You'll have to get the home appraised as of when you apply (the bank will actually do that and will then charge you for it in the loan's closing costs) | |

| Aug 8, 2012 at 21:44 | comment | added | Mike | Guess I didnt put in the exact numbers... we payed 20% at closing 5 months ago so a little more than 20%. Have not spoke with the bank. I guess the other option is to contact my wifes student loan company and see if we can consolidate into one | |
