What to Expect When You Mortgage Refinance

Every Mortgage Refinance seems to run into some issues along the way. Something you did not know on your credit report or maybe a problem with the Appraisal. It’s normal and with all the changes to Lending on Palmdale Home Loans, expect it. We discuss some of the most common obstacles to What to Expect When You a Palmdale Refinance below.

Choose Experience over Rate

So you go online a fill out a mortgage refinance inquiry. The phone starts ringing and next thing you know you are sending off your tax returns to someone. They quoted you a low rate-low payment and you felt from the conversation you had to do this immediately or loose out on the monthly payment savings. WRONG!!! Yes rates are low and have shown signs of climbing. But what about that person on the phone- did you question their experience. Last thing you want to do is go thru all this and hit a snag and the inexperience of the loan officer cause months of delays. It happens every day.

The difference in say a quarter of a point in rate is about $12 per month on most loans. Missing out entirely on the refinance could cost you hundreds per month. Make sure you ask exactly what experience they have. How safe are your documents your sending in. Will they service the loan or will it be sold off days after it closes.

A Loan Broker will often tell the Borrower, we are a Direct lender. That makes you think they are something bigger then they are. Actually, a Broker is a middle man who makes a commission on your loan. They usually fund the loan to close it on their Warehouse line of credit and immediately sell it off to get back their funds and profit. It is like paying someone a large fee to go gas up the car for you. It is just fees added to the loan cost that is profit to the middleman.

Deal with the Bank to Save

If your applying to a Bank, usually the Loan Officer is highly supervised and has strict guidelines to follow. That includes the way they handle your personal information you are sending in. In today’s Identity Theft situations, that is very important and worth much more to you.

In the perfect Mortgage Refinance, everything will go as planned. But if it doesn’t, make sure you have an experienced Professional working your loan.
