Financing Your Home

Pre-Qualifing for Your Home

Many people wait until they find a home before they shop for a lender, but there are good reasons to start early by getting pre-approved for a loan.

Target your search to homes you know you can afford.
Prove you're serious when making an offer.
Make smarter decisions when it comes time to shop for a loan.

Pre-Approval May Be a Better Option

When you're pre-approved, a lender or broker writes a letter on your behalf, stating that they've reviewed your finances and are willing to loan you a specific amount of money to buy a house. For most buyers, it's a good idea to get pre-approved for a loan early in the home-shopping process because:

It will show you which homes you can actually afford, and prevent you from wasting time on ones you can't.
It will help you make an offer more quickly when you do find a home.
Studies have shown that waiting to shop for a mortgage until after you've shopped for a home may lower your chances of
making the best mortgage selection.
Other benefits include faster closing periods, greater negotiating positions and advantages over non-approved competing buyers.
