Do’s to Buying a Home
• Don’t use your credit card to buy
things for your home before you
close. (No excessive spending.)
• Don’t buy a vehicle. Even if you
are paying cash versus taking out
a loan.
• Don’t do either. Most home loans
close within 30-45 days. Wait
until you are in the home.
• Don’t quit your job.
• Don’t open new revolving credit
cards
• Don’t make out-of-the-ordinary
large deposits. If you must, be
prepared to provide a clear paper
trail from where and why.
•Don’t buy large items on your credit
cards. We can’t stress this enough.
•Don’t lie on your loan application.
•Don’t omit any information. (This can be
the same as lying!)
•Don’t co-sign on a loan for anyone no
matter how much you love them or how
many times they promise to pay it back.
•Don’t make sudden changes in your
spending habits or income.
•Don’t just get pre-qualified get pre-
approved.
Don’ts to Buying a Home
A
Adjustable-Rate Mortgage (ARM) - Loans with an
initial fixed rate period (usually 5,7 or 10 years. After the
fixed rate period, your interest rare may change once per
year- either up or down depending on market conditions.
ARM’s are almost always lower in rate than fixed loans
and can offer huge savings to first time home buyers
especially those who don’t plan on staying in their home
for more than 10 years.
Amortization - The paying off of a debt with a fixed
repayment schedule in regular installments over a period
of time.
Annual Percentage Rate (APR) - The total cost of a loan
which includes not only the interest rate, but all costs
associated with the loan, such as closing costs and fees.
Once this is determined, the APR is then amortized over
the life of the loan. In order to allow borrowers to compare
various loans and lenders, the APR is required to be
disclosed by the Federal Truth-in-Lending statues.
Application Fee - One time processing fee for a loan.
This fee may be applied towards various costs, including
the appraisal and credit report.
Appraisal - An estimate of the current market value of
the property. B
Buy down - The ability for the buyer to lower their initial
interest rate by providing money upfront or by paying
extra points up front at the closing of the loan. C
Closing - The time where buyer and seller exchange
money for title and sign closing papers to a new home.
This finalizes the agreements reached in the sales
agreement.

a loan, or all the costs associated with closing on a piece
of property as a buyer.

following specific guidelines, by banks, savings and loans,
