The very first thing you should do when in the market for home is the get a full  loan pre-approval.  This is true regarding FHA, VA or conventional home loans.  This is very important because your don’t want to waste a lot of time searching for a property until you know for sure if you can get approved and what the maximum amount you can approved for is.  This can be accomplished in a matter of minutes and then you will have the peace of mind that if you make and offer on a home and it gets accepted you will have no problem closing.

Below is a list of what we will do to fully approved your for your loan:

  1. We will go through a loan application (most often over the phone).  It is best for me to talk to you and go through the application vs. having you fill one out as this way we get it right the first time and save a lot of time.
  2. We will do a credit check
  3. I will ask you to send me your last 1 months paystub copies, last 2 years w-2’s and bank statements documenting where you will be getting the down payment.  If you are self-employed we will need your last 2 years of federal tax returns all pages.

After those simple steps I can issue you a pre-approval letter.  In the call we will also discuss the maximum loan amount that you qualify for and what the total payment will be (mortgage + property taxes + home insurance).

If you have any questions or would like to get a fast pre-approval give us a call or email.

Warm Regards,

Rob Chomentowski
