Look around for low-down-payment options.

In today’s mortgage industry, having an excellent credit and a stable income would bring more weight than a big down payment. Currently, there are first-time buyer programs that you can look into.

Trust the process of getting a mortgage.

We know that it is a hassle for you to gather and submit pay slips, tax returns, and letters from employers or bank managers. You may even be annoyed at receiving frequent phone calls from your broker for weeks. But there’s a reason for all of this. Mortgage lenders just want to ensure that you are financially capable of paying the monthly mortgage premiums. Once your mortgage gets approved, you’ll realize how all the hassle is worth it.
