One of the many advantages we offer at The Richard Woodward Team is access to over 200 national lenders. This extensive network means we can offer wholesale rates often not directly available to consumers. Think of it as having VIP access to the mortgage world. We also offer a significant savings as we don’t have underwriting and processing fees like most lenders, banks, and credit unions. That alone saves most homebuyers about $1495 and reduces your amount needed for closing.
Now, let’s break down your mortgage options:
- Conventional 3% Down Mortgage: An excellent choice for first-time homebuyers, this mortgage type requires only a 3% down payment and typically involves less red tape than government-backed loans. It offers the stability of fixed payments and can often be a cost-effective choice over the long term. Additionally, if your income is within 80% of the area average income, you can get additional savings and possibly closing cost cash assistance.
- USDA Mortgages: These loans, backed by the United States Department of Agriculture, are designed for buyers looking to purchase homes in eligible rural and suburban areas. They offer attractive benefits such as low-interest rates, zero down payment requirements, and lower mortgage insurance premiums.
- FHA Loans: Backed by the Federal Housing Administration, these loans are ideal for first-time buyers or those with lower credit scores or even no scores at all. They offer lower down payments of 3.5% of the purchase price and more flexible qualification requirements. We can even offer a 100% financing option for some FHA buyers.
- VA Loans: For our military heroes. Thank you for your service! If you’re a military veteran or active service member, this could be a perfect choice. VA loans, backed by the Department of Veterans Affairs, often require no down payment and offer competitive rates.
- Jumbo Loans: When you have big dreams, go big! If you’re eyeing a high-priced property, a jumbo loan could be your route. These mortgages exceed the limits set by the Federal Housing Finance Agency, allowing you to finance more expensive homes.
- Down Payment Assistance Programs: Need help with that initial payment? We’ve got information on programs that can assist. There are numerous local and national programs designed to help home buyers with their down payments and closing costs. These programs often provide grants or low-interest loans to eligible buyers, making homeownership more accessible.
