Getting pre-approved should be the among the first steps you take in the home buying process. It’s something you should do before you even start looking at homes.
A pre-approval will give you the right idea of what you’ll be able to afford because you’ll be able to sit down with a lender and they’ll be able to advise you. This way, you won’t be wasting your time or anyone else’s time by looking at homes that are out of your price range.

A pre-approval will also strengthen your offer once you’re ready to make one.
