Funding

Defined by Onias Derilus, Mortgage Capital · NMLS# 1859012 · Florida licensed mortgage broker

Funding is the step where the lender disburses the loan money, completing the purchase after closing documents are signed.

What Funding means

On a purchase, funding usually happens at or just after signing. On a refinance of a primary residence, it waits until the three-day rescission window closes. Recording the deed follows funding.

Florida example

A Tampa buyer signed closing documents in the morning. The lender wired funding that afternoon so the title company could record the deed and disburse to the seller.
