Conventional Loans

One of the most common loan programs that offers competitive interest rates and requires down payments ranging from 3% to 20%. Down payments less than 20% require mortgage insurance. Standard documentation and fair-to-good credit score are necessary to qualify.

VA Loans

Offering Veterans, US Military service members and eligible surviving spouses benefits through a VA loan program. Loans guaranteed by the Department of Veterans’ Affairs, no down payment or mortgage insurance required. The VA guaranty gives lenders greater degree of safety and flexibility which result in more competitive interest rates than non-VA loans.

FHA Loans

Insured by the Federal Housing Administration. Offers down payment as low as 3.5% in addition to a less stringent qualification process which is an attractive option to first time homebuyers. To protect lenders from a loss if the borrower should default, mortgage insurance is required on all FHA loans.

Rural Housing Loans (USDA)

Government backed loans, lending up to 100% of the home’s appraised value. Qualifying properties must be located in USDA defined rural areas and communities to be eligible for USDA loan programs.

Jumbo Loans

Gershman Mortgage offers loan programs for loan amounts greater than the high balance loan limits. Lower debt-to-income ratios, higher credit and larger down payments are required on this type of loan.

ARMS

Adjustable rate mortgages offer lower initial interest rate in comparison to fixed-rate mortgages. Cap limits moderate how much the interest rate can change from one year to the next.

FHA 203K

A home loan that’s crafted for both renovation and financing. You love the house, but the kitchen is too small; Or, you love the neighborhood, but the house needs a complete makeover.

Closing costs and prepaids must be paid by the borrower in cash or paid through premium pricing or by the seller (up to 6%).

Provides a convenient and flexible way for borrowers considering home improvements to make repairs and renovations with a first mortgage, rather than a second mortgage, home equity line of credit or other more costly methods of financing. The borrower can use this loan to purchase appliances, or non-structural improvements that substantially upgrade the rooms in which appliances and improvements are placed. Renovation amount can be 75% of estimated ‘as completed’ value. 

80/10/10
