The mortgage process can be a little scary. Whether it's your first home or your fifth, knowing the mortgage and credit evaluation process is difficult as it is a constantly changing proposition. Royce Consulting is NOT a mortgage lender or a mortgage broker. We are made up of mortgage industry professionals who are here to look out for your best interest and make sure you get the best deal financially possible. Each client receives a customized evaluation, based upon their needs and the consult requested. Our fee could be nominal compared to the money you would spend on mortgage interest and settlement costs. Protecting yourself from an uneducated decision could realistically save you thousands of dollars over the life of your loan. Below is a comparison:
Good Credit Borrower:
Loan Amount : $150,000
Credit Score 720
Interest Rate: 6.25%
Closing Costs = $4500.00
Principal & Interest- 30 yr fixed loan = $923.58
Fair Credit Borrower
Loan Amount: $150,000
Credit Score : 640
Interest Rate: 7.375%
Closing Costs= $6000.00
Principal & Interest 30 year fixed loan $1036.01
Poor Credit Borrower
Loan Amount $150,000
Credit Score: 550
Interest Rate : 9.00%
Closing Costs $9000.00
Principal and Interest- 30 year fixed loan $1206.93
Now, it doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure out that poor credit borrower will pay and additional $283.35 per month more (1206.93 minus 923.58) for the same amount of money borrowed! That is an extra $3400 in the interest rate in the first year alone as well as and additional $4500.00 in closing costs! A total of $7900.00 extra over the course of the first year ALONE (over $100,000 throughout the life of the loan) all because the borrower didnt take the time to do what is needed to improve their score. Even against the good (average) credit borrower that is an additional 2849.16 extra the first year in interest and additional closing costs!! You could use that money for a variety of things! Save it in the bank as a cushion, buy furniture for the new house, take a vacation, etc.
