An adjustable rate mortgage, also called an ARM, is a home loan with an interest rate that adjusts periodically based on a pre-determined term.

The numbers in an ARM represent years. The first number refers to how long the initial fixed-rate period will be. The second number tells how often the mortgage rate can adjust thereafter.

For example, a 5/1 ARM has a fixed interest rate for the first 5 years of the loan and an adjustable interest rate each year for the remainder of its loan term.
During the prequalification process, you'll be asked to provide documentation verifying your income, job stability, and other credit factors. This will help us determine your mortgage rate and the maximum amount we may lend to you. It will also allow us to estimate your monthly payment before you purchase your new home.

In order to prequalify for your mortgage application, we may request the following documents: 
  • 2 most recent pay check stubs
  • 2 years W2(s) or 1099(2)
  • 2 most recent bank statements
  • Social Security award letter (if applicable)
  • Pension statement (if applicable)
  • 401K or retirement statements
  • Homeowners insurance agent contact information
The Down Payment Assistance Program offers grants to qualified first-time homebuyers to use toward their down payment and closing costs. Depending on the borrower's income, funds are matched 4-to-1 (up to $30,806) or a subsidy up to $50,000 is given to qualified homebuyers.3

To qualify for our Down Payment Assistance Program, homebuyers must:
  • Be a first-time homebuyer or haven't owned a home in the past three years5
  • At or below 80% of the HUD area median income for "Low Income Borrowers" or between 80%-140% of the HUD area median income for “Middle-income Borrowers.”5
  • Meet required credit qualifications including obtaining a credit score of 620 or above7
  • Complete an approved homeowner counseling course
  • Open escrow within 1 year of program enrollment

For the Low-Income Borrowers program. no payments toward the grant are due as long as the homeowner resides in the home and they honor the terms of the grant and loan for a minimum of five years.
 
The amount owed will decrease by 20% for each year you retain homeownership of the property as your primary residence. After five years, the grant is forgiven and the lien is released from the property. If the property is sold or refinanced before the end of the five-year period, the matched funds must be repaid on a pro-rated basis.
 
For the Middle-Income Borrowers program. no repayment of the subsidy is due at any time.
The Down Payment Assistance Program for low income borrowers offers grants that match your initial contributions 4-to-1, up to the annual maximum subsidy limit.3 This means for every $1 you contribute, you could qualify for an additional $4 in grant funds to be used for your down payment and/or closing costs.

For example, if the borrower qualifies for the maximum subsidy:
  • Borrower contributes to down payment: $7,500
  • Amount of money that is matched: $30,000
  • Total amount available for home purchase: $37,500
