Your Mortgage Questions, Answered — Long Island and Nationwide 

Have questions about the mortgage process? You’re not alone. Here are answers to the most common questions we hear from homebuyers, refinancers, and investors — on Long Island and across the country.

East Coast Capital is a licensed mortgage banker in over 40 states with 14 branch locations in New York, New Jersey, Florida, Nevada, Maryland, Ohio, Massachusetts and South Carolina. Our Corporate Headquarters is in Melville, New York (Long Island). Visit our Locations page to find a branch or loan officer near you. 

 East Coast Capital is a mortgage banker, which means we handle your loan from start to finish. This is different from a mortgage broker, who arranges loans through third-party lenders. As a direct lender, we have more control over rates, terms, and the lending process — which often means better pricing and faster closings for our clients, whether they’re on Long Island or in any other state we serve. 

 Our streamlined, fully digital pre-approval process typically takes 24 hours or less — available to borrowers in all states East Coast Capital serves. You can start your application online from anywhere, and our team will contact you to verify your information and provide your pre-approval letter. 

Credit score requirements vary by loan program. FHA loans accept lower credit scores, while conventional loans typically require 620 or higher. VA loans have no minimum credit score set by the VA, though individual lenders may have their own guidelines. Our MLOs in every state can review your specific situation and recommend the best program for you.

Absolutely. Self-employed borrowers may qualify for a conventional loan.  Non-QM loan programs are specifically designed for self-employed borrowers and those with non-traditional income sources — both are available across all states East Coast Capital serves. We look at your overall financial capacity and business stability, not just standard W-2 and1040 documentation. 

 Yes — and this is one of our key strengths. If you’re relocating from Long Island to Florida, New Jersey, Nevada, Maryland, Ohio, Massachusetts, South Carolina, or another state where we’re licensed, your East Coast Capital loan officer can often continue working with you or seamlessly connect you with another dedicated East Coast Capital  loan officer in your destination state. We make the transition as smooth as possible. 

Mortgage rates change daily based on market conditions and your individual profile — including your credit score, loan type, down payment, property details, and the state you’re purchasing in, just to name a few factors. For current rates tailored to your specific situation, contact one of our loan officers directly. 

 

 Whether refinancing makes sense depends on current interest rates, your loan’s remaining term, your credit score, and your financial goals. Our refinance specialists serve borrowers across Long Island and all states we’re licensed in — and can run a detailed analysis to show you exactly what you could save, with no obligation.

Generally, you’ll need recent pay stubs (last 30 days), tax returns for the past two years, bank statements (last 2–3 months), and a valid government-issued ID. If you’re self-employed, additional business documentation may be required. Our loan officers will provide a complete, personalized checklist — and we accept digital submissions to make the process convenient no matter where you’re located. 

East Coast Capital is currently licensed in over 40 states. Visit our Locations page or contact us directly to confirm current licensing in your state. We are continually expanding our footprint to serve more communities across the country.
