Before you apply
Start with the questions buyers and homeowners bring to a first mortgage conversation.
Browse the mortgage FAQA mortgage broker helps you compare loans from lenders they work with. The broker can explain loan terms and help prepare your application. The lender reviews the application and makes the approval decision.
Compare the loan type and term, interest rate, total monthly payment, closing costs, and estimated cash to close. Once you have written Loan Estimates, use the CFPB’s Loan Estimate guide to compare them side by side.
