Your Guide to the Home Mortgage Process with Todd Probasco

Buying or refinancing a home feels easier when the steps are clear. When you receive your home mortgage process presentation from Todd Probasco, VP Mortgage Banker, use it as a roadmap, not just a packet of forms.

A clear mortgage plan starts with knowing the path ahead.

Start with the big picture

The mortgage process usually begins with a conversation about goals, budget, income, credit, and timeline. This helps shape the loan options that may fit the situation.

From there, Todd’s presentation can help explain key stages such as:

• Pre-qualification or pre-approval

• Choosing a loan program

• Submitting documents

• Appraisal and underwriting

• Closing and funding

  
  

Organized paperwork can make the process smoother.

Know what lenders review

Lenders commonly look at income, debts, assets, credit history, and the property itself. The goal is to confirm that the loan meets program guidelines and that the monthly payment is reasonable.

The more complete the documents are, the fewer delays there may be.

A kitchen table can become the planning spot for a home loan.

Ask questions early

A good mortgage presentation should make terms easier to understand. Ask about interest rates, estimated cash to close, monthly payment, loan type, escrow, and timing. Clear answers help prevent surprises later.
