Buying a home, especially for first-time homebuyers, can feel like an overwhelming and lengthy process. How do you determine how much home you can afford? How do you find out what loan program is right for you? How do you get started? As overwhelming as it all may seem, it doesn’t have to be.
Like many things, the homebuying process always runs a lot smoother if you get your ducks in a row first, which means getting prequalified with your lender. A simple way to do that, according to podcast guest Greg Geis, is our easy-to-use online mortgage application that helps you get your financial information in order and automatically determine which loan programs may work best and ultimately, get prequalified in as little as 15 minutes.
