If you are convinced that you understand what you are getting into and happy with it
, you need to fill out your mortgage application. Get all your documents out ready to fill the form. The application form needs to be complete and reflects the true picture of your financial position. Incomplete applications will not be considered by the mortgage underwriters. While you are filling your application, put yourself into the shoes of the lender. Try to give them reasons to give you mortgage. If you have a particular issue, such as one missed payment in your otherwise clean mortgage payment history, provide full explanation and documentation.
