4 Real Estate Review November 2010
PREAPPROVALIf you think homeownership is for you, getting pre-approved for amortgage is a good idea. This determines the size of the mortgageyou qualify for, and therefore, decides the price range for the homesyou can look at.
Pre-approval helps you to:
• Know how much you can borrow.• Confirm your ability to qualify for a mortgagebased on your credit, financial and employmentinformation.
• Strengthen your position to make an offer on a house.A seller will be more willing to accept an offer if the buyer ispre-approved.
To become pre-approved, you'll need to work with a mortgagelender. The mortgage lender will review your credit history, earningsinformation, employment history and assets. You will need toprovide certain documents to the lender to verify this information.
After the review, the lender will give you a "pre-approval letter." Thepre-approval letter tells home sellers that you have the ability toqualify for a certain mortgage amount.
A pre-approval letter tells home sellers that you have the ability toqualify for a mortgage.
Getting pre-approved is not the same thing as getting pre-qualified.Pre-qualification simply states that the borrower qualifies for a loanbased on some preliminary questions but does not commit themortgage lender to approve the mortgage. The mortgage lender willstill have to conduct a complete review of your financial situation,including your credit report and your income and employmenthistory.
The pre-approval processis more thorough. Thelender does most of thework for full approvalexcept for an appraisaland title search becausethere is no propertyidentified to buy.

DOWN PAYMENTAND CLOSING COSTS
DOWN PAYMENTSYour down payment is a percentage of the value of the house you want
to buy. The exact percentage depends on the requirements of the lender for thetype of mortgage you choose. In order to qualify for most mortgages you will need adown payment between 3-20% of the price of the house.
Closing costs usually range from 2-7% of the property value.
You may be required to have private mortgage insurance (PMI) if your down paymentis less than 20%. Private mortgage insurance protects the lender if the mortgagegoes into default.
CLOSING COSTSYou will need additional money for closingcosts. These costs vary by region butgenerally range between 2-7% of theproperty value.
Closing costs include points, originationfees, taxes, title insurance, financing costsand items that must be prepaid or escrowed and othercosts. You will receive a written estimate of these costsfrom your lender after you apply for the mortgage.
9Real Estate ReviewNovember 2010
BEGIN WITH YOURCREDIT REPORT
When you look for a mortgage, lenders will review your credit report. Your creditreport is a history of how you have managed your finances and repaid debt. Itprovides information on money you have borrowed and a history of yourpayments.
Your credit history is pulled together into a credit report by three privatecompanies: Equifax, Experian and Trans Union. These companies sell yourcredit report to banks and other creditors so they can review mortgage and loanapplications.
Your credit report includes:
• A list of debts, such as credit cards and car loans, and a history of howyou have paid them.
• Any bills that have been referred to a collection agency. This caninclude items like phone and medical bills.
• Public record information, such as tax liens or bankruptcies, even ifthese have happened several years ago.
• Inquiries made about your creditworthiness. An inquiry is madewhen you request credit. Many times your report will also show ifyou were given credit based on the inquiry.
Most of the information in your creditreport is deleted after 7 years (a bankruptcyis deleted after 10 years) and is continuouslyupdated to reflect the latest information.
Your credit report is a history of howyou have managed your finances and
repaid debt.
If you would like to receive a copy of your credit report, contact oneor all three of these credit reporting agencies.

HOUSEHUNTINGHINTS
Shopping for a home can be a little overwhelming.You might forget one house from the next.You may get frustrated that you haven’t foundyour dream home or get so excited you forget tofocus on your wants and needs.
Here are some tips for house hunting:• Carry a camera, take photos of the house.• Bring a “Home Visit Worksheet” and take notes on the house.• Don’t make spur of the moment decisions. Selecting a home is a decision that takes time.• Review your notes, and compare houses against your wants, needs and budget.• Bring your spouse, a family member or friend. It’s useful to get their feedback.• Find out utility and maintenance costs. Ask the owners or ask your real estate professional to find out.

HOW MUCH CAN IAFFORD TO SPEND?
For a general idea of your buying power, multiply your annual grossincome by 2½. For example, if you had a household income of $50,000,you might be able to qualify for a $125,000 home. The actual number maybe more or less, depending upon your individual situation, debts and credithistory.
You need to decide for yourself if you canlive comfortably with the amount of yoursuggested monthly mortgage payment.
However, mortgage lenders generally usetwo ratios to help determine how much youcan afford to spend each month on yourmortgage payment.
HOUSING EXPENSE RATIO
As a general guide your monthly mortgage payment should be less than orequal to a percentage of your income, usually about a quarter of your grossmonthly income. The percentage can change depending on the type ofmortgage you choose. However, there are mortgage productsavailable that focus solely on the debt-to-income ratio. Yourlender can provide more information on these types ofmortgage products.
DEBT-TO-INCOME
Debt-to-Income Ratio is the percentage of gross monthly income that goestoward paying for your monthly housing expense, installment debts, alimony,child support, car payments, and payments on revolving or open-endedaccounts such as credit cards.
Your buying power can be affected by factors such as your income, debt andcredit history. Your debt, such as credit card bills and car loans, and otherexpenses such as housing expenses, alimony and child support, should not bemore than about 30-40% of your gross income.
Some helpful hints...❖ Set a budget with your estimated mortgage payment. Make sure to includetaxes and insurance in your estimated payments.
❖ Remember your housing budget should include utilitycosts and a set amount for future home maintenance
and repair costs.
❖ Make sure you can meet your other financialgoals, such as saving for retirement and payingfor college tuition.
❖ Once you review your finances, select a mortgage amount thatallows you to reasonably meet your long-term goals and needs.

WANTS VERSUS NEEDSBefore you begin house hunting, create a realistic "shopping list" to narrowyour search and give you an overview of different properties. Looking for ahome can take time, especially if you have not focused on what is mostimportant.
Create a "wish list" and a "must have" list. Many people focus more on "wants"than "needs." As a result, they sometimes reject homes that perfectly meettheir needs in search of homes that meet their wants. That's not to say thatyou shouldn't try to get what you want – you should just be able to tell thedifference between what you really need and what you would like to have.
The following is a chart to help guide you in your search:

(ARA)—Moving to a new community can be a great adventure, if you go with the right attitudeand a sound strategy for settling in. Make an action plan and you’ll stay focused, organized andproactive—just what’s needed to put roots down fast.
Before You Go• Complete a change of address form withthe post office, which can be done online atUSPS.com. You’ll also want to send your newaddress to any publications you subscribe to.
• Make initial contact with childcare facilities.Depending on the area you move to, you mayneed to put your name on a waiting list.
• If possible, enroll your children in school.Firm plans will reduce the stress.
• Pack a box with essentials for your firstfew nights, such as prescription medicine,toiletries, a telephone, clothing, towels, toilet paper and bed linen.
• You’ll also want to make arrangements to have utilities transferred to your name or turned on.
Upon Arrival• For safety and peace of mind, change the locks.• Locate emergency services -- police and fire stations and the closest hospital.• Hang drapes or curtains to give you some privacy.• Select one room, perhaps the family room, as a place of refuge. Make it a cozy space, freeof unpacked boxes, empty cartons or anything else move-related.
• Stock the fridge with prepared entrees and the makings for no-fuss meals.
The First Week• Check with the post office to see if they are holding mail for you. Finish sending out changeof address to credit card companies, clubs, associations, friends and family.
• File away all documents related to the move. You’ll need them for verification of movingexpenses at tax time.
• Call your waste removal company or department of sanitation for a trash collection schedule.• Update your driver’s license and transfer the vehicle registration.• Register to vote.• Take a tour of your neighborhood to become familiar with your new surroundings. Learn theroutes to work, school, grocers, etc.
Help Your Children Adjust• Maintain family routines. Kids will appreciate the continuity of family life.• Involve the kids. Allow them to select new furnishings or decorate their rooms.• Visit the local playground.• Try to be home when the children return from their first day at school. Kids feel reassured whena parent is there to hear about their day.
Get Involved in the Community• Spend time outdoors. Neighbors may greet you and come by for sidewalk chats.• Walk your dog in an area where you see other dog owners congregating.• Schedule an after-work coffee or dessert hour. Invite neighbors to drop by.• Choose a place to worship and get involved; consider doing volunteer work.• Select professional service providers such as doctor, dentist and financial and/or tax advisor.• Join a club or take up activities you enjoyed before the move.• Take a job-related class to develop new professional contacts and update skills.
Don’t hesitate to contact local financial and real estate professionals for more ideas or informationabout your new community. By re-establishing daily patterns and developing ties soon afterarrival, your new environment will feel like home in no time.
