Pre-Qualification "vs" Pre-Approval
Don't lose the house because you thought you were "qualified" to buy.
Pre-Qualification Pre-Approval
Information is provided by the borrower. Borrower must provide documentation.
Employment history, rental history & all asset information is provided by the borrower. All employment history, rental history & assets are verified by a third party.
Debt to income ratios are calculated based upon borrower information. Debt to income ratios are calculated based upon verified information.
Normally a credit report is not ordered. If it is ordered the pre-qualification is based upon our opinion only after reviewing the information provided by the borrower and review of the credit report. Full credit report is ordered (price ranges from $25-65). All information is verified and the credit report is modified, if necessary.
A pre-qualification is based upon a loan officer's opinion after reviewing information provided to the borrower. No information has been verified. A pre-approval has been determined by an underwriter. Of if the loan is a conventional loan, the loan has been submitted through our automated underwriting system (via computer).
Pre-qualifications can be processed over the phone in minutes. Pre-approvals can take up to 7-10 days to fully verify all the information.

We suggest you take the extra time to get PRE-APPROVED for your loan, not just pre-qualified. A pre-approval will allow the loan to close quickly upon finding a property. The hard work has already been done.
