Partners Financial will normally request that you lock a rate only after the loan request has been approved and the satisfactory appraisal showing sufficient value has been received.
Rates are normally locked for 45 days. If the lock expires before you make it to closing, the rate will be subject to change.
Once you lock your rate, your loan officer will do everything necessary to ensure that the loan progresses toward closing in a timely manner.
However, it will be your responsibility to ensure that you provide all requested documents, information, and decisions to your loan officer as soon as reasonably possible.
Partners Financial cannot anticipate whether interest rates will go up or down during the loan-processing period. So, any decision about whether to lock or not should be based on your own evaluation of the market.
Yes. You should submit a complete application in order to be pre-approved and obtain a pre-approval letter.
Pre-approvals are good for only 90 days. If the pre-approval expires, you will be required to re-apply.
No. We do not charge an application fee.
Your loan officer will work to find any other available options for you (for example, a lesser loan amount) and will contact you to discuss them with you.
If there is not sufficient value for other options or if the appraisal determines that the property is not in satisfactory condition to offer other loan options, the loan process will end.
You will receive a copy of the appraisal to review. Please remember that the appraisal fee is non-refundable.
The appraisal cost is a non-refundable, out-of-pocket expense. For properties local to the Richmond area, the cost is approximately $450.
For properties located outside of the local area and properties in states outside of Virginia, the cost is approximately $500. Once you have received your loan approval, the appraisal fee will be due.
The loan approval will be conditional pending a satisfactory appraisal showing sufficient value being received. The appraiser cannot be engaged until the appraisal fee has been deposited.

The APR should not be confused with the actual rate. Your monthly payments will be based on the actual interest rate, the amount you borrow, and the term of your loan.
The APR is a figure designed to express the cost of credit as a yearly rate. Some, but not all, closing costs are required to be used in calculating the APR.
You can use the APR as a guideline when shopping for a mortgage loan. However, since not all closing costs/fees are included in the calculation and since lenders vary widely with regard to how they interpret certain fees, you should be sure to compare actual rates and total fees as well.
The costs will vary from loan to loan. Partners Financial provides a Good Faith Estimate of closing costs within 3 business days of receiving a completed mortgage application.
The Good Faith Estimate provides a detailed estimate of the closing costs specific to your loan request. Your loan officer can provide more details regarding closing costs.
No. Partners Financial does not charge prepayment penalties.
