I've accepted an offer, how do I begin the loan process?
Once you have accepted an offer, a Mortgage Loans Online loan advisor will contact you regarding the materials necessary to process the loan (e.g., income and asset documentation).
What are the interest rates charged for your loans?
Loan rates are determined by a variety of factors including, but not limited to, the loan product, borrower's credit history, loan amount, loan-to-value ratio of the property, and borrower's income (loan type / property type). Every loan is as unique as its borrower. We recommend you take advantage of our free application process to get some individually tailored rate quotes. There is no cost or obligation.
What causes an adjustable rate mortgage to adjust?
The interest rate of an adjustable rate mortgage (ARM) is linked to a particular index of economic conditions. An index frequently used by Mortgage Loans Online is the six-month London Interbank Offering Rate or LIBOR. This index is the average of interest rates charged by major international banks to borrow U.S. dollars in the London money market. LIBOR is the British equivalent to the U.S. Prime Rate.
The LIBOR index is officially fixed once each day, although changes occur throughout the day. Changes in this index correspond to changes in the interest rate of an adjustable rate loan. Because the interest rate of an ARM is calculated by adding the index plus a "margin" (a pre-set, fixed interest rate established by the lender), a change in the index value will cause a change to the interest rate calculation. The number of times an ARM loan will adjust each year, and the maximum amount it can change, varies per loan. Borrowers are encouraged to consult their Mortgage Loans Online Loan Advisor with any questions regarding the ARM loan adjustment process.
What is negative amortization and how does it occur?
Negative amortization occurs when scheduled monthly mortgage payments are not sufficient to repay the fully scheduled amortized payment (principal and interest) due on the loan and the outstanding balance of the loan grows larger with each payment. Mortgage Loans Online does not offer negative amortization loans.
Can I get loan rates over the phone?
Absolutely. But remember, obtaining a loan program that fits your particular needs is just as important as the loan rate.
