Important Information about Procedures for Obtaining a Mortgage Loan

To help us prevent fraud and to assist the government in fighting the funding of terrorism and money laundering activities, we are obtaining, verifying, and recording information that identifies each person who obtains a mortgage loan with us. What this means for you: When you obtain a mortgage loan, we will ask for your name, address, date of birth, and other information that will allow us to identify you. We may also ask to see your driver's license or other identifying documents.

Information submitted for consideration for loan.

You verify that all of the information you have provided in the prequalification request is true and complete. You authorize PennWest Home Equity Services Corp ("we", "us" or "our") to check your credit (including ordering a consumer credit bureau report) and employment history, to answer questions regarding your credit history with us, and provide that information to credit bureaus and to return our decision to you via telephone, facsimile, mail or internet, at our option. You understand that the providers and we may keep this information, whether or not you pre-qualify for a loan. You acknowledge that this is NOT an application for credit. YOU UNDERSTAND THAT YOU WILL HAVE TO COMPLETE AN APPLICATION WITH US AND FULFILL ALL OF THE REQUIREMENTS OF THE APPLICATION BEFORE WE WILL CONSIDER THAT AN APPLICATION HAS BEEN MADE TO US AND BEFORE WE WILL EXTEND TO YOU A LOAN OFFER.

The interest rate quoted in connection with the loan you select is subject to change without notice unless and until an application as described above has been submitted and accepted by us and we have informed you of approval of your loan request, and, as applicable, an interest rate lock-in agreement has been made between you and us. If you enter a lock-in agreement with us and are required to pay a lock-in fee, the terms and conditions under which the lock-in fee may be refunded, if any, will be set by us in the agreement.
