To qualify for your mortgage, your lender will gather financial information about you through:
This also addresses fees and down payments, and you will receive a Good Faith Estimate (GFE) and a Truth-in-lending statement (TIL), itemizing the rates and associated costs of the loan.
You will be asked to provide certain documents to your lender and your lender will order a credit report.
Your file is then submitted to an underwriter for approval.
This takes 24 to 72 hours. You are then notified of the approval and any loan conditions.
