Before starting your search for a new home we strongly recommend you answer the most important question:
How much can you afford?
A mortgage broker will help answer this and explain the various options open to you for financing. Applying for a loan can be a highly complex and time-consuming procedure - the right mortage broker can eliminate the complexity and simplify this process so it is smooth and hassle free.
How do I get Started?
Before starting on your search for a home, we recommend you do three things:
- Contact a mortgage broker - A mortgage broker will explain your mortgage options, assist you in finding the best rate and secure a loan for you. They can help if you have experienced difficulty in securing a loan in the past and should be there for you if you have any questions or concerns throughout the loan process.
- Getting Pre-qualified - By getting pre-qualified you will know exactly how much you can afford to spend and therefore avoid the risk of dissapointment if you fall in love with a home you then discover you cannot afford. Pre-qualification is generally a simple process that can be achieved by phone or online BUT it is not a guarantee of a loan by a lending institution.
- Getting Pre-approved - By getting pre-approved from a lender, the lender has committed to lending you the money which improves your negotiating position with Home Sellers and shortens the length of time to close
