Buyer Pre-Qualification

Step 1: Gather Documents and Meet with Your Lender or Mortgage Broker

Step 2: Assess Affordability and Loan Options

Upon completing your loan application, your lender or mortgage broker should be able to indicate the maximum amount of loan and purchase price which you can reasonably expect to obtain. Of course, the maximum loan amount serves only as a ceiling, and you should carefully consider other factors such as projected future employment and income, other monetary obligations, desired savings and reserves for future changes in income or expenses.

Step 3: Obtain a Preapproval Letter from your Lender or Mortgage Broker

The Preapproval Letter is basically a loan officer’s written communication that the borrower fits within a particular loan program’s guidelines . Diligent sellers will request a copy of your Preapproval Letter at the time the offer is presented.
