mortgage rate: Pre-qualified or Pre-approved?
- 11/26/09 06:58 AM
What does being pre-qualified or pre-approved for a mortgage mean to a buyer? There are differences between being pre-qualified or pre-approved for a mortgage and it can affect your ability as a home buyer, as well as the transaction itself. Pre-qualifying for a mortgage typically doesn't include an analysis of your credit history or an in-depth look at your ability to buy a home. You can actually pre-qualify yourself for a mortgage by taking a general look at your income and expenses and plug them in to a total debt-to-income ratio formula.Ā Here is a link to a calculator to help (6 comments)
