About the Pre-Approval Letter
Mortgage pre-approval is a written verification from a lender that states you qualify for a specific mortgage amount. Pre-approval is based on a thorough review of your credit history, credit scores, income, and assets. The letter contains crucial information about your borrowing potential, interest rates, and monthly payments.
While pre-approval is not a final commitment from a lender, it significantly increases your chances of securing a loan and progressing in the homebuying process.
Benefits
With a pre-approval letter in hand, you have a greater understanding of your loan options. The letter provides the approved borrowing amount, along with an estimated interest rate. This information gives you an idea of your options and enables you to make smart decisions throughout the rest of the home buying process.
Along with understanding your options, pre-approval demonstrates to sellers your financial capabilities and your commitment to purchasing their home. The letter gives you a competitive edge in the real estate market, improving your chances of receiving an accepted offer.
