There are a wide variety of loan products available in today's market. Find a lender who listens to your goals, explains your loan options in plain English and offers you a competitive price.
Pre-approval is a quick way to find out how much you can afford and shows home-sellers that you're a serious buyer. To get you pre-approved, a lender will check your credit and may verify employment, income and assets. If you meet that lender's guidelines, you'll get a letter that says how much you're pre-approved to borrow. A pre-approval letter is stronger than a pre-qualification.
Getting pre-approved is free and there's no obligation to work with that lender. Once you've got an accepted offer on a house your lender will go through a more detailed approval process and get the home appraised before she funds the loan.
