FAQ

How do I know which loan type is right for me?
It depends on down payment, credit, property, occupancy, and timeline. We compare conventional, government, and specialty programs side by side — not just one lender's menu.
Can you help if I was turned down elsewhere?
Often yes. Different lenders have different overlays. As a broker we match your file to the right investor guidelines.
What's the difference between pre-qualification and pre-approval?
Pre-qual is an early estimate based on stated info. Pre-approval involves documentation review and is stronger for making offers — we'll guide you to the right stage.
Do you offer refinance as well as purchase?
Yes — rate-and-term, cash-out, FHA streamline, and VA IRRRL when eligible. See our refinance hub for break-even tools and timelines.
Will shopping hurt my credit?
Mortgage inquiries within a typical shopping window are often treated as one for scoring. We'll explain timing before you formally apply.
