Before you start house hunting, there’s one thing you must do: get pre-approved.
It’s a simple step that can save you time, stress, and even help you win your dream home.
🔹 What is it?
A pre-approval is a letter from a lender saying how much you can borrow based on your income, credit, and debt. It’s legit proof you’re ready to buy.
🔹 Why it matters:
Sellers take your offer more seriously
You know your true price range
It helps speed up the buying process
Pro tip: Pre-approval > pre-qualification. It’s more official and gives you a stronger edge in a hot market.
