Common FibsTwo of the most common lies are on mortgage applications are: 1. Fudging how much income you make to help you qualify for a larger loan2. Not telling the entire truth about the origin of their down payment.
• All bank statements, tax returns and W-2s are collected when you apply for a mortgage. Lying could result in substantial fines and potentially time in prison.
• For your down payment, if you borrow money from family or friends, this is considered a debt to that individual and must be noted.
Careful with Credit
Do:• Know your credit score & how to
improve! • Make payments on time and in
full when possible. Eliminating debt will increase your credit score.
Don’t: • Apply for new credit before or
during the mortgage application process
• Make large purchases on your credit card
According to U.S. News & World Report, a bad credit score can impact the interest rate you wind up paying over the entire life of the loan.
