Prequalified and pre-approved sound like the same thing. They're not, and the difference matters a lot.
Prequalification is a quick estimate based on what you tell a loan officer. No documents, no verification. It gives you a rough idea of where you stand.
Pre-approval goes deeper. A loan officer reviews your income, credit, and assets. You get a letter showing sellers you're a serious buyer.
When you find a home you love, that letter can set you apart. Sellers want confidence that the deal will close.
