You found the perfect home. Then comes the question: βAre you pre-approved?β π
If not, your offer may be harder to compete in a fast-moving market.
Don't let a slow paper trail cost you your dream home. Here is what you need to gather to get your pre-approval fast and frictionless:
β
ID & Credit: Driverβs license/SSN for identity and credit review
β
Assets: Bank statements for down payment, closing costs, and reserves (or gift funds)
β
Income: Recent pay stubs, W-2s, or tax returns (especially if self-employed).
Having these ready can help move your application forward more efficiently.
