How do you know when your mortgage loan is approved? Typically, your loan officer will call or email you once your loan is approved. Sometimes, your loan processor will pass along the good news.4

While it’s rare, the short answer is yes. After your loan has been deemed “clear to close,” your lender will update your credit and check your employment status one more time. Even if you left your job for another job with equal pay, your loan could still be denied, or delayed, depending on the type of loan you have.15

Fortunately, a lower score at closing is not all by itself a reason to increase your mortgage rate or decline your loan. Credit scores move up and down all the time, and a small drop won’t cause the lender to reprice your mortgage or reverse your loan approval. If you don’t, you’ll no longer have a loan.9

A question many buyers have is whether a lender pulls your credit more than once during the purchase process. The answer is yes. Lenders pull borrowers’ credit at the beginning of the approval process, and then again just prior to closing.

When purchasing a new house, it’s best to close as late in the month as possible if low closing costs are your goal. You don’t make your first house payment at closing, but the lender wants you to pay interest for each day you own the home. If you close on the 1st, you have to pay interest for every day in that month.

The best day to close a home purchase, or a mortgage refinance, is on the last business day of the month, unless it falls on a Monday. Then you should close on the preceding Friday so you don’t have to pay interest over a weekend. Here’s why. Mortgage interest is paid in arrears.24

Home sellers should always empty the home completely unless there is an agreement in place, otherwise it could create a problem at the final walk-through.

Unless you’re paying cash for the home, choose a closing date that’s convenient for you, the seller and your mortgage lender. Most people schedule the closing date for 30-to-45 days after the offer has been accepted – and they do this for good reason.6

You may want to consider postponing your December closing until January of next year, if it will benefit you on your tax return. The normal allowable home purchase deductions will be the points, interest, and property taxes which you pay.
