Credit Tip Tuesday!
Judgments and liens = big red flags

Most lenders require:
✔️ Proof they’ve been paid
✔️ Release documents
✔️ In some cases, months of payment history
Don’t let old debt cause new problems. We’ll pull your report and clear the path before you apply.

What Is a Jumbo Loan?

Jumbo loans exceed conforming loan limits set by Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. Because they carry higher risk, they have stricter credit, income, and down payment requirements.

💡 Why it matters: If you’re buying a luxury or high-priced home, expect higher qualification standards.

Pro Tip: Work with a lender experienced in jumbo loans to navigate the extra requirements smoothly.

Credit Tip Tuesday!
Filed for bankruptcy? You can still buy a home.
Yep—you’re not out of the game forever.
📅 FHA = 2 years from Chapter 7 discharge
📅 Conventional = 4 years
📈 Chapter 13 = you may qualify while still in repayment with trustee approval
The key is rebuilding the right way and that starts now. I’ll guide you every step.

When Is an Interest-Only Loan a Good Idea?

Interest-only loans offer lower initial payments by only paying interest for a set period. However, you don’t build equity during that time, and payments increase significantly afterward.

💡 Use cautiously: Best suited for borrowers with fluctuating income or plans to refinance/sell before principal payments start.

Pro Tip: Understand the risks and have a solid repayment or exit plan before choosing this loan type.

Credit Tip Tuesday!
How your spouse’s credit can affect your loan even if they’re not applying
In community property states like AZ, CA, or TX, your spouse’s debts may be counted in your DTI even if you apply solo.
💡 Their credit score won’t be used but their monthly obligations? Absolutely.
If they are on your loan and you have a middle score of 780 and they have a middle score of 580; your rate is approved based on the 580.
Let’s check to see how your relationship impacts your approval process, because surprises at underwriting are never fun.

Credit Tip Tuesday!
Can you qualify for a mortgage if you have collections?
Yes, but it depends.
📌 Medical collections often aren’t counted.
📌 Some other collections may not need to be paid. It depends on how much you owe in total and if paying them off will help your score.
Best option - don’t guess—ask. We’ll review your report together and map out the best route forward.

How Early Can You Refinance?

Many loans have seasoning requirements—minimum time you must wait before refinancing, typically 6–12 months. Jumping in too soon can lead to denial or penalties.

💡 Check your loan terms: Knowing your refinance timeline helps plan your financial moves wisely.

Pro Tip: Keep an eye on market rates and your loan eligibility to refinance at the optimal time.

Mortgage Wisdom Wednesday! 📋✍️

What to Expect on Closing Day

Closing day means signing a stack of documents and providing funds for your down payment, closing costs, and prepaid items like taxes and insurance. Knowing these numbers in advance prevents last-minute surprises.

💡 Be prepared: Review your Closing Disclosure several days before closing and ask questions.

Pro Tip: Bring a valid ID, a cashier’s check or proof of wire transfer for your funds and arrive ready to sign.

Credit Tip Tuesday!
How long do negative marks last?
📉 Late payments = 7 years
💥 Collections = 7 years
⚖️ Bankruptcy = 7–10 years
But here’s the silver lining: the impact fades over time, especially if you’re actively rebuilding with new, positive credit behavior.
One mistake doesn’t define you but avoiding action can. Let’s get a plan together.
