is encrypted so your personal information cannot be accessed or viewed by anyone without the proper privileges. We

What is an Interest Rate Lock?
A lock is an obligation by us that your loan application will be locked in for a certain period of time to the interest
rate and corresponding points at the time you choose to lock in your loan. A lock does not represent in any way an
approval of your loan application.
What is an escrow account?
An escrow account is typically established at the time that you close your mortgage loan. This account is held by the
lender for the future payments of recurring items relating to the mortgaged property, such as real estate taxes and
insurance premiums. Lenders usually require you to pay an initial amount for each of those items to start the reserve
account at the time of closing and then the lender coordinates those payments as they become due.
How do I know what loan program is best for me?
Choosing your loan program can be difficult. After selecting your loan preferences during the application process,
your Loan Officer will be happy to provide you a personal consultation to select the loan best suited to your needs.
