Frequently Asked Questions
Is a preapproval the same as a prequalification?
No. A prequalification is an informal estimate based on information you state. A preapproval involves reviewing documentation and pulling credit, so it carries considerably more weight with a seller. The words are often used loosely, so ask which one you are actually being given.
Does getting preapproved hurt my credit?
A preapproval involves a credit inquiry, which can have a small, temporary effect. Credit scoring models generally treat multiple mortgage inquiries within a short shopping window as a single event, so comparing lenders does not multiply the impact.
How long does a preapproval last?
Preapprovals are typically valid for a limited period because credit and income documentation go stale. If your search runs longer, the file is updated rather than started over. Tell us your timeline and we will plan around it.
Does a preapproval guarantee my loan?
No. A preapproval reflects a review of the information available at that time. Final approval depends on the property, the appraisal, verification at closing and no material change in your circumstances. All loans remain subject to credit approval.
