Buying a new home is serious business and we at Sentinel Mortgage want to make it as painless as possible.  View our online mortgage term FAQ first then follow through the steps below to see how you measure up when buying a new home.

With the high cost of rent these days you may be better off with buying a new home then renting one.  Here is a simple quiz and if you can answer yes to all three questions you should consider a mortgage:

1. Do you have decent credit?

2. Do you have good job stability?

3. Do you have access to a down payment?

Try our online Rent vs. Buy calculator to compare the cost of renting vs. the cost of buying a home. This calculator will compare the tax, fees, and interest you will pay when buying a home to the monthly rent you pay when renting. It does not include payments made against the principal on your loan, since those payments become equity in your home.

So you have determined that you should buy instead of rent but what size of mortgage could you qualify for?  We have simplified this question by providing you with an online Mortgage Qualification Calculator.

So you are ready to buy your new home.  You have picked out the house you like, checked our mortgage rates, and secured the down payment.   Now all you need is to calculate your monthly payments with our online Mortgage Calculator.
