Frequently Asked Questions
Answers to common questions about working with Carla Closes.
What is pre-approval and why do I need it?
Pre-approval determines how much you can likely borrow based on a review of your finances. It strengthens your offer when buying a home and shows sellers you’re a serious buyer.
How much down payment do I need?
Down payment requirements vary significantly by loan program. Some options like VA or USDA loans may require 0% down, while FHA loans often require 3.5%. Conventional loans can range from 3% to 20% or more. We’ll explore the best options for your situation.
What are closing costs?
Closing costs are fees associated with finalizing your mortgage, typically including appraisal fees, title insurance, recording fees, and lender charges. They usually range from 2% to 5% of the loan amount.
How long does the mortgage process take?
The timeline can vary, but typically it takes 30-60 days from application to closing. Factors like loan type, appraisal timing, and responsiveness affect the speed. We work efficiently to keep things moving.
