Heber City Real Estate, Pre-approval a must

Buying your first home? , maybe your second, well this can be a wonderful experience for you or this could be a disaster. It all depends on how prepared you are when the process starts. Your first step is getting Pre-Approved.

Financing a home can be a difficult process for you, especially finding the right loan. What you need to be concerned about is not getting the financing, but getting the right financing. You will want to find the best terms at the lowest cost. You will want to meet with a loan officer to review your financing options; you will need to meet with a lender who can explain all of the different types of loans that you will be able to afford as well as the program that will help you meet your goals. Once you determine with the lender how much you can afford, you will be able to narrow down your housing search to a specific neighborhood.

It is very important to have a pre-approval letter from your lender when you make your offer on a home. Your pre-approval letter is not a final commitment for the loan, but it is a necessary step in order to look at homes with an agent. Some require, and some recommend it. It shows that you will have the ability to complete the purchase of a home. Otherwise, agents and sellers could think you are just wasting their time. Sellers do not want to get into the final hours before closing and find out that the buyer cannot get financing. Also, if you don’t meet in advance with a loan officer, you could be rushed into making a decision about your financing without taking the time to think about what is best for you. It is a strain to try and get a lender and find a loan program once you have already found the house that you want to buy.

GREAT advice, Robert! When I send off that pre-approval letter it has not only the name and logo of the company I work for but also my signature. Therefore I do not send pre-approvals laced with contingencies or hypotheticals. I send them after having consulted with the buyer on their best mortgage program, ensured the mortgage program is eligible for the property type and location that they are looking at, determined their affordability and max price range, verified their credit is acceptable NOW (not subject to credit improvement), and also verified their closing cost money and down payment money, if they needed. As soon as a property becomes tangible I supplement the pre-approval by pre-approving the property in relation to the mortgage type, looking for any potential complications, pitfalls, or otherwise.

Best wishes in your continued success!
