How can I take advantage of the First Time Home Buyer Savings Account Program?
The State of Michigan is offering a tax deduction on dividend earnings for savings accounts of first time home buyers when funds are used for a first time home purchase. Members can save and use these funds toward a down payment of up to $50,000 through 2026. This program potentially allows first time home buyers to not have to pay income tax on the account earnings if they their tax return is filed with supporting documentation.

What is Private Mortgage Insurance and when is it needed?
Private mortgage insurance (PMI) is a type of mortgage insurance required on mortgage loans with less than a 20% down payment. PMI offers borrowers the ability to purchase their dream home without a 20% down payment. The loan type, credit score and loan to value ratio are taken into consideration when calculating the PMI premium, which is paid monthly as a portion of the total mortgage payment. PMI remains on the loan until there is sufficient equity in the home allowing the homeowner to request cancellation. At 78% Loan to Value, PMI is automatically terminated.

What is the difference between a fixed-rate and adjustable-rate mortgage (ARM), and which one should I choose?
The difference between a fixed rate and an adjustable rate mortgage is that, for fixed rates the interest rate is set when you take out the loan and will not change. With an adjustable rate mortgage, the interest rate may go up or down.

With our Conventional Fixed-Rate Mortgage you can select from 10, 15, 20, 25 and 30-year terms with a fixed rate for the length of the loan. A down payment of at least 3% is required.

With our Adjustable-Rate Mortgage your home loan will be at a lower rate for the first 3 to 5 years. Adjustable-Rate Mortgages are perfect for short-term home ownership, large payments towards the loan in the first few years, or for members simply looking to save money with a lower fixed rate for the first 3 to 5 years. Select from 7-1, 5-1, 3-1, and 5-5 ARMs for a 30-year term. The monthly payments are based on a 30-year amortization, and can change throughout the life of the loan. After the initial term, the interest rate adjusts higher or lower based on the 1 year US Treasury market. The rate changes are limited to an increase or decrease of up to 2% at each annual adjustment, and subject to both a minimum rate (floor) and maximum rate (ceiling) over the life of the loan. Our Mortgage Loan Officers can help you identify which option may be best for you.

What is a Mortgage Preapproval?
A mortgage pre-approval means your application has received an initial review and approval. In many cases, our online application system can issue an immediate pre-approval. You may be asked to provide some basic financial documentation such as paystubs and W-2's. The loan officer will review your credit report and application to determine your ability to repay, credit worthiness, and the terms requested. A pre-approval letter from your loan officer demonstrates to the real estate agents and the sellers that you are a serious and qualified buyer. Mortgage pre-approvals are good for 120 days from the date of the credit application.

My offer was accepted now what?
You will need to schedule an inspection, order an appraisal, and request a homeowners insurance quote.

After you have received an accepted offer, determine if you will have a home inspection for the structure and pests, as well as a radon test. After the inspection has been completed we will order the appraisal and title work.

You will also want to begin obtaining homeowners insurance quotes early. This will give you adequate time to compare quotes and determine if your insurance agent will need to visit the property.
