Financing
The Seavey Realty Team partners with experienced mortgage specialists and can introduce you to lenders who offer competitive rates and suitable loan programs. They help you understand the importance of getting pre-approved before house hunting and support you through the loan application, processing, underwriting, and closing phases to make financing your home as smooth as possible.
Getting pre-approved involves a lender reviewing your income, assets, debts, and credit to estimate how much you can afford. This step helps you set a realistic budget and demonstrates to sellers that you have financing in place, making your offers more competitive. The Seavey Realty Team recommends consulting with a lender early to streamline your home search.
Once your loan application is submitted, it goes to processing where the lender reviews all documents and orders necessary appraisals and title examinations. Then an underwriter evaluates the loan for compliance and risk. You may be asked for additional documentation during this phase. After approval, you’ll proceed to closing, where you sign final documents and receive your keys.
