Services
Conforming Loans
Conforming loans are ideal for purchasing single-family homes with mortgages under $417,000. These loans, backed by Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac, require documentation of income, credit checks, and tax returns. Borrowers benefit from stable terms and predictable payments, making them a popular choice for first-time homebuyers and refinancers seeking reliability.
FHA Loans
FHA loans offer low down payments (as low as 3.5%) and flexible credit requirements for first-time buyers. Insured by the Federal Housing Administration, these loans allow higher debt-to-income ratios and include mortgage insurance. They provide accessible homeownership opportunities for buyers with limited savings or credit challenges.
Jumbo Loans
Jumbo loans cater to home purchases exceeding $417,000, common in high-cost areas like California. These require excellent credit, significant down payments, and thorough income verification. Borrowers gain access to competitive rates for premium properties while meeting stricter lender criteria to ensure financial stability.
VA Loans
VA loans provide no-down-payment options and no private mortgage insurance for active military members and veterans. Redwood Realty assists with eligibility certification and paperwork, ensuring veterans secure favorable terms. This program supports homeownership for those who have served, offering streamlined refinancing and purchase benefits.
Loan Modifications
Loan modifications help struggling borrowers renegotiate terms for underwater mortgages or payment relief. Redwood Realty evaluates financial hardships and negotiates with lenders to reduce rates, extend terms, or forgive debt. This service provides a lifeline for homeowners facing foreclosure or financial instability.
