Tips for Getting Your Home Loan Approved
ome Loan Tip #1 Pay Your Bills It is very important that you
always pay your bills on time and never miss a payment. When you
have this type of history paying bills your mortgage lender will
believe you will be just as responsible with your home loan. If
you want to be approved for a home loan, be sure you are current
on all your payments and have been making them regularly for
some time before you apply for a home loan.
Home Loan Tip #2 Employment History In general, when an
individual has been employed in the same job for at least two
years, or at least the same type of job for that amount of time,
a home loan approval is more likely. So, if you have been in
your same job for a year and a half and are considering quitting
or changing jobs, but are also looking at buying a house, wait
until your home loan is approved before you make any changes.
Once you have your home loan, you can make any changes.
Home Loan Tip #3 Pay Debt Down Your debt to income ratio is
considered when you apply for a home loan. If you really want to
be approved for a home loan then you need to make sure you pay
off as many debts as possible in order to look favorable to the
home loan lenders. A home loan is approved for individuals who
have a low debt to income ratio.
Home Loan Tip #4 Savings Before applying for a home loan, make
sure you have saved at least 20% of the down payment and also
have enough money to cover several months of your home loan
payment. When you have enough money in savings to cover you if
you experience financial difficulty one month or even two or
three then the lender will be more likely to approve your home
loan.
