Loan Closing Guarantee We guarantee to meet your closing date or we will credit you up to $1,000 at closing. With the Closing Guarantee from Merrill Lynch Home LoansTM, you can receive a monetary credit if the closing date for the purchase of your new home is not met. Receive $500 at closing for loans up to $1 million or $1,000 for loans greater than $1 million if we miss the agreed upon closing date. For refinances, we will apply the credit if your loan does not close within 60 days. Please note, all guarantees are subject to your ability (as the applicant) to satisfy closing conditions either by the agreed upon closing date or within the applicable 60-day period.

Assets may be held in a combination of MLPF&S brokerage accounts, as well as accounts held at Bank of America. N.A. The client is not required to have any particular type of account to receive the relationship pricing discount. All assets are subject to verification for eligibility prior to closing.

If the client wants to meet the balance threshold entirely through deposits, they are entitled to do so. |
