Key elements include document review, title checks, escrow alignment, disclosure verification, and a review timeline that aligns with California mortgage law.
Terminology you will encounter during a mortgage and lending review is explained here to help you understand every step.
A deed of trust is the security instrument used to pledge a property as collateral for a loan, with the trustee holding the property until the loan is repaid.
A closing disclosure outlines final loan terms, costs, and payments, provided to you before loan closing.
