As you step onto the road of homeownership, it may become evident, securing a mortgage to finance the purchase of your property is a necessity. A mortgage loan can give you more mobility and options as you search for a home best fitting your wants and needs.
To secure a home loan, you’ll need to start with a pre-approval process in which you submit an application containing your ID information, credit history and financial information. Once you’re approved by your lender, you’re able to better budget for your home purchase and narrow down the home search.
Your monthly mortgage payments are comprised of four main units: tax, interest rate, insurance and the principal loan balance. The principal is the sum of money borrowed from the lender, while the interest rate is a fee attached onto the principal balance by the lender for borrowing their loan.
Mortgage lenders may also collect property taxes owed to the state on your behalf. Homeowners insurance is often required when you take out mortgage loans to protect your home in the case of perils and payment is collected by your lender.
A mortgage term is the length of time you agree to repay your loan balance. The most common mortgage term is 30 years, which offers lower monthly payments; however, shorter terms are available, often between 10 and 25 years.
Shorter terms come with higher monthly payments, but you can save thousands of dollars on interest.
Before committing to a mortgage loan, consider speaking with a lender to explore loan options best fitting your situation.

“I am currently a longtime resident of over 30 years in Marlborough, MA, but mainly grew up in Hudson MA. Later, I had the opportunity to live in various towns in and around the Middlesex County area (Acton, Bolton, Framingham, Hopkinton,) as well as in the Netherlands, Europe. Bringing understanding, insight, and strategy on the home sale marketing and sale process is critical. With over 30 years of experience, I have helped hundreds of homeowners get their home sold for the very best price and terms with the least inconvenience, with skill, caring, and a marketing plan tailored to their needs and their home! My buyer clients benefit from the same 30 years plus of experience of positioning their offers to meet with success in getting accepted, which has resulted in many happy home buyers.
