Keeping Mortgage Simple
PRE-QUALIFY vs. PRE-APPROVED
WHAT’S THE DIFFERENCE?
PRE-QUALIFICATION
An initial estimate of what you may be able to afford based on the financial information you provide.
PRE-APPROVAL
A more detailed review of your income, assets, credit, and other financial information to determine how much you may qualify to borrow.
REMEMBER:
Getting pre-approved doesn’t mean you have to buy a house tomorrow. It simply helps you understand where you stand and plan your next steps.
Thinking about buying now or sometime down the road? Let’s put together a game plan.
