I am new to the mortgage process, and I have a question regarding underwriting. What is the REAL difference between manual and auto approval? For instance, if my mid score is say 700, but there is a baddie present, will an auto approval guarantee loan funding or at some point will human eyes review each tradeline and possibly place conditions on the loan? Thanks all!

Automated approvals are a good indicator of how the process will go however it is never a guarantee. It is only as good as the info you put in and your ability to document and prove what you share (income assetts etc.). Human eyes will always be the final say - The big difference is that automated has higher tolerances than an underwriter would if it were a manual. They must follow the guidelines for debt to income so you could end up qualifying for less..Thanks all!

      BofA UW timeframe
      By MJPEREZ77
      Just wondering if anyone has ever app'd with BofA and had it take the full 30 days that they say it may take. Just app'd with them on the 1st day of the app spree for DW (8/30) and they still say it is under review. Wondering if she should call and try talking to the UW dept, any suggestions?
       
      Thanks,

      Loan application submitted to underwriter
      By brookesmommy2006
      My Loan app was submitted with all requested docs to the underwriter for review on WED 5/14 and I was told that I should have the final word by Mon/Tues next week. I'm nervous that something will go wrong. I have an anticipated close date of July 10th. I also received my GFE and lenders version of anticipated closing costs- cash to close. The seller is paying $8640 toward closing and I paid a $500 earnest deposit. Total on GFE is 12035.41. Per the lender's estimate: My total cash to close is $5399 (but my lender says it will be less because this # includes fees that I have to pay up front- such as appraisal and 1 yr of Homeowners Ins)- so we figure $4300. Any thoughts? I am concerned that I am going to need significantly more at closing than I will have in funds. I will talk to him Monday but just wanted other opinions.

      Qualifying for a Grad Plus Loan
      By prosper711
      I will be going to grad school next year, and it is a very expensive school. I will be taking a Stafford loan, but will still need a plus loan to afford school. I have many baddies and charge offs, but they are all from 5-6 years ago with the exception of a 200 charge off from Verizon from a year ago.
       
      My questions: will the older baddies keep me from getting approved for a plus loan
      and
      will the small and recent verizon charge off keep me from getting the plus loan?
       
      I really want to attend the school. Thanks.

      Navy Federal NFCU Mortgage - Homebuyers Choice- In the process
      By ta1967
      Hello to everyone.
      I’m going through the process of buying a home. I did a pre-qualification with Navy
      Federal back in July. We really
      couldn’t find anything we were that interested in and wondered if we should
      wait until our credit is a little better. We’ve been rebuilding over the past year and have really
      crossed some hurdles.

      As it turned out, we found a house a couple of weeks
      ago. We made an offer and it was
      accepted. So, we did an
      application over the phone with NFCU.
      By the way, they have the absolute best people working for them. I spent over an hour chatting with the
      girl taking my application. She
      was so helpful and inspiring!

      Next, I was contacted by the LO with an email asking for
      some info on employment (we are self employed), and an explanation letter
      regarding a couple of charge offs on my husbands report. They also wanted an explanation letter
      for that as well as inquiries in the past 120 days.

      My middle number was 695 but my husband’s was 658. I didn’t realize that they base it on
      the lowest score.

      So I sent everything to her and waited on pins and
      needles. I finally called her on a
      Friday just before they closed – (about 3 days later) and she told me we were
      approved! I was beyond happy. She gave me a long list of the things she
      needed (taxes, rent contact information for the past 2 years, bank statements. I got nearly everything ready over the
      weekend and started sending on Monday.

      Later that week, I was contacted by a processor, who asked
      for more information – 1099s , explanations for every address on both our
      credit reports and a few other things.
      I got all of those together as quickly as possible and sent them to
      her.

      Now comes the waiting game and let me say that it is harder
      than waiting for an overdue baby to be born. I literally can’t sleep. I check my email a few hundred times a day and find it
      nearly impossible to concentrate on work.

      I did hear from my realtor that the appraiser came out this
      weekend but I have heard nothing about it. Does anyone know how long the appraisal process takes? How long before the credit union gets
      the info before I hear? I have a
      million questions.

      I also keep wondering if there is any special meaning to the
      appraisal being ordered. In my
      heart of hearts, I really want to believe it is something positive relating to
      the loan – like they feel it might turn out okay??? Hopeful! Or is
      it just another step in the process.
      I have no idea where I am at this point and don’t want to call and bug
      them.

      I must say, they have the nicest – most professional people
      working for them. My loan officer
      was so incredibly nice and helpful.
      I feel as if I’ve made new friends – which is a far cry from what I’m
      sure the old stuffy banks would feel like.

      I’m just really looking for any info anyone can give me on
      the process – especially if you have dealt with NFCU doing a mortgage. I have nothing but wonderful things to
      say about them in regards to checking, savings, credit cards and LOC.

      Until I hear something, I am in the process of reading every
      single post on every board I can find about the mortgage process and everyone’s
      experience.

      This is a great board.
      I’ve taken my scores and reports to places I could not have imagined a
      year ago. Please keep your fingers
      crossed for me that this will be my next giant step into home ownership!
       
      Thank you!
       
      P.S. Would love
      to hear your thoughts and where you think I am now. We are scheduled to close on October 14 but I would love to
      do it sooner. We have a lease that
      is up at the end of this month and we really need to let our landlord know by
      the end of this month. I’m hoping
      to get some sort of answer by then.
