Use the mortgage payment calculator available through Realty Connect USA to estimate your monthly costs. It accounts for the home’s sale price, loan term, down payment percentage, interest rate, private mortgage insurance (if applicable), and local property taxes to give you a comprehensive estimate.

Lenders use your debt-to-income ratio to determine the portion of your pre-tax income that goes toward debt payments. This includes monthly housing costs, car loans, credit cards, student loans, and other installment debts. Taking on additional debt before buying can reduce the loan amount you qualify for.

If you don’t have a lender, Fran can connect you with trusted mortgage specialists. She helps you stay informed throughout the loan process, from pre-approval to final closing, ensuring you understand fees, down payment options, and documentation requirements.

After finding a property, your lender assists with completing the mortgage application and explains fees and down payment options. The application is processed with document review, appraisals, and title examinations. Then an underwriter reviews the loan for compliance and approval.

After loan approval, you need to arrange homeowners insurance. Your loan documents are sent to the title company where you’ll sign paperwork and pay any remaining costs. The loan is then recorded, and you receive the keys to your new home. Congratulations on becoming a homeowner!
