1) Where did you research morgage companies and rates?
2) What company did you go with?
3) How do you like the company and their service?
4) Is it a straight 30yr fixed or a "creative" loan?
5) What are the terms and the rate?
6) Do you have online access to the account?
7) Any other info helps.
Thanks!!!

1 - I used the internet.
2 - Went with my Credit Union.
3- Love them!
4 - 30 year fixed.
5- 5.6, $0 down (first time buyer deal)
6- Yes, but you don't need it. Just mail a check once a month.
7 - We moved to Houston not knowing a whole lot more than that I wanted to be near the airport. We lucked out and found a great house in a good area. Problem is that we are in soccer-mom central. We have no kids and do not plan to change that. If we had it to do over, we'd look closer to downtown. Ideally have a place located near the fun stuff. We have to drive 35 minutes now to get to that. Guess how often we do it? Lastly, if you are going to live in Harris County, stand by for a raping on property taxes. Have fun! We're coming up on 3 years here.
