Sometimes it’s the little things.
When you’re trying to buy a home, it’s all about understanding your financial readiness and getting approved for a mortgage. 🏠
Before you start the homebuying process, you need to get clear on your financial situation. 🏦 This means knowing and understanding your:
- income
- debts
- savings
- credit score
Having this understanding will allow you to get pre-approved for a mortgage that works for you. This will give you a budget range so you can make offers that you’ll get approved for.
With this done, you’ll be able to confidently enter the homebuying process ready to make fast decisions.
Plus, having a pre-approval in hand will show sellers that you’re serious about buying a home, so they’ll be more likely to choose your offer. 🎉
Quick disclaimer: you will need to sign the buyer agreement and formally hire your REALTOR ® BEFORE touring any homes. REALTORS ® will not be able to show you any homes without that agreement in place first.
Make sure to ask for references, talk with family and friends, and interview different agents to find the one who will work best for you.
