Whether you’re actively preparing to buy a home or the desire to buy has just occurred to you, it’s never too soon to meet with a lender and talk about your goals.
Some buyers assume that by getting pre-approved, they’ll be put under pressure to buy right away. This isn’t the case at all. Talking with a lender and getting pre-approved will simply help guide your search and ensure that when you do find the perfect home, you’ll be ready to act. An opportunity to talk with a lender is an opportunity for you to educate yourself about your position as a buyer. And by having this conversation early, you’ll have additional time to improve your financial health if you don’t qualify right away.
