Mortgage FAQs
What's the difference between a fixed-rate and an adjustable-rate mortgage?
With a fixed-rate mortgage, your interest rate stays the same for the life of your loan. With an adjustable rate, your loan begins with a fixed rate for a specified period of time and then adjusts higher or lower based on an index throughout the life of the loan.
What’s the difference between an interest rate and an annual percentage rate (APR)?
An interest rate is the cost you pay annually to borrow money, expressed as a percentage of your total loan. In contrast, APR includes the interest rate plus other costs, such as mortgage insurance, discount points and some closing costs and loan origination fees.
Do I need to be a member to get a mortgage?
Yes, membership must be obtained by at least 1 borrower for initial loan approval. Any additional non-member borrower(s) must become a member as a condition of loan approval. Learn about becoming a member.
How can I get preapproved for a mortgage?
After you submit your loan application, you may be instantly preapproved if we have all the documentation we need. If that's the case, you'll be able to access your preapproval letter in the Documents section of HomeSquad, our loan management portal. Keep in mind that we often need additional information after you submit your application. In that case, a home loan advisor will contact you in 1 to 2 business days to discuss next steps.
How long does it take to close on a mortgage?
It typically takes 30 days to close on your mortgage once you’ve submitted all required paperwork and documents. However, closing times vary based on many factors, so check with your home loan advisor early in the process to better understand when you can expect to close.
If you're planning to refinance your home, closing times are estimated to take 30–45 days.
What are discount points?
Discount points are optional fees you can pay directly to Navy Federal at closing in exchange for a reduced interest rate. One point is equal to 1% of the total loan amount. Depending on how long you plan to be in your home, it might make sense to pay these points and obtain a lower rate.
