Don't Go Shopping for a New Home Before You Know Exactly How Much You Can Spend!   | | | |
 You might have an idea of the loan payment and interest rate and mortgage you can afford, But will the bank feel otherwise after they reviewed all your information? It's always best to pre-qualify for a mortgage so you know exactly how much a financial institution would be willing to lend you and how much you can really afford. Portland Home Loan Experts Division of Big River Mortgage Our philosophy and mission is to provide home buyers and owners a smooth, educated and stress free experience. We strive to help our clients secure the right Mortgage loan for their personal and financial goals. With the ever changing loan programs, staying up to date with guidelines, rates and the products available is very important. However, we believe that the most important thing we can do is help you feel comfortable about the process by providing valuable information that will prepare you for the financing process. If you cannot be approved for a loan right now, Jennifer and I will work with you for as long as it takes to get you ready. Big River Mortgage is a Local Mortgage Banker which means that Processing and Underwriting is completed in House. This gives us control over the flow of information and the ability to close quickly while keeping you informed about the loans progress every step of the way. We has access to all of the most commonly used loan programs today, including FHA, Conventional, USDA, VA and Jumbo. If we do not have something in house, we can broker it to the lender of choice! Rates are low and if you wait you could loose purchasing power! In the last 5 years rates have been offered between 5.875% and 6.875% roughly speaking. Let’s choose 6.5% for our example. $200,000 loan at 6.5% would cost $1,264 per month. At today’s pricing of 4.625% it would only cost $1,028. That difference in pricing is the equivalent of $85,000 over the life of the loan. That difference is also equivalent to a price change of $46,000. So if you buy now, and take advantage of these rates your purchase power increases by almost $50,000 more than when rates go back to the range they have spent much of the last 5 years!! This doesn’t even take into consideration the fact that by summer, prices in the Northwest are going to be going back up, slowly stabilizing. In many pockets of Portland they already are!

First Time Buyers >Finding A Real Estate Agent
Finding an experienced, reliable real estate agent whom you like and trust is the first step in locating your new home. Here is an approach to finding the right agent.
Call or stop by a real estate office and ask to speak with the manager. Describe the type of home you are looking for. The manager can refer you to an agent who knows that market very well. You might also use weekend "open houses" as opportunities to look for a real estate agent, as well as a new home. It is really a matter of chemistry! If you meet someone who is knowledgeable and with whom you feel comfortable, call that person!
Once you establish a strong working relationship with a real estate agent, your agent can show you a number of homes for sale, even if they are listed with other companies. Often the agent can show you a property as soon as it is placed on the market. Many of the best homes never even make it to the weekend classified section of the newspaper!
