🏡 Prequalification vs. Preapproval — What’s the Difference? 🤔💰
If you’re thinking about buying a home, you’ve probably heard both terms tossed around. While they sound similar, they are NOT the same thing! 👇
✅ Prequalification
This is usually the first step. It’s a quick review of your finances based on information you provide verbally or online.
✔️ Fast & easy
✔️ Gives you a general idea of your budget
✔️ Great starting point for house hunting
BUT… it’s not fully verified by a lender.
✅ Preapproval
This is the stronger, more official step. A lender reviews your income, credit, assets, and documentation to determine how much you may qualify for.
✔️ Credit is reviewed
✔️ Documents are verified
✔️ Shows sellers you’re a serious buyer
✔️ Gives you a stronger offer in competitive markets
💡 Think of it this way:
Prequalification = estimate
Preapproval = verified buying power
