The key takeaways are that the document outlines the loan origination process including the various modules like application origination, processing, underwriting, closing and funding. It also discusses the roles of mortgage professionals and brokers.

The main modules involved are the application origination module, processing module, underwriting module, closing module and funding module. These cover activities from gathering initial information, processing the application, risk analysis, generating closing documents and releasing funds.

During the credit check process, the applicant's credit reports are evaluated. The two main factors considered are the FICO score and debt-to-income ratio. A higher FICO score and lower debt-to-income ratio are preferred as they indicate better creditworthiness and lower risk for the lender.

Basic features of ARMs[edit]

• The most important basic features of ARMs are: [3]


• Initial interest rate. This is the beginning interest rate on an ARM.
• The adjustment period. This is the length of time that the interest rate or loan period on an ARM is scheduled to remain
unchanged. The rate is reset at the end of this period, and the monthly loan payment is recalculated.
• The index rate. Most lenders tie ARM interest rates changes to changes in an index rate. Lenders base ARM rates on a
variety of indices, the most common being rates on one-, three-, or five-year Treasury securities. Another common index is
the national or regional average cost of funds to savings and loan associations.
• The margin. This is the percentage points that lenders add to the index rate to determine the ARM's interest rate.
• Interest rate caps. These are the limits on how much the interest rate or the monthly payment can be changed at the end
of each adjustment period or over the life of the loan.
• Initial discounts. These are interest rate concessions, often used as promotional aids, offered the first year or more of a
loan. They reduce the interest rate below the prevailing rate (the index plus the margin).
• Negative amortization. This means the mortgage balance is increasing. This occurs whenever the monthly mortgage
payments are not large enough to pay all the interest due on the mortgage. This may be caused when the payment cap
contained in the ARM is low enough such that the principal plus interest payment is greater than the payment cap.
• Conversion. The agreement with the lender may have a clause that allows the buyer to convert the ARM to a fixed-rate
mortgage at designated times.
• Prepayment. Some agreements may require the buyer to pay special fees or penalties if the ARM is paid off early.
Prepayment terms are sometimes negotiable.
• It should be obvious that the choice of a home mortgage loan is complicated and time consuming. As a help to the buyer,
the Federal Reserve Board and the Federal Home Loan Bank Board have prepared a mortgage checklist.

Verifying third party vendor services

equity ( home).

house. Title insurance is added to the
borrower. Clean title is required as the lender
wants to avoid complications.

Performing the credit checks
• Evaluation of credit reports.
• Two major factors-
 FICO score- Fair Isaac & Co. Based on three major
credit union scores (Equifax, TransUnion and
Experian). Higher score the better.
 Debt to income ratio- It’s the ratio between the
total debt to date and the yearly income. Gives an
idea about the credentials of the applicant. Lower
the ratio, lower the interest rate.

risk analysis based on the credit scores and other documents like the
pay stubs, bank statements etc. gathered in the processing stage.

the credit reports permit so whereas in some cases, the credit is
denied or more documentation is requested.
