Frequently Asked Mortgage Questions

Buying or refinancing a home often comes with many questions. Here are some of the most common questions borrowers ask our team at Matador Lending.

How much down payment is required to buy a home?

Down payment requirements depend on the loan program. Some conventional loans may allow down payments as low as 3%, while FHA loans may allow 3.5%. VA loans may allow qualified borrowers to purchase with no down payment.​

 

What credit score do I need to qualify for a mortgage?

Credit score requirements vary by loan program. Conventional loans typically require higher scores, while FHA and certain Non-QM programs may offer more flexibility depending on the borrower’s financial profile.

 

What is a DSCR loan?

A DSCR (Debt Service Coverage Ratio) loan allows real estate investors to qualify based on the rental income generated by a property instead of personal income documentation.

 

How long does the mortgage approval process take?

Mortgage approvals can vary depending on the loan type and documentation required. In many cases, pre-approvals can happen quickly, while full loan approval may take a few weeks depending on underwriting and property appraisal.

 

Can self-employed borrowers qualify for a home loan?

Yes. Self-employed borrowers may qualify through programs such as bank statement loans or other Non-QM mortgage options that use alternative income documentation.
