The answer: usually true!
Most pre-approvals are valid for a limited time because lenders must verify that the information used to qualify you is still current. Income, assets, employment, credit, and debt can all change over time, which is why an updated review may be needed if your home search takes longer than expected.
Believe it or not, renewing a pre-approval is often much simpler than starting from scratch! If your pre-approval is approaching its expiration date, reach out to your lender before you find the perfect home. Staying up to date can help prevent delays when you're ready to make an offer.
