The Value of a Pre-Approval
If you're thinking about buying a home, a pre-approval is a fast and simple way to make your home buying experience easier from start to finish.
Pre-approval means you get an approval for a mortgage loan before you make an offer on a home or even find a home you want. (This is in contrast to pre-qualification — a preliminary evaluation of your financial status that does not include a commitment to giving you a loan.) We even put our commitment to the loan in writing, in a pre-approval letter. That means you'll have the benefit of knowing how much home you can afford. In fact, many real estate agents will ask you to get pre-approved before you begin house hunting so they can show you homes that suit your budget.
Get an edge over other buyers
A pre-approval gives you buying power — the ability to make offers, negotiate price and terms, and even sign a contract to buy. It gives you an advantage over other buyers when you make an offer on the home of your dreams, because a pre-approval letter proves to the seller and real estate agent that you're financially ready to buy the home. And that can help make your offer attractive. |
