After your pre-approval appointment, you will know all the important details of your mortgage details such as:

- What your TOTAL (taxes, hazard insurance-fire insurance, mortgage insurance – pmi, mip) PAYMENT will be
- You will know what interest rate you will get on your mortgage loan
- Your home downpayment amount; example 3.5% of FHA loan on a $450,000 home purchase price, will be $15,750 (which can be gifted to buyer)
- You will know your mortgage loan closing cost; approximately 2%-2.5% of the purchase price which many times is about $10,000 (In many, many cases closing cost is paid by the home seller. We can also help you get lender credit to offset “closing cost.” Most of our clients only worry about coming up with downpayment & we work with home seller & lender credit to cover your closing cost.
