Fixed or Adjustable Terms
Flexible Down Payments
Conventional Loan Highlights:
When the loan amount is within your counties loan limits, and adheres to guidelines set by Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, they are referred to as "Conventional" or "Conforming" loans. The maximum Conventional Loan limit depends on the county and state the property is located in.
Conventional loans can either be fixed-rate or adjustable-rate. With a fixed-rate mortgage, borrowers get the luxury of knowing their interest rate is set for the entire term of the loan. On the other hand, with an adjustable-rate mortgage, the borrower has an introductory rate for a fixed period followed by periodic adjustments according to the specific benchmark.
If your credit and income qualify and you want to purchase a new home in Massachusetts or Rhode Island, a conventional loan may be the right choice for you. Conventional loans require a down payments as low as 3% for a fixed-rate term or as low as 5% for an adjustable-rate.

Jumbo Loan Highlights:
When you’re buying a home that requires a mortgage above the Conventional limits in your area you would need to apply for a "Jumbo" home loan. You will need a significant income and substantial reserves to support a large home. If your credit and down payment are strong enough, a jumbo loan can give you the opportunity to get you into the home of your dreams.
We offer a wide variety of fixed, adjustable rate and interest-only Jumbo mortgages with a maximum loan amount of $3 million dollars. For highly-qualified buyers, we offer programs with loan to values and high as 90% with no mortgage insurance needed.

VA Home Loan Highlights:
This loan product helps qualified veterans, reservists, active duty service members and their spouses take advantage of zero down-payment requirements and low mortgage rates.
Qualified veterans may be able to finance up to 100% of the purchase price with no down-payment required. The VA does not require monthly mortgage insurance, however an upfront funding fee is generally required for all transactions and rolled into the loan amount.
A "qualified veteran" is someone who is in active service, or who has served and was honorably discharged from active duty in the Army, Navy, Air Force, Marine Corps, or Coast Guard. Those who were discharged because of service-connected disabilities and non-remarried surviving spouses of a service member may also qualify.

Low down-payment and flexible requirements for income, debt and credit make this loan ideal for "first time home-buyers" with limited savings.
Low credit score borrowers can still qualify for competitive rates to help keep monthly home ownership costs down.
FHA loan requirements include paying two types of mortgage insurance premiums: Up Front Mortgage Insurance Premium (UFMIP) which the borrower can pay as a lump sum in cash or include it in the loan amount, and an Annual MIP which is included as part of their monthly payment.
As of February 2023, UPMIP is 1.75% of the loan amount and "annual" MIP is approximately 0.55% of the loan amount. This amount does change from time to time so make sure you call us for updated amounts.

Low Income Borrower

USDA Home Loan Highlights:
If you’re buying a home in a rural community, you could qualify for a no-money down financing program through the Rural Housing Service (RHS), an agency of the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA).
USDA loans offer flexible down-payment options, making home ownership affordable for many rural dwellers. Surprisingly most of our country is deemed 'Rural".
This loan product is great for low-to-moderate income buyers with limited funds for down-payment and closing costs. Your mortgage insurance premium is less than what you would pay for a conventional loan or FHA loan. It’s comprised of an upfront guarantee fee of 1% of your loan amount and a annual fee 0.35% of your loan amount added to your monthly payment.
The primary residence must be located in an eligible rural area. Contact us to determine if your subject property address falls into an USDA eligible area.

Substantial Down Payment
Asset Only Home Loan Highlights:
This program caters to borrowers that don't meet Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac guidelines. Qualified borrowers may be able to finance up to 90% of a home's purchase price and up to 80% of its value for a cash-out or rate-and-term refinance. While consistent monthly income isn't required for qualification, the borrower’s “ability to repay” must be documented.
Assets used for this program must be liquid or capable of being liquidated without restrictions within 30 days. For income calculations, your available assets will be adjusted by deducting any early withdrawal penalties, down payment, closing costs, and required reserves then divided by 84. Additional documentation might be needed to verify the source of any recent large deposits in your accounts.
Typically, the interest rate on these loans is slightly higher due to the complexity of the program. Keep in mind that the value of your assets could decrease over time if you’re using them to make monthly payments.

This program is designed to provide buyers and builders with more flexibility and convenience, as they can now access the funds, they need in one simple mortgage closing. The one-time close new construction loan allows buyers to avoid the hassle of having to close multiple loans during the construction process, saving time and money. The loan is available on single-family and multifamily homes up to 4-units for any primary residence purchases.
Buyers can use the loan to purchase the home's land, pay for construction and development costs, as well as cover the costs of fixtures and appliances. During the build period, the borrower can enjoy a lower, interest-only payment.
The loan is backed by a long-term, Conventional fixed-rate mortgage and provides buyers with the peace of mind that their loan interest rate won't change over the 11-month required build time. It also offers a lower down payment than most construction loans and provides buyers with more flexibility on how they can use their loan funds. Once the loan is complete, borrowers can float down to secure a lower interest rate if the market dramatically changes or stay locked in if the market shifts higher.

Selling your home? You may owe capital gains tax on your profit. However, the IRS allows exclusions of up to $250K for individuals and $500K for married couples if you meet ownership and residency requirements.
