Home Affordability And Things You Should Know
Is It Hard To Get Pre-Qualified For A Mortgage?
No! We can get you pre-qualified for a new mortgage within 24-48 hours, and sometimes same day.
Does It Cost Anything To Get Pre-Qualified?
There is no cost to you to get pre-qualified.
Can I Have A Co-Signer?
Yes, you can have a co-signer if you need one to qualify. It’s easy to do, and the co-signer usually does not need to be listed on the title (so they would be a non-occupying co-borrower).
Will You Help Me Figure Out How Much I Can Afford?
Absolutely. Via email or phone, we’ll discuss how much you can afford and figure out a comfortable amount so you can easily shop for a new home with ease.
Most Of My Income Is From Commissions. How Should I Figure That Out?
When reviewing your file, underwriting will use a two-year history plus your current year. If you want to be a bit more conservative, use the lowest amount of your most recent two years or a three-year average.
