It’s true that buying a new construction home involves a bit of paperwork, but not all of it goes to the same place! Knowing which documents go where can help you stay organized and feel more confident throughout the homebuying process. This quick guide will help you understand who handles what.
Documents for Your Mortgage Lender
Your lender is responsible for reviewing your financial profile and whether you qualify for a home loan. These documents will help them verify your income, assets, and your ability to repay the mortgage. Please note that these may not be all the documents required to review and process your application. More documents may be required and requested to complete your loan review:
