BEFORE YOU CHOOSE A LOAN
Read the boundary between your policy and the association's
For a Des Moines condo purchase, ask which parts of the building the master policy covers and what your own policy must cover. Review deductibles and possible assessments with qualified professionals. Compare the combined cost of the loan, dues and insurance rather than judging a unit by price alone.
Does the association's insurance replace my own coverage?
Do not assume so. Ask your insurer to identify the coverage and deductible responsibilities for the specific unit.
MAKE IT YOURS
Does the monthly cost fit your life?
Put an actual Des Moines property alongside your comfort limit. Use a lender estimate for principal, interest and mortgage insurance; add the costs it may leave out.
Fill in all six amounts to see the comparison. Enter 0 only for costs that do not apply.
Planning only. This does not calculate a mortgage payment or determine approval. Estimates can change. These inputs stay in this page and are not submitted or saved.
ALREADY OWN IN DES MOINES?
Your next move might be staying put.
Include updated dues and insurance in any refinance payment comparison.
The sample uses fictional numbers. A home-value estimate is not an appraisal, and equity is not automatically available to borrow.
