Mortgage Basics

Simply put, a mortgage is a loan secured by real property and paid in installments over a set period of time. The mortgage secures your promise that the money borrowed for your home will be repaid.

According to Wikipedia

A mortgage loan is a loan secured by real property through the use of a document which evidences the existence of the loan and the encumbrance of that reality through the granting of a mortgage which secures the loan. However, the word mortgage alone, in everyday usage, is most often used to mean mortgage loan.



Components of a Mortgage

Mortgage Approval

Qualifying for a mortgage requires meeting a predetermined set of guidelines established by a lender, which may include credit history, income, employment and assets.


In addition to personal qualifying factors, a property must also meet certain standards set by lenders before a borrower can obtain a mortgage loan secured by real estate.
