Chattanooga Mortgage

By Mark Lambie

Made famous by the Chattanooga Choo-Choo dance, this Tennessee city is an attractive place for young couples to settle, purchase a home, and to start a family. A Chattanooga Mortgage provider can help you get started, here are some helpful tips to get you on your way.

1. Gather your paperwork. Yes, sooner or later you will be asked for more documentation than you thought possible. Lenders will want this material and some government agencies require the information too. Chief item needed include: the last three years of your state and federal income tax filings - lender will want to verify that you have the ability to repay what you borrowed; your pay stubs; personal and job references; your social security card; a picture i.d.; bank statements including checking and savings accounts; and any other paperwork required. Some Chattanooga mortgage companies may have different requirements; make sure you understand what they need in order to move the process along.

2. Select a lender. Search the internet and enter “Chattanooga Mortgage” into your search box. The results should list several good ones; visit their sites and read everything you can about the company. Contact at least three lenders and let them compete against each other.

3. Contact a mover. If you cannot move it yourself, contact several moving companies to get competing estimates. Do not delay as rates go up closer to your move. Plan in advance and avoid paying extra fees.

4. Contact utility companies. Phone, cable, gas, electric, trash, sewer, and the like are some of the providers you need to contact before you move in. Don't delay; some will also want a deposit too.

Once your moving date has been set, contact the post office to have your mail forwarded to the new address. Ask them to forward all of your magazines too.

Your attorney and realtor will instruct you along the way as far as what is expected next. A home inspection and a title search must be conducted early on and your Chattanooga Mortgage lender will present to you detailed information about loan rates, closing costs, taxes, fees, and more. At this point in the process you are nearly done and it is only a matter of time before your big move.

Should you have any questions, your Chattanooga mortgage provider, realtor, and attorney are all there to help. Before you know it the closing date will arrive, the movers will magically appear, and you will be snug in your new home.
