Mortgage Prequalification: Bay Head, Spring Lake and Brick New Jersey home buying, real estate listings, and homes for sale in Ocean and Monmouth County, NJ

Welcome > For Buyers > Mortgage Prequalification ...

Don't Go Shopping for a New Home Before You Know Exactly How Much You Can Spend!

You might have an idea of the loan payment and mortgage you can afford. But will the bank feel otherwise? It's always best to pre-qualify for a mortgage so you know exactly how much a financial institution would be willing to lend you.

In the pre-qualification process, you will find out:

- Exactly how much home or land you can afford.

- How much cash you will need for the down payment.

- The minimum down payment, and advantages of higher down payments.

- What the bank feels you can afford for a monthly payment.

We help buyers pre-qualify for mortgages every day. Simply fill out the form below to get started.

Remember: we will respect your privacy! We know this is your personal information, and we will not distribute it to anyone, other than to our preferred mortgage broker. This service is also provided free of charge, without any obligation on your part. It is part of our job as top Bay Head, Spring Lake and Brick REALTORSŽ to offer services such as these.

Once you fill out the form, we will quickly process your information and get right back to you!

Tax Considerations >Beneficial Tax Laws

American tax law offers a significant capital gains tax exemption that allows taxpaying homeowners to unlock home equity and end the spiraling cycle of "investing up." First-time buyers enjoy expanded rules for Individual Retirement Accounts (IRA) and 401(k) plans, rules that allow penalty-free withdrawals to purchase a home.

Every two years, married sellers of principal residences who file joint federal income tax returns are allowed a $500,000 exclusion ($250,000 for singles) from capital gains tax. For sales that took place after May 6, 2003, the maximum capital gains tax rates for profits above the exclusion dropped from 20% to 15% for higher income taxpayers, and from 10% to 5% for lower income taxpayers.

Homeowners can now consider several new options. People who find themselves at an empty-nester stage (no children at home) in a four or five bedroom home with a large equity have been able to unlock their equity dollars, using the income to help their children buy a first home, take a luxury cruise, remodel the house or purchase a second home for vacation or retirement.

Consult your tax advisor for advice regarding your particular circumstance.

Q	What is the maximum interest you can deduct on your federal tax return to purchase or improve a first or second home?
A	One of the greatest benefits of home ownership is the federal tax deduction for interest up to, but not exceeding, $1million.
