Is my personal information safe?

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.
When can I lock in my loan?
You may request to lock in your loan anytime after your loan application is submitted. Your rate is not locked until you
receive written confirmation that your rate has been locked. Interest rates fluctuate daily, so the rates available when
you apply may be different than the rates available when you decide to lock your interest rate. By locking, you protect
your selected rate for a stated period of time regardless of market fluctuation. Once your rate is locked, you will
receive a lock confirmation stating the rate and terms that you have protected.
How are rates determined?
Rates are determined by the bond market and other financial indicators. These rates can change daily or more
frequently. The changes are based on many different economic indicators in the financial markets. To obtain
current interest rates, view "Today’s Rate" on the front page or enter your desired
loan amount into "Custom Rate Search" on the left hand column of the front page.
