There are literally dozens and dozens of types of loans that you can apply for when you are looking to finance a home. The trick is narrowing down the types of loans that you feel comfortable with. Some of the more popular types of home loans are:
· FHA
· VA
· Fixed Rate
· Interest Only
· ARM
· Reverse Mortgages
All of these require that you be employed, and can present several different types of documentation that prove citizenship, income, and employment verification. They also want a listing of debts, assets, and other documents that support your ability to pay on time. If you have bad or poor credit, you may still qualify, but the interest rates will be higher, or you simply won’t be loaned as much money as you’d prefer, meaning you’d have to look at a lower priced home.
