There are salaried mortgage broker jobs - a friend of mine has one.\n\nHowever, I'm told the mortgage industry is drying up - everyone has already refinanced and now rates are on the rise... it might be time to peruse other options.\n\nGood luck from a stockbroker.

A Veteran's Administration, or VA loan, is the same as any other loan and made by the same lenders who make other loans.  The VA only guarantees that whoever makes the loan is safe and cannot lose money in the event that you default on the loan.  It is the same as any other mortgage, whether FHA or conventional.  VA does make it possible for the borrower to not make a down payment when purchasing a home.  Eligibility requirements of honorable discharge, length of service, etc; must be met by the borrower.  Credit worthiness is the same as any other type of loan.  You cannot have an unlimited amount of VA eligibility; it varies by region.  There is a dollar ceiling on how much borrowing is allowed per veteran.  A VA guaranteed mortgage can be repaid and the borrower's eligibility is renewed up to that dollar amount.  Otherwise, it is just like any other mortgage.

Because Saturday was Veteran's Day, and had the 11th fallen on a school day you would have that day off, even if it fell in the middle of the week. So an extra holiday day is taken when it falls on the weekend.\nMy kids had last Friday off instead.

Some people have forgotten. (Well that is just my opinion) But from my expereince people just wait for the Veterans Day holiday to come for the huge sales in all the big department stores. That is not what the holiday is about. The hoilday is about remembering those who have lost their lives in World War II and other veterens. You are also supposed to remember those who are still in war and are fighting for our freedom and our country. I can not speak for others but it looks like most people have forgotten about the veterans and Veterans Day. But I know that I have not.

During the last mortgage boom, there were a bunch of mortgage companies hiring loan officers and having them throw 2/28s and pay-option ARMs at people, not explaining the details of such things.  This was 2 years ago.  Since then, the market has slowed, such that the successful mortgage broker has relationships with realtors and builders to feed them clients, and the number of mortgage companies has decreased dramatically.  If you're going to go into the biz, now would be a good time, because we're about to boom again.  Just keep in mind that it takes a while to start, but the money is great when it's good.

you can offer anything you like.   And no you cant use your VA loan to purchase rental property. Its for your primary residence only.  Just keep that in mind Big dog.  Now  as for the offer. If I asked for 477K and you offered me  417,  I would assume you arent serious.   And move on to my next offer.   But thats just me :D

Have you tried CountryWide, Home123, Sterling Bank or LendingTree.com?  If you were a veteran I would recommend New Freedom Mortgage!

It can mean a few things:\n\n1. You cannot pay off your mortgage early. Or\n2.  No more debt will be issued against your mortgage (equity line or an additional one won't be given to you)\n\n\nCall your bank holding your mortgage and have them explain it to you asap.

Oh no. Monday. I don't think it will post on a Saturday. You might check online at your bank's website.

Yeah - I think Veteran's Day is the "new Thanksgiving" - we noticed sales on and right after Nov. 11th, Santa showing up at the mall, etc.  Greed

Going to a broker you will always have a lower rate.  Banks and credit unions pay a salary to those working for them.  They make that money by having the higher rates.  The best bet would be to shop around.  I work at a mortgage company and have worked with the credit union here so I know the difference in rate is there.

Have you being paying the mortgage on time and can prove that you have been?  Then file those documents, otherwise Banruptcy may be your only solution.\n\nGood Luck

several things could be happening here\n\nyour lender could be including private mortage insurance if you don't have 20% down and the lender requires it\n\nalso, the lender may be including fees and closing costs into the loan, which could run into thousands of dollars\n\nbe very wary of any loan where all costs are not disclosed to you in a truth-in lending statement, and if a lender or broker makes promises to you or tells you to disregard any truth-in -lending statement you do get
