It usually takes about 30 days after you get all your paper work in. I'm not sure how long they are valid for though.

Re: mortgage process question

your attorney will negotiate a date in the contract for your commitment date. usually thats 30 or 45 days. thats how long it usually takes the bank. you need to find out from BOA what their penalty is for extending the lock in rate. it's usually a percentage of the loan. it can be a lot. try to lock in the rate for 60 days.
