Spring is the busiest season for home buying, and if you’re getting ready to search, there’s one move that should be at the top of your list: getting pre-approved for a mortgage.
While it may be tempting to start by browsing homes or attending open houses, skipping pre-approval puts you at a disadvantage. With more buyers in the market, competition is fierce—not just for homes, but for the attention of sellers.
A mortgage pre-approval shows sellers that you’re financially prepared and serious about buying. It helps your offer stand out in a multiple-offer situation and gives you confidence in what you can actually afford.
Before diving into your search, connect with a trusted local lender. They can explain how today’s interest rates affect your buying power and guide you toward the right price range.
