How to Buy A House: Our Home Buying Seminar

When to talk to a Lender

Talking to a lender is a great first step in the process of how to buy a house. A lender will be able to tell you how much you can afford to spend so that you can narrow down the homes you are looking at. Talking to a lender can help give you a realistic sense of the location, size, and amenities you can afford. Additionally, being pre-qualified is an important step in the home buying process.

How to Get Qualified

You can get pre-qualified for a home buying loan by talking to a lender. A trusted lender will have you submit your tax and income information so that they can pre-qualify you for a home loan. They will collect information such as your income statements, tax write-offs, bank statements, and other financial documents.
