Frequently Asked Questions |
|
Why do mortgages take so long?
Most mortgage brokers don't take the time to ask the appropriate questions specific to your needs and circumstances. |
|
Since mortgage companies all pay the same amount for money, why is there such a wide range of rates on any given day?
The wide range is due to overhead, advertising and undisclosed costs. |
|
How do I determine what combination of rates, points and fees (if any) I have to pay?
This is based on our analysis of how long you've owned your home and the time remaining until your next refinance. |

What does "financial diversification" mean?

How do you determine your short-term and long-term financial goals?
We do an analysis based on number of years, inflation rate and personal targets. |

|
Is it true that most divorces are caused by disagreements over money?
Not money itself, but what to do with it. |
|
How does one determine "risk" and what to consider "risky"?
One determines risk by becoming educated on not only the investment being considered but also its alternative. |

What is "APR" and how is it determined?
APR is calculated by adding the appropriate finance fees to the interest rate and amoritizing that amount over a 30 year period. |
