Variety of Loan Types

Embrace Home Loans offers a variety of different loans. Its home loan options include:

• Conventional Loan
• FHA Loan
• VA Loan
• USDA Loan
• Jumbo Loan
• 203(k) Renovation and Rehab Loan

These options make it easy to find an affordable mortgage rate that works for you.

It should be noted that Embrace Home Loans offers a 203(k) renovation and rehab loan. This type of loan is not common among all mortgage companies. For those that are looking into buying a foreclosed home a 203(k) loan is a great option that is tailored to this specific type of home purchase. Foreclosed homes are often a risky purchase, but it is easier to fund with a 203(k) loan.

Refinancing Options

The company is equipped to refinance mortgages in order to lower homeowners' monthly payments, remodel your home, or begin debt consolidation by paying off high-interest credit cards, car loans, or medical bills. As a direct mortgage lender, Embrace Home Loans can streamline the refinance process to close in just weeks (versus months). Cash-out refinance or equity refinancing is also available. 

Embrace Home Loans opens up refinancing to a wider range of borrowers through its two specialized programs — these two programs replace previous Home Affordable Refinance Program (HARP) loans:

• Refi Possible
• RefiNow

The Refi Possible and RefiNow programs can help you roll up to $5,000 into closing costs into your mortgage, benefit from a reduced interest rate and lower monthly payment, and receive a $500 credit for an appraisal if required.

Even if you just bought your home a few years ago and have not built up significant equity on your home, Embrace Home Loans makes it possible for you to refinance. If you have a high debt-to-income ratio and low credit access, Embrace Home Loans has a number of programs that make refinancing a possibility.

Quick Pre-Approval

Once you have submitted an Embrace mortgage application you can be pre-approved within one business day. If you are pre-approved you aren't obligated to proceed with the loan offer. You won't be charged any fees until you choose to proceed after pre-approval.

Extended Rate Lock

Through Embrace Home Loans' Extended Rate Lock program your rate is protected for up to 360 days, near an entire year. This rate lock is also flexible, allowing you to float down your rate within 30 days of closing (this is a one-time option).

The extended rate lock is only available for conventional, FHA, and VA loans.

On-Time Closing Guarantee

According to Embrace, it is the lender's responsibility to make sure things run smoothly and efficiently. In fact, the company is so confident in its efficiency that it will pay you $2,500 if it is to blame for your conventional, VA loan, or FHA loan closing later than expected.

This payment guarantee is motivation for your loan officer to work quickly and serves as a consolation if you're dissatisfied and don't close a purchase on account of the company.

Approved to Move™ Program

Embrace claims its Approved to Move™ full approval program puts you a step ahead of other potential buyers who are only pre-qualified or pre-approved by their lenders. Through Embrace, you can get a full loan approval before you find the home you want to make an offer on.

This unique program can help you secure your dream home faster, and is unique in the mortgage industry and can give you an important leg up in a competitive market. You'll be able to approach sellers with an offer that lasts up to 90 days.

Mobile App

The Embrace Home Loans mobile app gives borrowers, real estate agents, and loan officers access to loan information and status, chat communication, and notification reminders for important dates like appraisal, loan commitment, closing, and rate lock.
