In our commitment to continuously improve our services and better support our members, NCJAR has made the strategic decision to permanently close the Westfield location on Monday, November 18, 2024.

By reallocating resources, we can provide more robust services, innovative programs, and valuable member benefits. -
Upgrade Technology
Our focus is on adopting cutting-edge tools to streamline operations, simplify processes, and improve your experience as a member. -
Expand Educational and Networking Opportunities
This change allows us to host even more events, classes, and opportunities for professional growth throughout our service areas.
Where Can You Go for NCJAR Services?
Buying a home is one of the most significant personal and financial decisions you'll make. For many buyers, a key part of the process is securing a loan that allows you to pay for your new home over time. 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
