Additionally, you may need funds to cover your closing costs (2-5% of the loan amount) if you choose not to roll them into your new loan.
Application Submission and Approval
You can complete your loan application online or in person, by submitting the necessary documentation. Once your application is approved, you’ll receive a loan estimate which offers specific terms for your loan. If you agree to these terms, you’ll sign paperwork and submit it to your lender. After this, you simply need to wait for the loan to close (can take up to several weeks). At closing, you’ll receive and sign your new mortgage paperwork and, if you chose a cash-out refinance, your payout.
