WHAT ABOUT LENDERS?
Lenders are wonderful. They lend huge amounts of money to help us buy our homes. Local lenders know our market and will help you get a good loan at a good price. The lenders we recommend do not charge high "junk fees". Homefinders.com agents do not receive any benefit when we recommend a lender for your needs. We want what you want.

THE CREDIT REPORT
All lenders will want to review your credit report before considering lending you money. Even though the loan is secured by a lien against your home, foreclosures are costly for lenders and certainly not pleasant for home owners. A high percentage of defaulted loans on a lender's books interferes with a lender's ability to borrow money.
HOW DO I FIND OUT HOW MUCH I CAN BORROW?
Use our easy mortgage calculator below and you'll know approximately how much money you can borrow.
FHA loan limit for Prince George's County is $234,650
FHA loan limit for Anne Arundel and Howard County is $189,805
Loans over the above amounts will be Conventional Loans with slightly higher down payments.
WHAT EXACTLY IS A POINT?
Points are pre-paid interest. When a lender quotes a interest rate, they will quote one rate for a loan with no points, or pre-payment, and a lower interest rate if you pay points. Each point is one percent (1%) of the loan amount. It's that simple. You pay points to reduce the interest rate on your loan.
