The quality and volume of loans we have originated over the years has enabled us to form great relationships with our lending sources, resulting in premium pricing, which we are able to pass on to you the consumer.

There's no cost for completing an application and getting your loan pre-approved. Upon receiving your preapproval, you will be given an opportunity to lock your rate. When you decide to lock in an interest rate, we will require a credit card to order an appraisal. The cost of the appraisal is generally between $350 and $550 depending on your area, loan size and specifics of your particular property.
