Serving clients across Utah, Idaho, Wyoming, and Texas, Summit Lending is your trusted partner in achieving financial success. Below, we detail the various loan options we offer to help you make an informed decision.

Purchase Loans for Home Buying

Buying a home is a monumental step, and at Summit Lending, we strive to make the process seamless and stress-free. Our purchase loans cater to a variety of buyers, including first-time homebuyers, those seeking vacation homes, and investors looking for rental properties. We collaborate with multiple lenders to secure competitive interest rates and flexible terms that align with your budget and long-term goals. For first-time buyers, our personalized guidance covers everything from pre-approval to closing, ensuring you understand each phase of the journey.

We also specialize in government-backed programs such as FHA, VA, and USDA loans, which often require lower down payments and have more lenient credit requirements. For instance, FHA loans allow down payments as low as 3.5%, making homeownership accessible to many in Tremonton and surrounding areas. According to the U.S. Census Bureau, homeownership rates in Utah are among the highest in the nation, hovering around 70%, which reflects the state’s supportive environment for buyers.

Refinance Loans to Optimize Your Finances

Refinancing your mortgage can unlock significant savings and financial flexibility. Whether you aim to lower monthly payments, reduce interest rates, shorten your loan term, or access home equity for renovations or debt consolidation, Summit Lending offers a range of refinance loan options. Our experienced loan officers analyze your current mortgage and market conditions to provide transparent advice on whether refinancing is the right move for you.

With interest rates fluctuating—recent data from Freddie Mac showing average 30-year fixed rates around 6.5% as of late 2023—refinancing can be a strategic decision to lock in a lower rate or switch from an adjustable-rate mortgage (ARM) to a fixed-rate option. Homeowners in Utah, where median home values have risen to approximately $500,000 according to Zillow, can particularly benefit from cash-out refinancing to fund improvements or other investments. Learn more about how refinancing can work for you on our Refinance Loans page.

Construction Loans to Build Your Vision

Dreaming of a custom home or planning a major renovation? Summit Lending’s construction loans provide the funding you need to bring your project to life. These loans are disbursed in stages as construction progresses, ensuring you have the capital necessary at each milestone. We work closely with builders and contractors to streamline the process, offering competitive rates and flexible terms tailored to your project’s scope.

Our construction-to-permanent loans are a popular choice, allowing you to transition from construction financing to a long-term mortgage without the hassle of reapplying. In Utah, where new construction is booming—over 30,000 new housing units were permitted in 2022 per the Utah Department of Workforce Services—Tremonton offers a prime location for building due to its affordable land prices and growing community. Discover more about financing your build on our Construction Loans page.

Reverse Loans for Senior Homeowners

For homeowners aged 62 and older, a reverse mortgage, or Home Equity Conversion Mortgage (HECM), can be a valuable tool to access home equity without monthly mortgage payments. Summit Lending offers reverse loans to help seniors supplement retirement income, cover healthcare costs, or enhance their quality of life. Our team provides thorough education on the benefits and considerations of reverse mortgages, ensuring you and your family make an informed decision.

With Utah’s aging population growing—over 11% of residents are 65 or older according to the Kem C. Gardner Policy Institute—reverse mortgages are increasingly relevant. These loans allow seniors to stay in their homes while accessing needed funds, though it’s crucial to understand repayment terms and potential impacts on inheritance. For detailed information, visit our Reverse Loans page.

Commercial Loans for Business Growth

Investing in commercial real estate or expanding your business requires specialized financing, and Summit Lending delivers with our commercial loan programs. Whether you’re acquiring an office building, retail space, or multi-family property, we provide tailored solutions with competitive rates and flexible terms. Our brokers simplify the often-complex commercial financing process, guiding you from application to closing.

In Tremonton and broader Utah, commercial real estate is thriving, with industrial and retail sectors seeing significant growth due to the state’s robust economy—Utah’s GDP growth rate was 3.6% in 2022 per the Bureau of Economic Analysis. This makes it an opportune time for business owners and investors to secure financing. Explore your options on our Commercial Loans page.

Government-Backed Loan Programs for Accessibility

Summit Lending is proud to offer government-backed loan programs that lower the barriers to homeownership. These include:

• FHA Loans: With down payments as low as 3.5%, these are ideal for first-time buyers with limited savings or credit challenges.
• VA Loans: Offering 100% financing and no PMI for eligible veterans and service members, these loans are highly cost-effective.

Our team will assess your eligibility for these programs, ensuring you maximize available benefits. These options are particularly valuable in Utah, where rural areas benefit from USDA eligibility, supporting community growth.

Navigating Mortgage Rates and Terms

Understanding mortgage rates and terms is crucial to selecting the right loan. Rates fluctuate based on market trends, credit scores, and loan types. As of late 2023, the Mortgage Bankers Association notes that rates for 30-year fixed mortgages are influenced by economic factors like inflation and Federal Reserve policies. Summit Lending works with multiple lenders to secure competitive rates for our clients. Use our Loan Calculator to estimate payments and understand long-term costs.

Loan terms typically range from 15 to 30 years for fixed-rate mortgages, while ARMs offer lower initial rates with potential adjustments. Our loan officers explain each option’s pros and cons, helping you align your choice with your financial strategy.

Start with Pre-Approval for Confidence

Getting pre-approved for a mortgage is a vital first step before shopping for a home or starting a project. Pre-approval clarifies your borrowing capacity and demonstrates to sellers and builders that you’re a serious buyer. Summit Lending streamlines this process, assisting with documentation and delivering quick decisions. Learn more on our Pre-Approval page.
