Could I apply now???

Hoping to get some advice from the mortgage pros.  I just received my clear to close about 2 hours ago and am scheduled to close tomorrow at 1 p.m.  My question is this, I want to take advantage of some promo offers and apply for a Lowe' s account and another account to cover some remodeling costs.  Can I do that now or do I have to wait until I sign on the dotted line? Is there a waiting period so that I do not jeopardize my mortgage?

 

Thanks!

Re: Could I apply now???

I highly recommend you wait until you've closed and the loan is funded.  You can ask at the closing if the loan is funded at the time of closing or a couple of days later.

 

If they say it's funded at the time of closing, you should be free and clear to app as soon as you receive the keys!

 

Congratulations!!!
