You will want to ask for a good faith estimate so that you will have proof of exactly what they are promising you along with what type of rate and fees are involved with the different types of loans they have to offer. A good faith estimate will also be helpful when you go to other lenders so that they can see exactly what type of competition they have and will let you know if they can beat the rate or take off any of the fees.
