Mortgage Loans

Work with a mortgage lender who's always working with your best interests in mind.

The right mortgage, the right interest rate – welcome to Ameris Bank

Ameris Bank offers plenty of mortgage options. We'll help you find the one that fits your budget and lifestyle, all while providing any guidance you need along the way.

Our mortgages make you feel right at home

Fixed-Rate Mortgages

Lock in your interest rate for the life of your loan so your monthly principal and interest payments stay predictable.

Adjustable-Rate Mortgage

With an ARM, your interest rate is fixed for a shorter period of time before adjusting to a variable rate. It's a good option if you plan to sell your home after a few years.

Construction Financing

Here's a simpler financing option when building your home. You could save on costs and fees with a one-time closing with our construction-to-permanent loan.

Down Payment Assistance Programs

If you don't have enough money saved for a traditional 20% down payment, financial assistance could be available to help you realize your dreams of homeownership.

Specialized Loans

These customized mortgages range from options for medical professionals to loans with extended rate locks to Jumbo Loans that go beyond conventional limits.

Frequently Asked Questions

Down payments vary and most times, it depends on what you and your mortgage banker decide. Remember, the higher the down payment, the lower the monthly mortgage payments. If your down payment is less than 20%, you may be required to pay for private mortgage insurance.

Pre-Qualification is the amount of a loan you qualify for based on a preliminary analysis of your assets, debts, and sources of income conducted by your Mortgage Banker. This is done before you look for a home. After you have found a home and you are ready to purchase, you will formally apply for a loan and you will be asked to provide documentation such as pay stubs, bank account information, etc.

Purchasing a single-family home and condominium are very similar, you may need additional information from the homeowners association, but either way, your mortgage banker will walk you through the process and help you collect the documents you need.

A credit report outlines your credit history, showing that you have paid your debts on time, if you have ever made a late payment or if you have failed to make a payment.

Discount points are the costs to secure a lower interest rate. One point is equivalent to 1% of the dollar amount of the loan. The more points you pay on a loan, the lower your interest rate.

The loan process normally takes several weeks. During this time, the Mortgage Banker is making sure all obligations related to your home purchase or refinance are complete.

The closing is the meeting when you will sign all of the paperwork and make the payments needed to become an official homeowner. Prior to closing, your title company, escrow company, or attorney will review the Closing Disclosure with you. This document provides the final total of your closing cost and establishes the total funds you must bring to closing. The closing typically takes 1 – 2 hours because there are so many documents that need to be signed prior to receiving the keys. The three most important documents you will sign are the note, the mortgage (also known as deed of trust) and the deed.

A professional inspection will identify any existing problems that the home or property might have – major and minor. It is a good idea to be present during the inspection so that you can ask questions and become immediately aware of any existing problems.

Depending on your loan, you may need to present proof of several types of insurance in order to close on your home including:

Homeowners or Hazard Insurance (everyone needs this). Flood Insurance, if applicable. A Lender's Title Insurance policy, which protects the bank in the amount they lent. You may also choose to purchase optional Owner's Title Insurance if your lender does not require a policy as a condition for the loan. Additionally, if your down payment is less than 20%, you will also need mortgage insurance (PMI). You mortgage banker will help you determine what types of insurance you may need to close your loan and can provide resources to help you determine what other types of insurance you may want to purchase.
