What California Home Loan Program Should I Choose?

There really isn't a single or simple answer to this question on how to choose the best loan program for you and your family. The right type of California home mortgage loan for you depends on many different factors, which includes some of the following:
  • Your current financial picture.
  • How you expect your finances to change.
  • How long you intend to keep your house.
  • How comfortable you are with your mortgage payment changing.

For example, a 15-year fixed rate mortgage can save you many thousands of dollars in interest payments over the life of the loan, but your monthly payments will be higher. An adjustable rate mortgage may get you started with a lower monthly payment than a fixed rate mortgage -- but your payments could get higher when the interest rate changes.

The best way to find the "right" answer is to discuss your finances, your short-term and long-term plans, your financial prospects, and your preferences truthfully and honestly with a California home loan mortgage expert from FindMyRate.com. We will help you make the right decision!

  • Stated Income Loans - Type of mortgage where the lender verifies the source of the income but not the amount.

  • Interest Only Mortgages - A mortgage where the amount borrowed is not repaid until the end of the term of the loan. Repayments consist of interest, fees and charges. Our interest-only mortgage products are designed to give homeowners and homebuyers lower monthly payments. For homebuyers, low interest-only mortgage payments means lowered monthly payments and/or the ability to purchase "more house".

  • Fixed Rate Mortgages - Mortgages in which the interest rate is set for the term of the loan.

  • Adjustable Rate Mortgage (ARM) Mortgages - Mortgage loans under which the interest rate is periodically adjusted to more closely coincide with current rates. The amounts and times of adjustment are agreed to at the inception of the loan.

  • FHA/VA Loans - Government insured/guaranteed long-term, fixed-rate and adjustable loans for homeowners who qualify.

  • Conforming Loans - Mortgage loans up to $350,000. Conforming long-term, fixed-rate and adjustable loans that meet Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac loan limits and property and borrower guidelines. Conforming loans typically have higher loan limits than FHA and VA loans.

  • Reverse Mortgages - Allows borrowers to retain ownership of their property and receive cash or a monthly check representing a portion of the equity in the property. No money is due until the property is sold, the owner dies or vacates the property for 6 months, or an agreed upon date is reached.

  • 0% Down Investment/Rental Properties - FIndMyRate.com offers many loan programs to the investment buyer that wants to put the least amount down. Typically these loan programs differ from a conforming loan in that a slightly higher interest rate is charged. A down payment of 10% is needed to qualify for conforming rates. Loan to values to 90% with allowed seller concessions of up to 5%.

Mortgage payment terms can be structured to the borrowers’ particular needs that include 30, 20, 15 and 10 year fixed rates, ARM’s, and many balloon programs.

  • No Income Verification - No-Income, No-Asset, No-Job Verification loans allow borrowers with very good credit to secure a mortgage without proving income and in some cases assets. This is especially helpful for self-employed individuals or commissioned borrowers who write off large deductions to reduce their income tax consequences. They also benefit those who can't or don't want to prove where the down payment and closing costs are coming from. These loans can be secured with as little as 5% down payment for those who qualify based on credit history. Naturally these mortgage loans come with a slightly higher interest rate due to the enormous amount of risk the mortgage lender assumes.

  • New Construction - FindMyRate.com has the ideal home mortgage program for new construction -- our "Extended Lock" mortgage. It´s available for conventional, FHA and VA fixed-rate loans. We´ll lock in your interest rate for a maximum of 180 days while your new home is being constructed. When your home is completed, and it´s closing time, you´ll get the original interest rate you locked in, even if interest rates have gone up since then.

There are many loan programs that may be available to you, even if you do not meet traditional approval guidelines.

Pre-approval means that borrowers have successfully qualified for the loan for which they have applied for prior to having a property picked out. Having an approved loan application means borrowers can begin the closing process on the house.

  • Imperfect Credit Loans, Bad Credit California Mortgages- Imperfect credit home mortgage loans allow borrowers with less-than-perfect credit to qualify for competitive interest rates to buy a home, consolidate debt, lower payments or make home improvements.
