No matter where you are in life – when it comes buying a home, there’s absolutely nothing smarter than getting pre-qualified for your mortgage loan.
It should be everyone’s first step. It doesn’t matter if you’re a first-time home buyer or an experienced homeowner with a winter home overlooking the bay in Kailua, Hawaii.
When it comes to real estate, it’s just smart to start with the numbers.
Plot a clear path on how you’re going to finance the purchase of a new home while selling your current home. Work with your lender on:
When you think of moving, what springs to mind? Hiring movers and packing up all your stuff? Keep in mind you’re also moving your money. You’re taking your equity out of one property and putting it into another.
Plan thoroughly for this financial move and, while you’re packing and unpacking all those boxes, you can rest easy knowing your financial house is in order.
