❓ Does it matter what mortgage company I use?
It really does matter what mortgage company you use. Different banks have different loan programs. Some “big box” banks, major national banks have limited types of loans and may typically qualify only higher FICO score buyers. They often have set closing costs which may not be too competitive. They often do not have programs to help buyers understand what is needed to improve their credit scores. Often they have a limited suite of loans, leaving buyers needing closing cost assistance to look elsewhere for funds.
Many local lenders have programs providing assistance for FHA down payments and closing costs. The lender you use does matter and you need to find a lender who can best serve your needs as a buyer. This is where a knowledgeable Real Estate agent can understand a buyer’s needs and refer them to lenders to identify the best loan program for a given situation. Keller Mortgage isn’t for buyers with credit scores under 600, however, there are lenders and programs available for these buyers. Just like buying a car or clothes, there is no “one size fits all”.

? Getting a Mortgage is only the first step
When buying a home, it is important what lender you use to get a mortgage for your home. And, it is also important to have an experienced real estate agent helping you find that great home. Real estate agents are not created equal! You want an agent who knows the area you want to make your home. It is important that the agent understands market values and helps you make the strongest offer for a property. Even after your offer is accepted for a house, there are still two more critical negotiation points you and your real estate agent will need to address.
The first negotiation after you have an accepted offer is the home inspection and negotiating for any repairs you will ask the seller to make. Also, the second potential negotiation point will be the appraisal. What if the house does not appraise for at least contract value? You want a real estate agent that can help negotiate the right sales price and ensure you get the house of your dreams at the right price!
I have never seen a better traditional loan in the market!
