Frequently Asked Questions
No, there is no fee for completing our application.
The interest rate is the cost to borrow money disbursed in the loan. The APR is a calculated rate that not only includes the interest rate, but also takes into account other lender fees required to finance the loan.
Yes, when you apply for a loan in advance, we issue a prequalification letter subject to you finding your new home. You can use the prequalification letter to assure real estate brokers and sellers that you are a qualified buyer. The prequalification process helps assure that you are looking in the right price range to comfortably fit your budget. Having been prequalified for a mortgage may also give more weight to any offer you make. When you find the perfect home, contact one of our loan officers or click here to get started on your application.
The maximum percentage of your home’s value depends on the purpose of your loan, how you use the property, and the loan type you choose. The best way to determine what loan amount we can offer is to complete our online application.
Closing costs include items like appraisal fees, title insurance fees, attorney fees, prepaid interest, and documentation fees – to name a few. These items are usually different for each customer due to differences in the type of mortgage, the property location and other factors. You will receive a Loan Estimate of your closing costs prior to your closing for review.
An escrow account requires borrowers to make monthly payments toward real estate taxes and/or home-related insurance as part of the regular monthly mortgage payment. Bills for the taxes and/or insurance are sent directly to the lender who makes the required payments on your behalf. Webster Five may not require an escrow account in all cases.
A rate lock gives you protection from financial market fluctuations that could affect your interest rate. You can choose to lock or not lock (float) your interest rate. On the date and time that you lock, that interest rate remains available to you for a set period of time. If you choose to float your interest rate, your rate will fluctuate with the up and down movements of the financial market. You must lock your rate at least seven business days prior to closing.
