First time homebuyer, new construction home, loan process in Texas.?

Dec 19, 2006 by Cream4life | Posted in Renting & Real Estate

We are first time home buyers in Texas and we are purchasing a new construction home. We've spoken with a few lenders and have two lined up to help with the homebuying process. We know about what we can afford, our credit ratings, etc. What we don't

I don't think you wold like to work for 3 months and have your boss not pay you because a new employee will work cheaper. Pick a lender you trust to do a good job and then let them do it.

When do we start the loan process for a new home construction home?

Dec 11, 2006 by Cream4life | Posted in Renting & Real Estate

My husband and I are buying a new home. The house is currently under construction but it won't be completely done until the Spring or Summer of next year. When should I start speaking with someone regarding a loan for the house?

My husband and I bought a newly constructed home out in Las Vegas, Nevada about a year ago. Before the home developer would even allow us to put an "earnest money deposit" down for the house, we had to get "prequalified" with a mortgage

(EDGAR Online via COMTEX) -- Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

This report contains certain financial information determined by methods other than in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"). These measures include net interest income on a fully tax equivalent basis and net interest margin on a fully tax equivalent basis. Management uses these non-GAAP measures in its analysis of the Company's performance. The tax equivalent adjustment to net interest income recognizes the income tax savings when comparing taxable and tax-exempt assets and assumes a 34% tax rate. Management believes that it is a standard practice in the banking industry to present net interest income and net interest margin on a fully tax equivalent basis, and accordingly believes that providing these measures may be useful for peer comparison purposes. These disclosures should not be viewed as substitutes for the results determined to be in accordance with GAAP, nor are they necessarily comparable to non-GAAP performance measures that may be presented by other companies.

New Construction Loan Process Step Two: Prequalifying

1) Ask any loan officer, Realtor or home builder to prequalify you for a loan. This process will generally involve calculating approximately 35% of your income, minus any other loan payments you may owe. This is the amount you will be able to make in a mortgage payment, and therefore it determines how much you can borrow.

2) Always be truthful with people who are prequalifying you. There is no point in attempting to either hide income or over inflate your projected income. Just tell them the truth so that they can help you get the best loan for your situation.
