You Can Apply for a Home-Loan in 6 Easy Steps
We here at Affiliated Mortgage want to make sure that your Mortgage Process is as simple and efficient as possible. Here are the six steps to guide you through the whole process. It’s really not difficult at all! And Affiliated Mortgage will make it more convenient for you, at the lowest mortgage rates.
1. Get your Mortgage Pre-Approval
You can get an assessment of your financial situation and be informed about the loan amount you qualify for. You need to get all your documents organised for this step. It makes house-hunting easier because it saves you the hassle of searching for houses that are outside your price range.
2. Purchase your House
With your price range in mind, you can carry out a more focused house-hunt. You can search online on websites like Zillow to look at some options that may attract you. Get in touch with a real estate agent and visit the properties to make your decision. Finally, once you’ve picked a house, you make an offer and sign a purchase agreement.
3. Apply for a Mortgage Loan
You need to fill in a loan application, which is standardised for most lenders. You will need to provide personal information (income, employment and assets) as well as that regarding the house you are buying and the type of loan you’re applying for. At the end of this step, you will get a Loan Estimate.
4. Get your Loan Processed
At this stage, alongside the documents you have provided with your application, the lender may also order credit reports, and verify your income and assets.
5. Get the Underwriting
This is the most crucial step, where the underwriter evaluates your application, and either accepts or rejects it. He evaluates the risk factor, and might approve the loan with certain conditions in some cases.
6. Get your Loan Approved
The Closing Disclosure confirms the costs in the Loan Estimate. You must review the Disclosure, 3 days prior to the closing, and the documents will be sent to the title company.

it was a very straight forward as easy process to work with Melissa Everhart. She helped us avoid making a possibly bad financial decision with a home we were looking into, and referred us to an insurance company with more affordable rates than the company we were currently using. I recommend her if you're in the Rapid City area

This is the 2nd time we have personally worked with Danny Battochio and Affiliated Mortgage, and each time it has been a fantastic experience. Danny is the consummate professional, and I would recommend working with Danny to anyone!

Vern and Amy are great at being right on top of everything you need to refinance your mortgage in a short time frame. It was simple, done quickly, and a fast turn around. With Covid, everything was done online and through email. I don't even know what Amy looks like...lol. These two will get everything done for you that you need and answer all questions in a very timely manner. I highly recommend Affiliated for all your mortgage needs.
Robert M.

When we decided it was time to buy a house, Affiliated Mortgage was our first and only choice. Our mortgage loan officer, Melissa, is very knowledgeable about the VA loan process and guided us every step of the way. Her expertise was invaluable and provided us with piece-of-mind. We will return to Affiliated Mortgage for our future mortgage needs and we would absolutely recommend them to anyone.
Jacob D.
I cannot express my appreciation enough. Troy and his team really "Went to bat for me" during the whole loan process. Every obstacle we encountered was dealt with by Troy and his team. There was clear communication during the whole process. I was very happy with the service and friendly/ positive attitude that greeted you on the phone.

Danny was wonderful to work with, he was very knowledgeable and made the process easy to understand. As first time buyers we were nervous about the process, but danny was always available to answer any questions we had!! I would recommend Danny to anybody that's looking to buy a home. Thanks for everything Danny, it was much appreciated!!

Being a homeowner is something I‘d always believed was beyond my grasp; I’d resigned myself to the idea that’d I be a renter, paying someone else’s mortgage, for the rest of my life. Today I officially became a homeowner for the first time and Ryan is the man that made it happen.
From the moment we started the mortgage process, Ryan has set a new standard for the phrase “on the ball”. His quick turnaround in finding me mortgage options and answering the myriad questions I had was beyond impressive and I truly got the sense that he was working every angle he could to find me the best solutions. I’ve heard countless horror stories from friends in the past about their mortgage process and I’m thrilled to say I don’t have any of my own to contribute.
Thank you, Ryan! Believe me when I say, I COULD NOT have done it without you!

We had the opportunity to work with Troy and had an amazing experience. As first time buyers, we didn't know much about the process but Troy always took the time to explain everything and gave us many different options that we weren't even aware of. He was genuinely trying to help us in every step. With his help, we got a great rate on our loan, had a very stress free and smooth process. We appreciate his help so much and definitely recommend him! It was a real pleasure to work with him.

It was a pleasure working with Troy and his team. Dealing with us from 700 miles away had to be a challenge but the value-added he provided made it easy for us and he gained our trust quickly and early on. He helped with insurers in the area and recommended inspections firms, etc. Very professional and i believe we made a friend also!!!
Dylan S.
We have been looking to refinance our first home to keep it as a rental and with rates being at an all time low decided now was the best time to do so. Zachery quickly got us locked in at an excellent rate and not only lowered it more than a percent, but also lowered our monthly payment by several hundred dollars. His efficiency and character showed me that it wasn't just a job to him, but he actually cared about helping us now and long term. He was always so personable and it showed that he wanted the best for me and my family in this process. From the beginning of the process to the end Zachery was great to work with.
Douglas W.
Ryan is amazing. He got straight to the point (just the way i like it) and got things done quickly and efficiently. Whenever there were minor hiccups, he did everything in his power to resolve it without me having to be involved. i couldn't have asked for a better experience.
Carl M.
Had a great experience working with Affiliated during the Pandemic. Almost everything was done online or over the phone with little to no issue. Was able to lower the interest on our mortgage by over 1 and 1/2 percent. Would work with them again.

She is experienced and very knowledgeable so nothing is ever missed and it all goes smoothly. She moves the process forward efficiently, keeping us informed every step of the way. We highly recommend working with Sarah to walk you through the process.

I ended up at Affiliated by chance. (I drive past there almost every day) when I decided to get serious about purchasing my first home I decided to stop it. I did shop around but no one could come close to offering me what Vern did.I couldn’t have chosen a better lender, affiliated will be my go to. The one I recommend to anyone who asks.Hoping to send you clients and more reviews like this one.Thank you for your kindness, humanity and honesty.Shelly

Alesha did a great job of guiding and supporting us through this process. Refinancing is stressful, but Alesha made sure we understood everything that was needed, helped us avoid snags, and answered all our questions and concerns in a timely manner. I would recommend her to anyone considering refinancing or buying a home.
Jessica K.
Melissa made sure that our first home buying venture ,mixed with a military move across country, was seemless. She listened to every question and concern. She always answered in a way that made the process easy to understand. Melissa understands as a military spouse just how difficult a pcs can be, and she made sure we had no surprises. She worked closely with our realtor and insurance agent. Can’t say enough about the integrity and professionalism!
Robin M.
Mike Fischer was very helpful and compassionate through the loan process. He answered all my questions and made the process to this fresh start enjoyable.

Whitney S.
My husband and I recently decided to refinance our home. We worked with Zachery Blair and he made the whole experience so pleasant and easy. He was quick to answer all of our questions and go above and beyond to ensure that we saved the most money and received the best rate possible. He answered our calls and emails at all times of the day, making me wonder if there was any time he wasn't working. Zachery personally showed up at our closing to help if we had any questions and also for any support we needed. If we ever purchase another home we will definitely be reaching out to Mr. Blair and Affiliated Mortgage again.
Monetha Erin B.
Mike Fischer went above and beyond for us. I'm so thankful to have crossed paths with this guy. He is amazing and I would definitely recommend him.

My husband and I worked with Alesha to purchase our first home and couldn’t have had a better experience! Neither one of us had any idea what the process entailed, but she was able to walk us thru every aspect of the qualification process and make it as simple and straightforward as possible! Anytime we had a question she was always available by email or text and was prompt in her replies! The entire process with Alesha at Affiliated was undoubtedly made easier by her knowledge and enthusiasm for what she does! I highly recommend anyone looking to buy or refinance to get into contact with Alesha!
Diane C.

Sarah made the process for buying my house super easy 2 years ago. She always told me if there was something wrong or what I needed to do to ensure the process went smoothly and I really appreciate that! Especially being a first time home owner. We refinanced a couple weeks ago and it was just as quick and easy. I highly recommend Sarah if you or your friend need a loan officer!
