How
Much Home Can I Afford?
Pre-qualification
and Pre-approval
Getting
pre-qualified helps you determine how much home you can afford, based
on a specific financial information you share with your lender. The
lender does not verify this information, and consequently there is no
guarantee you will qualify for the loan amount. Getting pre-approved
requires that the lender verify your financial information, and does
serve as a commitment to lend a specified amount based on that verified
information. This gives you significant buying power with a seller who
recognizes you will be approved for a loan.
What's pre-qualification?
Pre-qualification
is an informal discussion between borrower and lender. The lender estimates
the amount that you can borrow based solely on what you tell them about
your income and assets. The lender does no verification and is not bound
to make the loan when you're ready to buy. On the other hand, loan pre-approval
is based on documented and verified information regarding your employment,
your income, your liabilities, your assets and the cash you have available
to close on a home purchase.
How
is pre-approval better?
To
a seller, a lender's pre-approval letter is considerably stronger than
a pre-qualification letter. If a seller knows your financing is secure,
your offer is stronger. Pre-approval also gives you peace of mind as
you shop for a home, knowing that you will qualify for the proper mortgage
amount.
