Frequently asked questions
Which loan option might fit my circumstances?
The appropriate options depend on your finances, goals, property and program eligibility. Start with a conversation rather than choosing a program based on one advertised feature.
How much will I need for a down payment?
That depends on the program, property, borrower and transaction. Ask the team to explain the options and other upfront costs relevant to your situation.
What documents should I prepare?
Common requests include identification, income documentation and account statements. Requirements differ for employed, self-employed and fixed-income borrowers. See Homebuyer Resources for general examples.
How long does the mortgage process take?
Timing depends on the transaction, document completeness, property requirements, underwriting and closing conditions. The team can discuss the expected process for your situation.
