subject: Preparing For The First Mortgage [print this page]


Buying a home has always been a dream for many and will remain to do so for a longer period of time to come. Preparing yourself for a mortgage might take a lot of effort. Here are some of the most important things to consider before you fill an application for a loan. The most important thing around which the whole process of your application acceptance revolves is your credit score. The other most important thing is your source of income.

Let us start with the credit score. Credit scores dont just built up over night. They reflect your paying ability and attitude for the money you owe to others. There are many people who really dont give a damn to a credit score. Well, if you are really serious in getting a loan then think about it this way. A credit score tells the other person how much serious and able you are in paying your loans. The whole history of your borrowings is in front of him. Consider yourself for example. Is there any way you would lend anyone some money without knowing the other person would ever return the money or not? Surely you would never do that unless you are really a generous person. There are some of the things you should keep tight lid on before moving for a loan. These will help you improve and sustain a better credit score. First of all never delay your bills. Always make the payments in time. Always try to meet your all kinds of obligations in time. This gives you an edge in getting a good score in credit ratings. Try to save money and dont waste your money on things which you dont need. This will help you remain away from some unnecessary lending. It is better not to make unnecessary payments through credit cards. Credit cards usually keep compounding themselves and every time you make a payment, they start charging interest unless you get rid of the obligation. Go to the nearest bank and bring out a mortgage application form. Try discussing it with a mortgage sales representative at the bank as well as with some trusted real estate broker. Try to know what the main requisites to qualify for the application are. Note down the requirements and then try to ascertain what requisites you lack.

Once you established the requisites, fulfill all the requirements. Then the second thing is to know what kind of home you want and what is your budget? Always think of the monthly payments and match them with your living expenses as well as with the source of income. Dont try to get burdened under heavy debt. This may land you into serious debt. After this fill the application form and see if there are any other requirements you might need. Submit the application and if you followed the requisites you are sure to submit a successful mortgage application.
