What is the difference between a Fixed Rate loan and an Adjustable Rate mortgage?
The interest rate of a Fixed Rate loan is set for the life of the loan. The interest rate of an Adjustable Rate
loan fluctuates with the market according to the parameters set within the loan.
What is prepaid interest?
This is the interim interest that accrues on the mortgage loan from the date of the loan closing to the beginning
of the period covered by the first monthly payment. For example, if your closing date is scheduled for April 15,
the first mortgage payment is due June 1. The lender will calculate a per-day interest amount that is collected at
the time of closing. This amount covers the interest accrued from April 15 to May 1 and then your June 1 payment
covers interest from May 1 to June 1.

Mortgage Loans for People with Bad Credit
Though a bankruptcy is certainly a blemish on a credit report, it does not necessarily disqualify a borrower. Recognising that sometimes bad things happen to good people, some select loan officers are becoming more willing to take a calculated risk.
Some lenders use a securing system to determine whether potential buyers are a worthwhile risk. Unfortunately, bankruptcy gives a low rating. However, select lenders are beginning to look beyond the rating and look at the individuals in need.
Because of new options, bankruptcy no longer needs to stand in the way of getting a home loan. With the help of more creative lenders, those who have experienced financial difficulty will have an easier time getting a mortgage.

2. If you have been receiving income through child support, you should have been receiving income consistently. You would be required to submit a history of the payments made for the child support. Usually, if your child support status has just been awarded recently, it might not be considered as a qualifying source of income.
3. It is not advisable to apply for a mortgage loan while being involved in a lawsuit or any legal matter. You should prospone your application until that legal matter is settled and resolved before you could apply for a mortgage loan.
