A mortgage and lending review is a careful assessment of loan documents, including the promissory note, mortgage or deed of trust, disclosures, and closing instruments, to ensure accuracy and protect your rights.
We examine loan terms, annual percentage rate, fees, escrow accounts, appraisal reports, title status, and required disclosures. The process includes document comparison, negotiation with lenders, and coordination to resolve discrepancies before closing.
We explain common mortgage terms such as APR, P&I, escrow, payoff, and notices of default to help you make informed choices.
APR reflects the true annual cost of borrowing, including interest and most fees, expressed as a percentage.
The document in which the borrower promises to repay the loan according to its terms.
The security instrument that pledges the property as collateral for the loan.
Accounts funded to cover property taxes, homeowners insurance, and other costs.
We outline possible paths if issues arise, including negotiating with lenders, pursuing refinements, or exploring refinancing options.
