Getting Pre-Approved

Finding out what you truly qualify for is the first concrete step in your home buying journey. To help you get started, I've listed some mortgage lenders that I recommend. Click their "APPLY HERE" link to start the pre-approval process. In addition to filling out the form(s), you will be asked to provide documentation. That usually includes:

2 years tax returns
2 months pay stubs
2 years w-9's and 1099's
2 months bank statements
If you have a special situation, more documentation may be needed
Note: The pre-approval process will require the lender to pull your credit. This will reduce your score by 2-3 points.
