educated guess", so do not start counting your chickens just yet! As a fact, many lenders these days are encouraging homebuyers to skip the pre-qualification and go directly to the qualifications, before you start looking at home or, in many cases, even before a contract is signed.
This is because the actual qualification process is much, much broader and in-depth. Typically, it involves giving the lender accurate information, W2 forms, bank statements, tax returns, and proof of income. All this goes through lender approval process, which can take a fair amount of time. This is because up-to-date accuracy of the information I have given them is checked and double checked at the moment. So be sure of your facts and figures, as any errors, inconsistencies, credit problems, or misinformation could definitely put a damper on things at this point.
Things homebuyer should know. Or expect. Or not.
* Lenders should give customers a good faith estimate of how much money to get in by a certified check for closing. Closing costs typically run about 3 to 6 percent of the loan amount.
* one day before closing, you have the right to inspect the Uniform Settlement Statement. This itemizes the cost of all services must pay at closing.
* Lender is also responsible for giving you the truth-in-lending statement that states all the details about the cost of the loan.
* The title of the job is researching public records and verify that the buyer and seller have no claim, lien or judgments against them or the property.
* One of the real estate agent's job is to stay in touch with the title company in the research stage, just to make sure that all the problems that could surface without delay. It is important to avoid last minute surprises that could lead to delays in closing.
* Before closing, the smart homebuyer should be inspections on homes and property to make sure that everything is in good condition and no major repairs are required. Repairs could change the price agreed in the contract. homebuyer should be there with the inspector when it's done. Why? Since the inspection report can be 10-12 pages and is full of technical jargon, so be there to ask questions and get explanations on the spot can really help you get a grip on the situation. cost of inspection may vary, it depends on the location of the house, the size of the house, and what is the foundation. By the way, termite inspection should also order a homebuyer before closing. If the inspector is not certified in this area, another inspector would have to be hired.
* Homebuyers are responsible for getting homeowners insurance and have proof of it at closing. Texas Department of Insurance says customers should expect to pay about $ 400 to $ 1,000 a year for insurance, and maybe even more if home is in a flood zone. Most lenders will recommend an escrow account where funds for insurance and property taxes are automatically set aside each month.
* The lender will require hazard and liability insurance for a minimum loan amount. At the closing, you will be expected to pay the first year's premium for this insurance.
* homebuyer should schedule a final walk-through of the House right before closing. It would be a good idea to walk through with your real estate agent. You want to make sure that the house is in a state that has been agreed in the contract. Remember, the closing is done, you are the owner of the home-as it is. You no longer have any legal power to get the seller to fix anything, and the seller no longer has any legal responsibility for it.
* settlement agent-usually a title insurance company is one that is usually the place and time of closing.
