Get Pre-Approved and Lock in your Rate!





Lock in a rate while you shop!




Getting pre-approved for a mortgage is something every potential home buyer should do before going shopping for a new home. A pre-approval will give you the confidence of knowing that financing is available, and it can put you in a very positive negotiation position against other home buyers who aren't pre-approved.
I will let you know for certain what you can afford based on lender and insurer criteria, and what your payments on a specific mortgage will be.

We can lock in an interest rate for you for anywhere from 60 - 120 days while you shop for your perfect home.

By locking in an interest rate, you are guaranteed to get a mortgage for at least that rate or better. If interest rates drop, your locked-in rate will drop as well. However, if the interest rates go up, your locked-in interest rate will not, ensuring you get the best rate throughout the mortgage pre-approval process.

In order to get pre-approved for a mortgage, I would require a short list of information that will allow me to determine your buying power. I will explain to you the benefits of shorter or longer mortgage terms, the latest programs available, which mortgage products I believe will most likely meet your needs the best, plus I will review all of the other costs involved with purchasing a home.

If you are looking for a new home, be sure you are pre-approved. With a mortgage pre-approval, I can do a more complete verification prior to sending you shopping for a home, and with that done, the dollar figure you are going shopping with is actually what you can spend.

Contact me today for your pre-approval…  Can you afford to wait?
