Talk to your loan officer to see what interest rate they will be offering you.  I depends on your credit score.  If you need to improve your score talk to them and they will tell you what to do.

As you can see above, the most common loan type seller’s are looking for right now is a Conventional loan. It helps to get familiar with the different types of loans.

Take the extra step and get all your financial information to a loan officer and have them put you through underwriting so you know how much you are approved for before looking at homes.  It will put you in a better position if you are up against other offers.  I think they should of been doing this all along.  It is hard to wait until a week before closing to find out you are approved.  Sometimes there is last minute things that come up and so late in the game are hard to resolve so your closing date gets moved.
