First Time Home Loan Options in Connecticut

Are you looking to get your First Time Home Loan?  Northeast Financial is the one stop company for all your mortgage needs.  We are an award-winning mortgage company that is centrally located in Middletown.  As well, we cover the entire state.

Conventional Mortgages

  • Homeready 3% down payment mortgage
    This mortgage is available to First Time Home Borrowers who have not owned a home in 3 years.  The appeal is in the 3% down payment vs. the normally required 5% down payment on other conventional mortgages.  Home ownership education courses are required.  As well, there are credit score and loan limits required on this type of loan.
  • Lender paid PMI (private mortgage insurance) mortgage
    You have no monthly mortgage insurance added into your payment.  The lender pays for your mortgage insurance in the rate provided.
  • Appraisal reimbursement available
  • PMI can be cancelled on conventional mortgages
    When you have a conventional loan, your PMI will automatically be terminated at 78% ltv.  If you would like to explore cancelling your mortgage insurance, you are able to request cancellation when you reach 80% ltv.
