P O W E L L - R E A L E S T A T E . C O M Doing What's Right ! Importance of Loan Pre-APPROVAL   What's Wrong With Finding a Mortgage After You Find Your Real Estate?   You may not choose the property that's just right for you Imagine, after a long search, that you fall in love with a property. But, as you're putting your offer together, you realize you may not be able to get approved for adequate mortgage financing! Unfortunately, this happens to many people when attempting to buy property. In contrast, there will be other buyers who settle for a property that's less than optimal simply because they don't know they qualify for a better real estate purchase. It's possible for you to know EXACTLY how much you can afford before you buy.   Waiting and worrying If you apply for a loan after your contract is accepted, you'll have to wait through the traditional mortgage application process while worrying if you'll be approved. But, with a pre-approved mortgage, you can speed your way to a smooth settlement and ownership in a much shorter time.   Rates could go up Even if you know how much you can afford when you start looking, an increase in interest rates while you are shopping could increase the cost of your loan and take you right out of the real estate buying picture.   Pre-APPROVED Home Buyers Advantage   Pre-APPROVAL makes your offer more attractive When your offer is backed by a loan pre-APPROVAL, the sellers know you're already qualified to buy their property, and more likely to accept your offer over those from buyers who still must go through the application process and whose offers are contingent on obtaining mortgage financing.   Know just how much you can afford Soon after applying with your mortgage company, you'll know just how much you can afford to spend on your real estate and have your mortgage pre-approval letter in hand. Then go and look for your property with complete peace of mind, knowing the real estate you choose is right for you.   Protection against interest rate changes With a loan pre-APPROVAL, you can even lock-in your interest rate. That way you do not have to worry about higher rates taking the real estate you want out of your price range.   Don't Wait. Make the Smart Move Now ! Contact your mortgage company to get your loan pre-APPROVED. Let a loan officer show you mortgage financing options and help you find a loan that best meets your long- and short-term financial requirements. If a conversation about your specific real estate needs is appropriate, I'll be delighted to talk with you.   Remember, my goal is to help you reach yours.
