• Employment history, and income (if applicable)
• Assets including your bank accounts, stocks, mutual fund and retirement accounts
• Property value
• Mortgage payment or rental history

To improve your chances of obtaining a loan approval and having a smooth loan process:

• Fill out the loan application completely.
• Respond promptly to any requests for additional documents. This is especially critical if your rate is locked or if you are purchasing a home.
• Do not make any major purchases. Do not buy a car, furniture or open any new credit accounts, including credit cards until your loan is closed. Anything that causes your debts to increase may have an adverse affect on your current loan application.
• Do not move money into your bank accounts unless it can be traced. If you are receiving money as a gift from friends or relatives, please contact us on the proper way to document these funds.
• Do not go out of town around the closing date.

After your loan is approved, you will be required to sign the final loan documents. We will overnight the loan documents to you. You will be required to sign some of the documents in front of a notary public. This can be done in your home, office or nearest title company office. Be prepared to:

PURCHASE ONLY:
Bring cashiers check for your down payment and closing costs to the Escrow Company or Attorney at closing. Personal checks are normally not accepted. The cashiers check is usually made out to the Escrow Company or Attorney processing the transaction.

PURCHASE AND ALL OTHER LOANS:
Bring a driver's license to show the notary public for identification verification.

• Review the final loan documents. Make sure that the interest rate and loan terms are what you were promised. Also, verify that the name and address on the loan documents are accurate.
• Sign the loan documents. Your loan will normally close shortly after you have signed the loan documents for a purchase transaction. With a refinance, home equity loan or second mortgage transaction federal law requires that you have 3 days after signing to review the documents before your loan transaction can close.
