Loan Program Fit

Which mortgage program is right for your situation?

Not all mortgages are created equal, and the right loan for your neighbor might not be the right one for you. Whether you're a first-time buyer, refinancing an existing loan, or looking to tap into your home's equity, loan programs vary in how they handle rates, terms, down payments, and flexibility. Some borrowers benefit from fixed-rate stability; others find adjustable options make sense for their timeline. Some qualify for programs designed specifically for their situation—first-time buyer programs, portfolio loans, or options that work with lower credit scores or non-traditional income. The wrong program can mean higher payments or unnecessary restrictions. The right one can save you money and stress. If you're unsure which option fits your goals, I'm here to walk through the choices with you.

Let's talk about which program makes the most sense for where you are right now.

Tip of the Week

Closing costs typically run 2-5% of the loan amount. Ask your lender for a Loan Estimate so there are no surprises.

Tips for Homeowners

Protecting Yourself from Mortgage Scams

1.

Wire fraud is one of the fastest-growing real estate scams. Never wire closing funds based solely on email instructions — always verify account numbers by calling your title company at a number you look up yourself.

2.

Loan modification and foreclosure rescue scams target homeowners in distress. Legitimate help is available free through HUD-approved counseling agencies at 800-569-4287.

3.

Be wary of unsolicited offers to refinance or cash out equity at terms that sound unusually favorable. If someone contacts you out of the blue, verify their NMLS license number at nmlsconsumeraccess.org.
