Step 1

An arrangement between a borrower and a mortgage lender known as a mortgage, also known as a mortgage loan, allows the borrower to buy or refinance real estate without paying the original purchase price up front.
It is a loan a borrower can get from a bank or other financial entity to buy a house or other property. It is generally repaid via a series of periodic payments made at regular intervals.
