6 Steps of the Mortgage Process

At Vanmar Lending it is our job to make the mortgage process as seamless as possible. The loan process is broken up into 6 parts. #HOME



01 Documentation

During The Documentation Stage you are the most important player on the team. As quarterback of the documentation stage, there are a few critical documents we will be asking you to hand off. These documents include:


1. W2’s – From the last 2 years 

2. 1040 Federal Tax Returns – From the last 2 years 

3. 2 Most Recent Pay stubs 

4. 2 Most Recent Bank Statements – All pages 

5. Copy of your drivers license


During this stage, it is critical that you don’t change any aspects of your financial picture. This means: No Major Purchases. No Applying for New Credit. No Change in employment.


02 Appraisal

During The Appraisal Stage a licensed 3rd party Appraiser will estimate the value of the home you are about to purchase. This is meant to ensure for you, and your lender, that the home you are purchasing is worth the price that is being offered. The most common method used by an Appraiser to determine your homes value is to compare it against recently sold homes in your neighborhood; typically over the last 6 months.



03 Underwriting

During The Underwriting Stage, our Loan Processor reviews all the submitted documentation you have provided and then turns it over to our Underwriting Department. The Underwriter is responsible for performing three critical tasks:

1. Organization – The Underwriter will compile and organize your documentation into a mortgage-ready file. 2. Qualification – The Underwriter will reconstruct your scenario to ensure it meets our qualification requirements and guidelines. 3. Verification – The Underwriter will verify that all information is accurate and authentic. It is not uncommon for Underwriters to request additional documentation, so please do not be alarmed or discouraged if this happens. Instead, be sure to accommodate these additional requests as quickly as possible.



04 Conditional Approval

This is an exciting step in the process! During The Conditional Approval Stage you receive the first indication that your mortgage loan will be approved by us, as it has been initially reviewed by the Underwriter. Although, this approval is only valid if certain conditions requested from the our company are met. These conditions may include:

1. Additional Documentation 2. Letter of Explanation 3. Acceptable Appraisal Report


Once you have met all the required conditions requested, your file will be re-submitted to your underwriter for final approval.



05 Clear to Close

You're almost there! During The Clear-To-Close Stage the Underwriter “double checks” that all documentation has been provided and all conditions have been met. We will prepare the final documentation that will need to be signed at closing and we will be reaching out to schedule a closing date.



06 Closing

Hooray! During The Closing Stage you will be signing the final documentation, signing your title documents, and receiving the keys to your new dream home! That wasn’t too hard, right!?
