Ready to apply for a loan? Once you have requested your prequalification on-line and are ready to apply for a specific loan, it's a good idea to start gathering up the following information. You need to submit this information to your Loan Officer in order to continue the loan process.

Loan or purchase information:

  • A copy of your most recent mortgage statement (if available).
  • A copy of the Purchase Contract (if applicable).
If you have an employer:

If you are self-employed:
  • Last year's signed and dated tax return, including all schedules, a year-to-date Profit and Loss (P&L;) Statement that is less than 60 days old, and a current signed Balance Sheet.
  • If you're part of a corporation or partnership, provide last year's tax return for corporation/partnership including form K-1, a year-to-date Profit and Loss (P&L;) Statement (less than sixty days old), and a current signed Balance Sheet.
Special situations:

Depending on your individual situation, you may also have to supply some additional information. Read over this list below and see if any of it applies to you.

  • If your down payment includes a cash gift from a friend or relative, you need a copy of the check or wire transfer showing the donor's name and account number, plus a copy of the deposit into your bank account. (This applies only to home purchase loans.)
  • If you receive a Social Security pension or annuity, provide a copy of the awards letter and a copy of a recent benefit check.
  • If you own other real estate, provide a lease/rental agreement if applicable, and copies of property tax and insurance bills.
  • If you receive alimony or child support, provide a copy of the divorce decree and evidence of receipt of income for 12 months (i.e. canceled checks, deposit slips or bank statements).
  • If you pay alimony or child support, provide a copy of your divorce decree.
  • If you've had a bankruptcy within the last seven years, provide a copy of your bankruptcy discharge, a copy of the petition (including schedules A & B) and an explanation of the circumstances.

That's it! By providing the above information when applicable, you'll help speed up the loan process.
