Qualification depends on credit score, income, debts, and down payment. Each loan type has different requirements. We'll review your profile to find the best match.
A conventional loan is not backed by the government. It typically requires good credit and a down payment. These loans offer competitive rates for qualified borrowers.
Yes, FHA loans are popular in Victorville and throughout the county. They allow lower down payments and credit scores. Mortgage insurance is required.
VA loans require no down payment for eligible veterans and service members. They have no mortgage insurance and offer competitive rates. Funding fees may apply.
USDA loans may be available in eligible rural areas of San Bernardino County. They require no down payment for qualified borrowers. Income limits apply based on location.
Jumbo loans exceed conforming loan limits set by federal agencies. They typically require higher credit scores and larger down payments. Rates vary by borrower profile.
Yes, we offer Bank Statement, 1099, and Profit & Loss Statement Loans. These programs use alternative income documentation. Self-employed buyers have multiple options.
Bank Statement Loans use bank deposits to verify income instead of tax returns. Ideal for self-employed borrowers or business owners. Typically require 12-24 months of statements.
DSCR Loans are for investment properties based on rental income. No personal income verification needed. The property's cash flow determines qualification.
Yes, we offer Investor Loans, DSCR Loans, and other investment property programs. Financing is available for single properties or portfolios. Down payments vary by property type.
ITIN Loans are for borrowers without a Social Security number. You use an Individual Taxpayer Identification Number instead. Other qualifying criteria still apply.
Yes, Foreign National Loans help non-U.S. citizens buy property in Victorville. No U.S. credit history required. Larger down payments are typically needed.
Bridge Loans provide short-term financing between property purchases. They help you buy before selling your current home. Terms are typically 6-12 months.
Hard Money Loans are asset-based with faster approval than traditional mortgages. They're secured by property value, not credit. Common for fix-and-flip investors.
Interest-Only Loans allow you to pay just interest for a set period. Principal payments begin after the interest-only term ends. This lowers initial monthly payments.
ARMs have interest rates that change periodically based on market conditions. Initial rates are often lower than fixed-rate mortgages. Rates vary by borrower profile and market conditions.
Fixed rates stay the same for the loan term. ARMs may start lower but can increase. Your choice depends on how long you'll keep the home.
A Home Equity Line of Credit lets you borrow against your home equity. You draw funds as needed up to your limit. Interest rates are typically variable.
Home Equity Loans provide a lump sum with fixed payments. HELOCs work like a credit card with a revolving credit line. Both use your home as collateral.
Asset Depletion Loans qualify you based on assets rather than income. Retirement accounts and investments are used for qualification. Good for retirees with substantial savings.
Yes, reverse mortgages are available for homeowners 62 and older. You receive payments based on home equity. The loan is repaid when you sell or move.
Closing costs typically range from 2-5% of the loan amount. They include appraisal, title, escrow, and lender fees. We provide detailed estimates upfront.
Down payments vary by loan type from 0% to 20% or more. FHA loans require 3.5%, conventional loans often need 3-5%. VA and USDA may require nothing down.
Minimum credit scores vary by loan program, typically 580-620 for government loans. Conventional loans often require 620 or higher. Better scores unlock better rates.
Approval timelines vary from a few days to several weeks. Pre-approval is usually quick, full approval takes longer. We work efficiently to close on time.
A pre-approval letter shows sellers you're a serious, qualified buyer. We verify your finances before issuing it. It strengthens your offer in competitive markets.
Yes, Construction Loans finance building a new home or major renovations. Funds are released in stages as construction progresses. They typically convert to permanent mortgages.
Mortgage insurance protects lenders if you default on the loan. Required for conventional loans with less than 20% down and all FHA loans. Costs vary by loan type.
Conventional loan PMI can be removed once you reach 20% equity. FHA mortgage insurance may last the loan term depending on down payment. Refinancing is another option.
DTI compares your monthly debt payments to gross monthly income. Most lenders prefer 43% or lower, though some programs allow higher. Lower DTI improves approval chances.
Discount points let you buy a lower rate by paying upfront. Each point costs 1% of the loan amount. Makes sense if you'll keep the loan long enough to break even.
Typically you need pay stubs, tax returns, bank statements, and ID. Self-employed borrowers may need additional documentation. Requirements vary by loan program.
Yes, refinancing can lower your rate, change terms, or access equity. We offer rate-and-term and cash-out refinancing. Rates vary by borrower profile and market conditions.
A rate lock guarantees your interest rate for a set period during the loan process. Protects you from rate increases before closing. Lock periods typically range from 30-60 days.
