What Is a Pre-Approval Home Loan?
A pre-approval home loan, sometimes referred to as conditional approval, is an indication from a lender that they are prepared to lend you a specific amount based on an initial assessment of your financial circumstances.
During the pre-approval process, the lender reviews your income, expenses, savings, employment status, liabilities, and credit history. Once approved, you’ll receive confirmation of your estimated borrowing capacity, allowing you to search for properties within your budget.
