A Comprehensive Guide to Getting a Purchase Loan with Stewardship Lending Solutions

Are you in the market for a new home and in need of a purchase loan? At Stewardship Lending Solutions, we understand that securing a mortgage can be a complex process, but we're here to guide you through every step. We are dedicated to helping you find the best loan program and achieving a smooth, efficient purchase process. Let's walk through the journey of obtaining your purchase loan with us, step by step.

​

Step 1:  The application

The journey begins with your loan application. You can start by filling out our user-friendly online application form or by reaching out to one of our experienced loan officers. We'll gather essential information about you, your financial situation, and your preferences to tailor a loan program that suits your needs.

 

Step 2: Reviewing Your Credit

One of the key factors in securing a mortgage is your creditworthiness. Our team will review your credit history to assess your credit score and financial stability. If needed, we will provide guidance on how to improve your credit to secure a more favorable interest rate.

 

Step 3: Debt-to-Income (DTI) Ratio Evaluation

A crucial aspect of mortgage approval is your Debt-to-Income (DTI) ratio. We'll analyze your monthly debt obligations in relation to your income to determine if you meet the required guidelines. If your DTI ratio is high, we'll work with you to explore potential solutions to lower it.

 

Step 4: Finding the Best Loan Program

Our team specializes in identifying the best loan program for your unique situation. We have access to a wide range of loan options through our wholesale channel, allowing us to find the most competitive rates and terms available in the market. We will provide you with a personalized loan proposal outlining the details of your selected loan program.

 

Step 5: Underwriting Process

Once you've chosen your loan program, your application will move into the underwriting phase. Our expert underwriters will meticulously review your financial documents, employment history, and other pertinent information to ensure that all requirements are met. This step helps ensure that your loan is structured correctly and that you are well on your way to approval.

 

Step 6: Clear to Close

The ultimate goal of the mortgage process is to receive the coveted "Clear to Close" status. This means that all conditions and requirements have been satisfied, and your loan is approved for funding. At Stewardship Lending Solutions, we take pride in our efficiency, and it's not uncommon for us to achieve a Clear to Close status in as little as 9 to 21 days, allowing you to move swiftly toward your real estate purchase.

 

Step 7: Closing on Your New Home

With the Clear to Close status obtained, you'll be ready to close on your new home. Our team will coordinate with all parties involved in the transaction, including title companies and real estate agents, to ensure a seamless closing process. You'll sign the necessary documents, and your purchase will be complete.

 

Step 8: Moving Into Your New Home
