Carefully review the estimated closing costs. If you decide to lock in the rate, the lender will send you a "good faith estimate" of your closing costs within three days.

Make sure the new title is correct. The fact is, most people never see their deed before it's recorded at the county court house, says Gumbinger. He recommends that you ask the lender if you can review the title to the property before it gets filed, so that you can make sure it's correct.

Be Proactive. Your loan representative should keep in contact with you even if there isn't any action on your loan. But do your part to keep the lines of communication open as well. If you don't hear from your loan representative for a few days, pick up the phone and ask for an update. The old adage that the squeaky wheel gets the grease definitely applies in this situation.

Be specific about the loan you want. The more precise you are, the easier it will be for a loan officer or mortgage broker to find the best rate. For example, do you want a 15-year or 30-year mortgage? Do you need a "jumbo" mortgage (more than $333,700)? Are you willing to pay points to reduce the interest rate? The answers to these questions will depend on several factors, including when you plan to sell the house and how soon you want to retire your debt. Only you know the answers, but the sooner you know them, the better.
