GO Mortgage

great personal service

Jim Donovan is very understating of individual's mortgage requirement. Thanks Jim.

The number of pending home sales has decreased in recent months, especially in the Midwest, but is still up compared to last year's numbers by 21%. Experts clarify this recent decline is not a sign of a weak market, but because there are simply not enough homes for sale to keep up with demand. More on this herehttps://hubs.ly/H0G62Bl0 As vaccines begin to rollout, most expect this will result in more listings. Possibly as soon as spring.... #gomortgage #goodtogo

It was so easy!!

Jim Donovan is simply the best in the country. Great guy, responsive, always available and courteous.Need not be in Missouri, I did my complete loan living in Tennessee. i've owned 7 houses in my life and this was by far the easiest loan I've ever had. Highly recommend Jim and Go Mortgage.

Jim was polite and respectful. He treated us like family through the whole process and we never worried. Great service!

Jim was both personable and professional and most importantly, responsive and knowledgeable. I immediately felt comfortable with my refinance in his hands. The entire process was both quick and smooth. I would definitely recommend Jim to friends and family.

A new year means new goals. If 2020 sent your dreams of homeownership off the rails, it's time to reclaim and refocus your vision. You've got this! Step 1: Set your goal in writing. Bonus points if you actually commit to a specific date to get into your home by. Either way, writing it down makes it feel more real, so we recommend it. Step 2: Get your financial house in order. Pay off the right debt (credit card debt is a good place to start), get a copy of your credit ...report; evaluate your score, and check for any errors. Be sure to pay all upcoming and current bills on time and start aggressively saving for your down payment and closing costs. Step 3: Figure out how much house you can afford with our online mortgage calculator at https://hubs.ly/H0D9Xh20. When setting your house budget, don't forget that your monthly payments will also need to include property taxes and homeowners insurance. Step 4: Speak to one of our Home Loan Advisors to determine which type of loan you may qualify for. Options depend on income, credit score, location, and whether you are a candidate for special loans such as VA, FHA, etc. Knowing your options will give you a clearer picture of how much down payment is needed. ------------------- #gomortgage #mortgage #mortgageprofessional #homebuying101 #marketupdate #homebuying #realestate101 #pandemic

Jim was always available to answer our questions and guide us along in the refinancing of our mortgage. The whole process was easy and the closing went smoothly. We had an overall great experience.

As you probably know, there are mortgage loan options requiring less of a down payment than others. One such loan is called an FHA loan, a mortgage insured by the Federal Housing Administration. Depending on your credit score, your down payment could be quite low. For example, with a 580 credit score, a down payment for an FHA loan could be as low as 3.5%. They are helpful for buyers without much savings or lower credit scores. Give us a to discuss with one of our knowled...geable Home Loan Advisors. -------------------- #gomortgage #homeyouhavearrived #mortgageprofessional #homebuying101 #lovewhatyoudo #homebuying #realestate101 #fhaloans

This was my second time working with Jim. I'd do it again.

Jim was very proactive from the time we made first contact until the end of closing. He made every step in the process a pleasant experience. We have used Jim several times in the past and if the need arises we will use him again. Without reservation we would recommend Jim to others.

On this week's Mortgage Know, more on the infamous "adverse market refinance fee." Starting Dec 1, it will cost more for buyers to refinance their homes. What you should know: The fee is 0.05% of your loan amount ... Charged by the national government to lenders, who then pass it down to borrowers Affects about 70% of all standard and cash-out refis Originally meant to balance the pandemic's hit to the housing market, which has done surprisingly well NOT applied to mortgages used to buy a home Have questions? We're always here to clarify what this means for you.

In many areas, owning a home ends up costing less per month than renting a similar space . Still, many hidden costs of ownership go under the radar for those considering buying a home. Planning for these costs can be the difference between keeping and losing your home, especially when unexpected hardship strikes. Top expenses buyers forget to factor in when considering how much house they can afford:... 1. Closing costs - thousands of dollars of fees for undergoing the mortgage process. Plan on 2-5% of the loan amount 2. Property taxes, mortgage insurance, homeowners insurance, hazard insurance. Get quotes ahead of time and work with a mortgage or RE expert to calculate local property taxes 3. Maintenance - expensive repairs like a new roof and even routine fixes such as pest treating and leaky faucets add up. Set aside at least $2-5k annually for home maintenance and don't touch it Follow our page for more home buying tips! -------------------- #gomortgage #homebuying101 #homeyouhavearrived #homebuying #realestate101 #mortgage #mortgagelending #homeloans #newhomes #loanofficer #realtors See more
