Is a Fixed Rate mortgage better than an Adjustable Rate mortgage?
The answer to this question depends on your situation. Many people prefer fixed rate mortgages with the low rates
available today. If you are going to stay in your home for a short time, an adjustable rate may make more sense.
Very popular options offered exclusively through zionmortgages.com are ARMs. These loans provide the security of
a fixed rate loan and the lower rate benefits of an ARM. When you select your loan preferences, we will recommend
the loan best suited for your needs.
How much does mortgage insurance cost?
Your PMI will be based on your down payment and the loan amount. The larger your down payment, the less PMI will cost.
This is paid monthly with your mortgage payment.

Although it is very possible to get approved for a first time home loan with poor credit, a good credit rating will open the doors for low rates and better financing options. Improving your credit is a slow process. To begin, strive to pay all creditors on time and avoid skipping payments. A key to increasing credit scores is maintaining a good credit standing. Secondly, reduce your debts. Maintain credit cards at half the maximum limit. If possible, payoff balances monthly.

Mortgage Qualification Guidlines
1. You should have had no late payments with your previous credits for at least one year (12 months). But if you have had a great credit record for several years and you had some little occasions of late payment, your application might still be considered. Usually, lenders watch out for late payments that are 30 days behind or more.
2. Lenders will check your rental payment history. You should have regular, on time payments for your rental residence for at least, the last 2 years to prove that you pay on time.
3. If the government has established your student loan to be in default, it is possible that you are not found to be a qualified applicant for a mortgage loan. However, there are cases the disqualification may be waived provided that you have entered into your repayment negotiations to schedule for the student loan and you have made punctual payments again for the previous year.
