The absolute first step to purchasing a home is to meet with a Mortgage Lender and get preapproved for your loan. This is a simple process that will supply you with all of the information you will need to purchase your next home.
After the Preapproval is granted you will receive a preapproval letter. We will use this letter when viewing and making offers on properties. This preapproval letter shows the seller that we are qualified to purchase their home.
There are several other benefits to being preapproved for your loan…
Save Time by Looking at the Right Homes
We will be concentrating on homes you can afford and are able to purchase. Our MLS home search will be much more effective and productive. We will locate the perfect home quickly and be in position to jump on great deals.
Spend More Time Examining the Right Homes
We will be able to devote our energy to viewing homes that are properly targeted to your wants and needs. This will allow you to pay attention to the little details and not be rushed to view more homes than are necessary. Remember, the great listings don’t stay on the market for a long time.
Gain Confidence & Avoid Disillusionment
You will minimize anxiety and remove last minute loan surprises that could disqualify you. When we find your perfect home you will have peace of mind knowing that when our offer is accepted, nobody can take it away from you and the loan will definitely close.
Increase Bargaining & Negotiating Power
Sellers will take our offer seriously because they know that they are dealing with a qualified buyer and if they accept our offer their home is sold. They can then confidently place their listing under contract and take the home off the market.
Enjoy a Faster Closing Period
Since you are preapproved, the lender can speed up the entire loan approval process. The home appraisal and survey can be ordered immediately. It’s possible to shorten a 30 day closing to 2 or 3 weeks. This can come in handy if the seller needs a quick closing and they are trying to decide which offer to accept. Our offer will move to the front.
