Part 1: A Buyer's Agent's Worst Nightmare




What is the difference between Pre-Approved and Pre-Qualified?

A Pre-Approval: You complete your application and your credit, income and assets are verified and reviewed by a mortgage lender.


A Pre-Qualification- You complete an application. Then you are pre-qualified based on your credit score and the information you entered.


Why is it important to be pre-approved- Because a pre-qualification is just a feel good piece of paper that doesn’t guarantee your ability to purchase a home.

Who should this matter to? EVERYONE- The buyers, the Buyer's agent and the Seller and Sellers agent. Because it affects EVERYONE if the deal doesn’t come to fruition.


Take the time to get fully pre-approved. It is one decision you won't regret doing. KNOWING IS BETTER than HOPPING.



**Curious about the difference between a Pre-approval and a Pre-Qualification? Here's a breakdown:

Pre-approval: Complete your application and have your credit, income, and assets verified by a mortgage lender.

Pre-Qualification: Submit an application and receive a preliminary assessment based on your credit score and provided information.


Why does pre-approval matter? Because pre-qualification alone doesn't guarantee your ability to purchase a home—it's merely a feel-good piece of paper.


Who does it impact? Everyone involved—buyers, buyer's agents, sellers, and seller's agents. A failed deal affects everyone.


Take the time to get fully pre-approved. It's a decision you won't regret. Knowing is better than hoping.
