Previously unmentioned fees turn up on application at closing. Again, by presenting these previously undisclosed fees at closing time, borrower is pressured to sign.
Blanks on application form. It’s hard to believe that a lender would present a blank form and assure borrower that blanks will be filled in later, but this actually happens, and borrowers actually sign such deals. Remember, your signature on form constitutes your agreement to terms, even if terms are filled in later.
These problems can be avoided by taking a few simple precautionary steps. Ask about total fees and interest rates ahead of time. Inform your lender that you fully expect to see those same figures on documents at closing, and make it clear that you will not sign documents that state otherwise. Make certain that you have provided honest information to lender. Refuse to sign any blank documents. These things may seem obvious, but when closing approaches, borrowers tend to get in a hurry, as they are eager to get closing out of way. Borrowing against your home is not something to take lightly; you can lose your home if you unknowingly sign a predatory document. Take your time.
