What’s Involved in the Mortgage Pre-Approval Process?
It’s pretty easy. Here’s what to expect:
Step 1

Submit Your Info:
Fill out a secure form with your basic financial information, including income, assets, and employment details.

Step 2

Review Credit:
They will review your credit score, credit report, and debt ratios to match you with the best loan programs.

Step 3

Get Pre-Approved:
You’ll receive a pre-approval letter that shows sellers you’re serious and financially ready.

Step 4

Generate Your Own Pre-Approval Letter:
You’ll be able to create your own preapproval letter for any amount up to your max preapproval.
This comes in handy when writing offers at different price points when you don’t want the seller to know how much you can really afford.
