Pre-Qualification is a process that provides a "ballpark" estimate of your borrowing power. • The process estimates how much money a prospective home buyer might be eligible to borrow before they apply for a loan. • When you pre-qualify, you provide information about your credit, assets and debts. • Based on the information you provide and the loan type you want, you’ll find out how large of a loan amount you might qualify for but this is only an estimate and not a commitment to lend. • Pre-Qualification
Pre-Approval can give you the edge when shopping for a home. • The pre-approved loan amount is based on a verification of your income, credit and assets (for some loan programs, verification of income or assets may not be necessary for qualified borrowers). • Pre-Approval is conditioned on a satisfactory appraisal of the property and title review (once you find the home you’d like to purchase), and no change in financial condition before final loan approval. • With Pre-Approval you can house-shop with assurance, because you'll know in advance how large a loan you could qualify for. • Pre-Approval could give you the home buying edge since real estate agents and home sellers will know you’re a serious homebuyer with the financial means to purchase a home. • Pre-Approval
Once you’ve found your new home and made an offer to purchase the property, you’ll need to fill out a loan application. • The application provides information about a prospective borrower's employment, income, assets, debts, and information about the purpose of the home loan and about the property itself. An application is sometimes called a “1003” - the form number of this Fannie Mae Universal Residential Loan Application used by most lenders. • Items usually required for submission with the loan application include: • W2’s and federal income tax returns for the last two years. • Paycheck stubs covering the past thirty (30) days showing current and year-to-date income (if self-employed, different documents are required). • Three most recent monthly statements for any checking, savings or other financial accounts to show the source for down payment and closing costs funds. • Documents verifying other income sources or assets (ex. Social security, alimony, child support, pension, stocks, IRA’s, 401K, etc.) • Loan Application
Do you need a lower monthly payment? A shorter loan term? The predictability of a fixed interest rate or the options available with an adjustable rate loan? • Considerations to help match a home loan to your specific situation • How long do I plan to stay in this home? • Is my goal to build equity faster or have lower monthly payments? • How comfortable am I if my payment changes? • How much cash on hand do I have? • Do I expect my income to increase? • What is my level of financial discipline? • Finding the Right Home Loan
