Frequently Asked Questions
What is a mortgage broker and how do they differ from a bank?
A mortgage broker acts as an intermediary between you and multiple lenders, while a bank offers only its own loan products. Brokers can compare rates and terms from different sources to find options that fit your needs. In California, brokers must follow strict disclosure rules under the California Financing Law.
What documents do I need to apply for a mortgage in Malibu?
You typically need recent pay stubs, W-2 forms, tax returns, bank statements, and proof of assets. California lenders also require a property appraisal and a credit check. Self-employed borrowers may need additional income documentation.
