Obtain the Best Rates and Lowest Closing Costs
Free Pre-Approval
When you are ready to purchase a home, it makes sense to negotiate from the strongest position possible. In a strong real estate market, sellers can be more selective in the final buyer they choose to negotiate with. In a weak market if you appear as a strong buyer with approved financing the seller is more likely to accommodate your specific needs.
The vast majority of Purchaser's today go about the process entirely wrong, putting themselves at an overwhelming disadvantage!
Let's look at this from the Sellers perspective for a moment. If you were the Seller and had multiple offers on your property, all things being equal, would you accept the offer with Certificate of Financing Approval or the one that was still conditioned on Financing? The answer is obvious. Now if you're the seller with only one offer, are you likely to reduce the price of your home to a buyer that maybe doesn't qualify. Why then, do so many buyers wait to start the financing until after they have found the home?
What I have found is most buyers wait because they know their credit history and are not worried about qualifying. What buyers don't realize, pre-approval is for the benefit of the Seller.
Lastly, from a cost savings perspective...
As a prospective purchaser, it makes all the more sense to start the financing early on so you can get a firm handle on your interest rate, estimate of points and closing costs. If you do this before finding a home, you will be better prepared to meet all the deadlines, and most importantly, make a successful purchase offer.
