Episode notes:
- Jeff tells us what you need to know in order to qualify for a loan, do’s and don’t, how much you need for a down payment, where your credit score needs to be….and so much more!
- We talk refinancing - when does it make sense and when doesn’t it? What are some of the key things you need to evaluate to ensure you are making a smart decision?
- Hear some examples of past clients and the mistakes and successes that they experienced through the lending process!
We answered some questions from our Facebook Community!
- Janelle Asks: When should a mortgage be refinanced? At what rate difference is it “worth it” after all of the fees are added in?
- Matt Asks: Dave Ramsey says you don’t need a credit score to buy a house. Is this true? Can someone who has no credit history actually get a loan?
- Amy Asks: How does one go about refinancing in order to pull cash out for a home remodel/renovation? Can you elaborate on this? How much equity needs to be in the home to do a cash out, etc?
- Barbie Asks: Is it worth it to refinance a 15 year mortgage to another 15 year mortgage if the interest rate has dropped 1%? Not to add any more debt, but to lower the payment? (currently 14 years remaining)
- Ian Asks: What type of help can a first time home buyer get? And how do you know when you’re buying too much house for your budget?
