Depending on your home-ownership goals, there are several options for first-time home buyer loans Some examples include Federal Housing Administration (FHA), Veterans Affairs (VA) and United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) loans, which allow for low to zero down payments for qualified buyers. Conventional loans are another option, and you could qualify with a credit score as low as 620 but you’ll need a more substantial down payment (up to 20% depending on your situation). It’s important to consider the benefits of different loan options before deciding which one is right for you.
To qualify for mortgage loans that are best suited for first-time home buyers, there are general requirements that can include:
Your mortgage loan officer can work with you to see if you qualify for any first-time home buyer loans
If you have not owned a home in the last three years, you may be eligible to apply for a first-time home buyer loan and down payment assistance. The requirements for each loan type vary, but they typically are based on your credit score and down payment amount. Contact your mortgage loan officer to see if you qualify.
A Veterans Affairs (VA) loan is a home mortgage that’s backed by the Department of Veterans Affairs. To be eligible for a VA loan, you must be an active-duty service member, veteran or eligible surviving spouse. A VA home loan requires little or no money down at closing, and even with no down payment, mortgage insurance is not required.
Veterans Affairs (VA) loans are available to active-duty service members, veterans and eligible surviving spouses. A Certificate of Eligibility from the VA is required to show whether you qualify based on your service history and duty status. Your mortgage loan officer will work with you to obtain the Certificate of Eligibility and can help you better understand how VA loans work.
Veterans Affairs (VA) loans are available to active-duty service members and veterans who have served at least 90 days of consecutive service during wartime or 181 days during peacetime. National Guard members and reservists are eligible for a VA loan after six years of service or 181 days of active-duty service. Eligible surviving spouses may also qualify. For more information on how to apply for a VA home loan, contact your mortgage loan officer.
There are several ways active-duty service members, veterans and eligible surviving spouses can take advantage of a Veterans Affairs (VA) loan more than once. Here are some ways you may be eligible for another VA loan:
For more information on VA loans, speak with your mortgage loan officer.
A fixed-rate loan is one of the most common types of home loans. Benefits include a consistent rate, predictable monthly principal and interest payments and a flexible down payment. If you have good credit and a low debt-to-income ratio (the ratio of total monthly debt payments – not including utilities, cell phone or cable service – compared to gross monthly income), a conventional fixed-rate loan may be a good option for you.
A fixed-rate loan is a type of loan that comes with an interest rate that won't change for the life of the loan. Check out today’s rates for a conventional fixed-rate loan or compare mortgage rates for a variety of loan options. Connect with your mortgage loan officer to learn more about how fixed-rate loans work.
Monthly principal and interest payments on a conventional fixed-rate mortgage remain the same for the life of the loan, making it an attractive option for those who plan to stay in their home for several years. With an adjustable-rate mortgage (ARM) the interest rate may change periodically, based on a pre-determined index, for example the U.S. Treasury, and margin set by the bank. The initial interest rate is fixed for a set period, typically three to 10 years depending on the loan product, and then becomes variable. An increase or decrease depends on the market conditions at the time of the conversion to the variable rate and during the adjustment period thereafter. This may be a good option for those who plan on moving within a few years. Consider the benefits of each to determine which makes the most sense for your situation.
A jumbo loan is a non-conforming loan for single-family homes with loan amounts greater than $726,200. In certain high cost areas, such as Alaska and Hawaii, the conforming limit is up to $1,089,300. To qualify for a jumbo mortgage loan, you must meet the established guidelines for credit score, income and other personal financial information.
Jumbo loans are mortgages that exceed conforming loan limits. The limit on conforming loans is $726,200 in most areas of the country, but jumbo mortgages can exceed these limits. The limit can be as high as $1,089,300 in certain high cost areas, including Alaska and Hawaii.
A VA jumbo loan is a Veterans Affairs (VA) loan that exceeds the conforming loan limit of $726,200 and up to $1,089,300 in high-cost areas such as Alaska and Hawaii. If you’re an active-duty service member, veteran or eligible surviving spouse, and you meet the income and credit requirements, a VA jumbo loan could be an option for you.
An adjustable-rate mortgage (ARM) is a home loan with an interest rate that adjusts throughout the life of the loan based on the market. The initial set rate period is typically three to 10 years. After the introductory rate term expires, the estimated payment and rate may change. An increase or decrease depends on the market conditions at the time of the conversion to the variable rate and during the adjustment period thereafter. An ARM loan could be a good option if you plan to sell within a few years.
With an adjustable-rate mortgage (ARM) loan the initial interest rate is fixed for a set period and then becomes variable, adjusting every year for the remaining life of the loan. For example, a 10/1 ARM has a fixed rate for the first 10 years and an adjustable rate for the remaining duration of the loan. To learn more about how ARM loans work, connect with your mortgage loan officer.
Yes, as with most any existing mortgage loans, an existing ARM loan can be refinanced upon credit approval. There are several potential benefits to refinancing a mortgage , such as changing terms, lowering monthly payments, getting access to cash for major purchases and reducing your interest rate. Your mortgage loan officer can help you find the right choice for your needs.
