• PRIMARY BORROWER
  
  An individual who is listed first on the mortgage loan application and is considered to be the primary borrower. Some lenders allow a non-occupying co-borrower or co-signor to be on the application. In this case, the borrower occupying the property will need to be the primary borrower.
