How Much Home Can You Afford?
The amount of money you pay on your mortgage each month depends on more
than just the amount of your loan. The interest rate and term of loan must
also be considered. Additionally, you should also include homeowners fees
such as taxes, insurance and homeowner association fees (HOA's)
to get a more accurate estimate* of what you total house payment will be.

Pre-Qualifying for a Loan
Getting pre-qualified for a home loan is an essential part of the home
buying process. It helps prevent you from looking at and falling in
love with properties that you simply can't afford.
The pre-qualification process
is relatively painless and can be done over the phone in about 10-minutes
with reputable mortgage loan officer. Be prepared to be open and honest
about your financial situation and provide complete information.
Once you decide to apply for a home loan, this is the information you will
need to get together for your loan application:
1.
W-2's for the past 2 years
2. Most recent paycheck stubs covering
the last 30 days
3. Residence addresses for the past
2 years
4. Names & addresses of each employer
for the past 2 years
5. Last 2
months bank statements for all checking/savings accounts
6. Names, addresses, account #'s &
monthly payments on all open loans
7. Addresses of any other real estate
owned
8. Loan information on all real estate
owned
9. Money for credit report and
appraisal
10. Landlord names and addresses -
past 2 years
11. FHA loans: Photo ID and Social
Security card
