Purchase Overview
The San Diego Home Loan Process is comprised of many steps. Most people today are Pre-qualified because it helps them to negotiate better terms on their home purchase.
Being pre-qualified starts with an on-line application and a personal meeting with one of our Mortgage Broker Professionals to discuss your personal financial situation. Being Pre-qualified is a smart place to start because it lets prospective sellers know you have taken appropriate steps to possibly buy their home for sale in San Diego.
You can also take this process one step further by being "Pre-Approved" prior to shopping for San Diego real estate. This puts you in an even better position, especially in today's market. When you are Pre-approved, the seller considers you a "cash buyer". In many situations, being a "cash buyer" will enable you to negotiate a better price since the seller is able to see that you are qualified for their home and would be able to close on it sooner. We can further discuss the benefits of Pre-Approval with you. E-mail us now with your questions!
