MORTAGAGE GUIDE
WICH TYPE OF MORTGAGE IS RIGHT FOR YOU?
CONVENTIONAL LOAN:
This is the most common type of home loan. It is not offered or secured by a government organization and are
available through a private lender (Fannie Mae & Freddie Mac). Fixed and adjustable interest rate options
FHA LOAN:
This loan helps first time home buyer’s and has looser financial requirements than a conventional loan. This means
you typically have a higher debt-to-income ratio and/or low credit scores. It is government backed by the Federal
Housing Administration and offered by FHA approved lenders only.
JUMBO LOANS:
These loans fall outside of the FHFA (Federal Housing Finance Agency) These loans are common in areas of higher
property value and for anyone needing to borrow more that $766,550. The more money needed to purchase a home
the higher the risk for the lender. This also means more documentation is needed to qualify.
VA LOANS:
These are available for veterans, service members, spouses and reservists. This loan is backed by the U.S.
Department of Veterans Affairs through private lenders. They typically have a lower interest rate and require no
down payment.
Creative Loan:
Our creative loan product is a type of mortgage that lenders issue based on personal information and bank statements with no need for tax returns, W-2’s or employer verification. This type of loan is ideal for the self-employed and 1099 contracted borrowers.
Reverse Mortgage:
A reverse mortgage is a type of loan that allows homeowners who are 62 years of age or older to borrow part of their home’s equity as tax-free income. Unlike a regular mortgage where the borrower makes payments to the lender, with a reverse mortgage, the lender pays the homeowner. Life can always have unexpected financial burdens and a reverse mortgage can help offset the ones that arise later in our lives.
Mark Barnett
Mark Barnett wanted obtaining a home loan to be easy for most people. Over 20 years ago, he started in the mortgage industry as a processor. Eventually, he moved onto underwriting, and then, finally, to sales. Being in sales opened Mark’s eyes to the difficulties so many people had when trying to buy a home. He saw people turned down or offered extremely high rates, making it practically impossible for them to purchase their forever-home. Wanting to help these people get the home of their dreams, he started Barnett Mortgage.
