Mortgage Myth Monday 🏡
❌ MYTH: “There’s no point getting pre-approved until I’m ready to make an offer.”
✅ FACT: Getting pre-approved before you start shopping can help you understand your budget, potentially secure an interest rate hold for up to 120 days, and reduce the risk of unexpected financing issues when it’s time to write an offer.
A pre-approval can help you:
Protect yourself if interest rates increase while you’re searching, know exactly what price range fits your financial goals, make a stronger offer with confidence and avoid surprises that could put your purchase at risk after finding your dream home.
The best time to prepare your financing is before you fall in love with a home.
