The Importance of Pre-Approval-The Mortgage Process

Subject: The Importance of Pre-approval

Pre-approval can be a very valuable step towards purchasing a home. Many home buyers get pre-qualified for a home loan early on, and then become pre-approved before beginning a serious home search. By completing your mortgage application prior to choosing a home, you can get a pre-approval letter stating how much home you can afford.

  • Your pre-approval letter lets you know exactly how much you can spend, and it shows home sellers and real estate agents that you’re serious about buying a home.
  • This may give you leverage in the negotiation process.
  • Many sellers actually prefer to work with pre-approved buyers, especially in hot real estate markets.

To find a mortgage professional and get started with your pre-approval for a loan, please call or email me. My goal is to provide you with practical information as you consider your next move, and I look forward to working with you.

Mint Hill North Carolina

Mint Hill North Carolina is where I call home. I often refer to Mint Hill as where Mayberry meets the 21st Century.

  • Small town feel where I can take my grandkids for some home made ice cream at Carolina Creamery.
  • How about our fall festival, Mint Hill Madness!!! Unfortunately, we had some rainy weather this year and had to cancel the Friday night festivities.

However, Saturday morning the parade went off with some lingering showers but everyone young and old enjoyed the parade with various floats, beauty queens and of course the local High School Bands. It's always a crowd favorite and it kicks off Madness.

Saturday night was in full swing with games, rides and Great food. Everyone hung around for the fireworks. The Mint Hill Chamber does a great job with this project and president Tony Long should be commended for his organizational skills to make this one of Mecklenburg County's big events.

Didn't make it this year, mark your calendar for next year or send me an email so I can send you a reminder.

Mint Hill, my home town.

Charlotte NC Market UpDate

Now that the bail out program has been approved, what is going to happen next. Well, I don't think anyone is quite sure yet.

FOX News' Chad Pergram offer's his owner’s manual to the House floor vote Friday on the $700 billion financial bailout bill, an adventure he calls, "Episode IV: A New Hope."

It is a period of civil war.

Rebel Blue Dogs, striking from a fiscal base, have…

Well, it's not quite "Star Wars." But struggle over the financial crisis legislation is just as dramatic. And as episodic in nature.

But here’s what you need to know about how things will unfold in the House on Friday as we try this yet again.

How Much Home Can you Afford?

Subject: How Much Home You Can Afford


First-time buyers are often unsure about the financial aspects of buying a home, and you may have many questions swirling in your head. How much can I afford? Do I need a large down payment?

Your home price range will be determined by your income, credit history, the cash you have for a down payment and closing costs, and your debt. How much you earn compared to how much you owe will likely determine how much the bank allows you to borrow.

The financial rule of thumb is: your total monthly debt service, which will include your monthly mortgage, shouldn’t be more than about 36 percent of your gross monthly income. Most experts say that your monthly housing expense, including taxes and insurance, should not exceed about 28 percent of your gross monthly income.

Naturally, every situation is different, and each lender has different rules about working with buyers. A number of choices within your control can affect your monthly payment as well. For example, you might choose an adjustable rate loan, which has a lower initial payment than a fixed rate program. Similarly, a larger down payment may lower your monthly payment.

If you’d like more information about how much home you can afford, please call or email. I can help you get the mortgage information you need.

Stop paying unnecessary interest for months or even years on end. Instead, let the Money Merge Account software calculate the best way to pay off your financial obligations in a fraction of the time!
