Your lender will let you know what information is required to make the mortgage loan process go as quickly as possible. Be sure to supply accurate information. Otherwise, the loan may be delayed or even denied. A lot of information is needed at the time you apply for a home loan, so it's a good idea to begin gathering the paperwork you will need well ahead of time.

Here are some of the items you should be ready to provide.
