Buying a home is one of the most significant personal and financial decisions you'll make.

If you’re working with a REALTOR®, they can help you explore mortgage options and guide you through the journey. Here’s a breakdown of what you need to know:
What Is a Mortgage, and How Do You Get One?
A mortgage is a loan provided by a bank or lender that lets you finance the purchase of a home, paying it back over time with interest. Mortgages come in many forms, with the 30-year fixed-rate mortgage being one of the most popular options. A range of factors can impact your mortgage options, including:
- Down Payment
- Credit Score
- Income
- Employment History
- Current Interest Rates
- Lender Policies
