Home Loan Application Information Needed Details

Knowing what information is needed and required when submitting an application for a mortgage can feel like a lot to handle. That is why we have broken down exactly what you will need to get together for your application. Below we outline the ins and outs of the basics for what you will need.

What information will be requested for the application (and how it’s kept private)

Anything you submit over our website is 100 percent, fully secure. And we never, ever share it with anyone except by permission — that is, if you’re giving us information you want us to use to get you a home loan, we use that information to tell mortgage lenders about you and help get you a loan. In turn, those mortgage lenders are bound by federal law to keep your information secure.

Here is a list of the information mortgage lenders will use to consider your loan application. Go to this article Home Loan Application Checklist for an easy-to-use checklist we created for you to use while getting your mortgage information together
