Minimum borrower requirements
AmeriSave Mortgage Corporation has a variety of loan products for both new homebuyers and those who wish to refinance. For FHA loans, buyers need a minimum 3.5 percent down payment. Conventional mortgage loans through AmeriSave require at least a 5 percent down payment. As with most mortgage companies, the specific loans offered are dependent on the borrower’s creditworthiness, income and other factors.
The company is committed to educating borrowers on the various loans available to them, so it’s advisable to connect with one of AmeriSave’s licensed mortgage originators to discuss options. The lender’s website offers a “Knowledge Center” covering educational topics such as first-time homebuyer tools and more.
