Purchasing a Mortgage Home Loan

If you qualify for a FHA home loan, you may obtain a FHA streamline loan with a low down payment. American veterans, may qualify for up to 103% of the value of the purchase property if you’re buying a home in Massachusetts.

Have you ever wanted to own some of the sweet goodness of maple syrup that only Massachusetts can supply? Do you live in a rural area? Do you want to make the dream of home ownership a reality? Then a USDA home loan is a specialized loan in which you may qualify while buying a house in Massachusetts. Our experienced mortgage loan officers will help determine whether you and the property are eligible for USDA guaranteed loans.

FHA Home Loans

Another loan we offer is the FHA loan. This is a special kind of financing created for houses that need to be rehabilitated. FHA programs are designed to revitalize neighborhoods and to repair homes that are damaged or in need of improvements. As such, the FHA streamline loan covers the cost of the house and the necessary repairs.

USDA Home Loans

As an approved USDA lender, Drew Mortgage Associates, Inc. is excited to bring you the option of a USDA rural housing loan. For those who qualify, 100% financing may be available, finally bringing the dream of home ownership within reach. With interest rates that are lower than those offered with traditional mortgage loans and flexible guidelines, a USDA rural home loan could help you achieve your financial goals. Eligibility for USDA rural housing loans is based both on the property and the borrower. The property must be located in a rural development eligible area, and it must be occupied as your primary residence. Your Drew Mortgage Associates mortgage loan office in MA can help you determine whether there are properties near you that qualify. Even if you do not consider your area “rural,” you may be surprised to learn there are eligible properties nearby. To qualify for a USDA rural development home loan a borrower must meet income (people who earn above a certain threshold are ineligible), credit, and employment requirements and be a US citizen, Resident-Alien, or a qualified non-Resident Alien. Contact us today and we’ll help you determine whether or not you may be eligible for USDA home loans. If a USDA home loan is not a good fit for you, don’t worry, we have a wide variety of home loan programs that may help you to meet your goals.

VA Loan Program

The VA Home Loan Program helps veterans purchase or refinance homes through VA-approved mortgage companies like Drew Mortgage Associates. VA home loans are allowed up to $417,000 and more in some areas with closing costs and fewer fees than those required for conventional loans. With money-saving options for qualified borrowers (e.g. no down payment or mortgage insurance requirement), the VA home loan program also is designed specifically for the unique challenges facing service members and their families. VA home loans allow for seller contributions, gifts or grants to minimize or eliminate closing costs – a benefit that almost no other loan programs can offer. Competitive rates and no mortgage insurance requirement may help to lower monthly payments. We also offer Jumbo VA loans up to $650,000.
