Are you ready to embark on the exciting journey of buying your dream home? Well, buckle up because pre-approval is your golden ticket to navigating the home buying maze with confidence!
But what exactly is pre-approval, and why is it so crucial?
Think of pre-approval as your financial superhero, swooping in to give you a clear indication of how much you can borrow. It’s like having a crystal ball that reveals your home buying potential, empowering you to shop for properties within your budget without any guesswork.
Here’s the lowdown on how pre-approval works and why it’s your secret weapon in the home buying game.
A home loan pre-approval, also known as conditional approval, is like a golden ticket granting you access to your dream home. It’s when a lender agrees to offer you a loan up to a specified limit, pending certain conditions.
There are two stages to this process: conditional approval, which gets you ready to dive into the property market, and unconditional approval, the final step.
You can kick-start the journey with a quick online application, where you’ll share details about your employment, income, and debts. This paints a picture of your financial landscape and gives you an estimate of your borrowing power, usually within minutes.
However, keep in mind that this initial estimate isn’t set in stone and may require additional documentation, especially for self-employed individuals.
Once you’re ready to take the next step, a Home Finance Manager will guide you through the approval in principle process. This involves a deeper assessment of your financial situation, though it’s not a guarantee of final approval. Remember, while conditional approval is a step forward, it does leave a mark on your credit history, regardless of the outcome.
Timing is everything when it comes to pre-approval. Start by researching the property market to gauge the price range of your dream home and determine your affordability. You can easily get an estimate of your borrowing capacity using our online mortgage calculator or affordability calculator. Consider different loan terms and types to find what suits you best.
Most pre-approvals, including ours, are valid for three months and can be renewed if needed. However, it’s wise not to apply too early unless you’re serious about buying, as multiple applications can impact your credit rating. Aim to apply when your finances are in good shape, you’ve saved a deposit, and you’re ready to take the plunge into homeownership.

It was an absolute pleasure working with Lisa on our loan financing. Lisa is extremely professional, dedicated and knowledgeable. We were very impressed with how responsive Lisa always was (and still is) to all our questions and we valued the fact that we could communicate with her outside of the normal working hours. We would recommend Lisa highly to anyone in need of mortgage financing.
Lisa was awesome in the way she carried out her services. She was fully engaged from the very first meeting in understanding our needs to then take us through options in the market and eventually help us choose the right product. The whole process was well defined and managed by Lisa and her team all the way till we settled. If you are on the lookout for a professional who knows the mortgage industry well, spends time to understand your needs and maintains a proactive communication at every step of the process, then Lisa should be your choice for a broker. I highly recommend the services of Lisa Bridgett and thank her for the efforts.
