THE MORTGAGE AND LOAN PROCESS
FUNDING YOUR HOME PURCHASE
1. Financial Pre-Qualification or Pre-Approval
Application & Interview
Buyer provides pertinent documentation, including verification of employment
Credit report is requested
Appraisal scheduled for current home owned (if any)
2. Underwriting
Loan package is submitted to underwriter for approval
3. Loan Approval
Parties are notified of approval
Loan documents are completed and sent to title
4. Title Company
Title Exam, insurance and title survey conducted
Borrows visit Title Company to sign final documents
5. Funding
Lender reviews the loan package

WHY PRE-QUALIFY?
We recommend our buyers get pre-qualified prior to beginning their home search.
Knowing exactly how much you can comfortably spend on a home reduces the
potential frustration of looking at homes beyond your means.
As a qualified, motivated buyer you’ll be taken more seriously when you make an
offer on a home
Lenders will know if you qualify for any special programs that enable you to afford a
better home
THINGS NOT TO DO AFTER YOUR PRE-APPROVAL
1. Do not make odd deposits. For example, Birthday money
2. Do not make big credit purchases
3. Do not apply for any other credit

FINANCING FYI’S
When borrowing money and getting a mortgage, it is important to think of money as any
other commodity. You need to shop for the best deal. Just like buying any product the
lowest cost is not always the best deal. We like to guide you in the process and provide
information so you can make the best decision for your circumstance. We work closely with
our lenders to assure you get the best possible deal.
TYPES OF LOANS AND OPTIONS
Conventional: This type of loan required 5% or more on a down payment. If you have less
than 20% down, private mortgage insurance will be required. The less money you have to
put down and the lower your credit score is the cost of the mortgage insurance goes up.
FHA (Federal Housing Association): This loan requires 3.5% down payment, with less
stringent guidelines than the conventional loan. Mortgage insurance will be required for 5
years. The money you can put down lessons the cost of the mortgage insurance. FHA does
charge an upfront funding fee which may be added to the loan amount.
VA (Veterans Administration): This loan will allow a veteran with eligibility the
opportunity to buy a home with zero money down. There is a funding fee; however the
buyer is allowed to add that to the loan amount. There is no private mortgage insurance
required.
RHS (Rural Housing Service – also known as USDA): Allows homes in rural areas to be
purchased at 100% loan to value. Mortgage insurance is not required. USDA charges an
upfront funding fee which may be added to the loan amount.
Homepath: This is a loan Fannie Mae makes available on their foreclosure homes. It
requires a minimum of 3% down payment. No appraisal is required, along with no mortgage
insurance required by the buyer. They do not charge an upfront funding fee. This is a great
product, but limited homes are available.
Other products you may have heard about include:
KHC (Kentucky Housing Corporation)
LPMI (Lender Paid Mortgage Insurance)
HUD REO (Housing of Urban Development Real Estate Owned)
Down Payment Assistance Program
Portfolio Loan

MAKING AN OFFER
Once you have found the property you want, we will write a purchase agreement. While
much of the agreement is standard, there are a few areas that we can negotiate:
THE PRICE
What you offer on a property depends on a number of factors including its condition, length of time on
the market, buyer activity, and the urgency of the seller. While some buyers want to make a low offer
just to see if the seller will accept, this often isn’t a smart choice, because the seller may be insulted
and decide not to negotiate at all.
THE MOVE-IN DATE
If you can be flexible on the possession date, the seller will be more apt to choose your offer over
others. Some Sellers will want a few days after closing to move out of the property and some will be
happy to give the keys to you at closing. This will all be a part of the negotiation process.
ADDITIONAL PROPERTY
Often the seller plans on leaving major appliances in the home; however, which items stay or go is
often a matter of negotiation.
GOOD FAITH DEPOSIT
A good faith deposit will be required when the offer is accepted. This deposit secures you to the
contract and shows the Seller you are serious about your intentions to purchase their home. The
deposit is cashed but sits in an escrow account. The deposit is refundable if you are unhappy with any
inspection results, if the property does not appraise, or if you are unable to obtain financing.
Otherwise, the deposit will be refunded to you at closing.
Typically, you will not be present at the offer presentation; we will present it to the listing agent
and/or seller. The seller will then do one of the following:
Accept the Offer
Reject the Offer
Counter the Offer with Changes
By far the most common is the counter offer. In these cases, our experience and negotiating skills
become powerful in representing your best interests.
When a counter offer is presented, we will work together to review each specific area of the counter
offer, making sure that we move forward with your goals in mind and ensuring that we negotiate the
best possible price and terms on your behalf.

The Jenkins Real Estate Group
www.LouisvilleAreaHomeFinder.com (502) 653-3668
INSPECTIONS
Once we have successfully negotiated the price and terms of your new home, you will need
to do inspections. Typically the inspection is designed to investigate the home to make sure
that everything is working. Your Home inspection will cover the following:
Basic overall structure of the home
Foundation
Roof
Electrical
Plumbing
Water heater
Air Conditioning
Furnace
In addition to your home inspection you may want to have additional inspections done.
Mold - spores commonly found in AC units, carpets, household posted plants, etc.
Radon – radioactive gas caused by the breakdown of uranium and radium. Radon is
invisible, odorless, and tasteless; and seeps into the walls, floors and crawl spaces, etc.
Lead – A highly toxic metal that was used for many years in paint, but can also be found in
dust and water. The federal government banned the production of lead based paint in 1978.
Any home built prior to 1978 or with knowledge of lead based paint must disclose that fact
to buyers.
Septic Systems – treats and disperses water waste from the home using a four-
component system: septic tank, drain field, soil, and groundwater.
Structural Engineer – an expert qualified by education training and experiences in the
behavior and design of structure.
The following is a list of a few types of inspections that can be conducted on your new
home. Prices are estimates to give you an idea of cost.
1. Home Inspection ($200-$300)
2. Termite Inspection ($30-$50)
3. Radon Inspection ($100-$200)
4. Mold Inspection ($50-$150)
5. Lead Base Paint Inspection ($200-$300)
6. Staked Survey ($300-$1,200)

CLOSING 101
PREPARE FOR IT
Closing day marks the end of your home-buying process and the beginning
of your new life! To make sure your closing goes smoothly, you should bring
the following:
A certified check for closing costs and down payment. Make the check
payable to yourself; you will then endorse it to the title company at
closing
An insurance binder and paid receipt
Photo ID’s
OWN IT
Transfer of title moves ownership of the property from the seller to you. The
two events that make this happen are:
DELIVERY OF THE BUYER’S FUNDS
This is the check or wire funds provided by your lender in the amount of the
loan.
DELIVERY OF THE DEED
A deed is the document that transfers ownership of real estate. The deed
names the seller and buyer, gives a legal description of the property, and
contains the notarized signatures of the seller and witnesses.
At the end of the closing, the deed will be taken and recorded at the county
clerk’s office. It will be sent to you after processing.
