Frequently Asked Questions

NC & SC Home Loan FAQs

How does a mortgage work when buying a house?

A mortgage is a type of loan designed to help individuals and families buy a house. To get a mortgage, you apply for a loan from a mortgage lender, who determines how much money they’re willing to give you based on your income, credit score, and other factors. Once approved for a mortgage, you can purchase a home. You’ll repay the loan over a period of 10-30 years through monthly mortgage payments, which include interest.

How do you qualify to buy a home?

To qualify to buy a home, most people need proof of income, assets, and a decent credit history. You’ll give this information to a mortgage lender, typically a bank or home loan company, which will determine what you qualify. The mortgage lender will evaluate your income, credit score, financial assets, bill payment history, and more to determine what you qualify for.

How much of a mortgage can I get approved for?

The mortgage amount you can get approved for will depend on your financial situation, as well as the type of home loan you’re applying for. In most cases, you’ll be approved for a higher mortgage amount if you have higher income and a good credit score.

What kind of credit score do you need to buy a house?

The credit score you need to buy a house depends on the type of home loan you are applying for. In most cases, you’ll be approved for the best home loans if you have a credit score of 500 or above.
