Purchase

Are you ready to purchase a property?

If you do not have the funds to purchase the property outright, you will need a loan. A mortgage is the type of loan acquired to purchase a property. There are many details to consider when securing a new home; affordability, income qualification, down payment, closings costs, required documentation and even the new ‘stress test’. The good news is DC Home Mortgages are here to help guide you through the process!
