Before you start looking for your new home, it’s important to get a strong sense of your budget. Pre-qualification is a simple, no-obligation step to help you determine how much you can afford, how much you’ll need for a down payment, and how much you’re likely to pay every month after closing.

Once you're pre-qualified, you'll receive a premier buyer letter to give to your real estate agent to show you're a serious potential homebuyer.
