The Mortgage of Your Dream

Imagine that you have a mortgage that is very affordable for you that you even can save some money at the end of the month for your next vacation. Having this kind of mortgage is just like having your dream comes true. Sadly, more often than not, the opposite is the case. If this is your situation, this guide might help you.

You may already know what to do to get the mortgage of your dream. It´s shop around. You may say that, that was exactly what you did the last time you got your not-the-dream-comes-true mortgage. You realize that there should be something missing. Well, you are right. There are things you should pay attention to when you are shopping around.

Mortgage quotes comparison
The first thing to do, and the thing that you may already know, is to compare mortgage quotes from several mortgage companies. You should get quotes from your local banks, mortgage companies, and mortgage brokers. Mostly, although it´s not always the case, quotes you get directly from mortgage companies are the cheapest. Mortgage quotes from local banks and from mortgage brokers will be quite high. However, if you find difficulty getting mortgage because of bad credit rating, using a mortgage broker might be the solution.

Mortgage fees comparison
This is the factor that most people don´t consider heavily when getting a mortgage. This is also the reason some people are getting hard time paying their mortgage. What are the mortgage fees? Mortgage fees are things like down payment, underwriting fee, broker fee, Annual Percentage Rate, closing cost, and similar costs.

Even though each of them seems small, the total of those fees might be big enough to become your nightmare. Of course, you might get some loan or refinancing later on to make these costs smaller. However, an analysis beforehand is of course a wise move. After all, if you can cut down those costs beforehand, later on when you refinancing you might save thousands of dollars in your pocket.

The last thing you might forget to do is to negotiate. Even the big companies or banks might be persuaded to do a negotiation. Try to negotiate the rate and costs. If you have a good credit rating, this might be easier to do.
