MORTGAGE PRE-APPROVAL
What is a pre-approved mortgage certificate?
This is a certificate that secures a mortgage amount at a guaranteed rate (for fixed-rate mortgages) for a specific length of time. If interest rates increase, your rate will not. And, if interest rates fall, you get the lower rate. You're under no obligation to purchase a home within the time period.
Why is it important in buying a home?
A pre-approved mortgage certificate allows you to shop confidently and provides you with the security of negotiating a house price that falls comfortably within your budget. The fact that you already have your mortgage financing arrangements in place indicates to prospective vendors that you are a serious buyer.
What do I need to get one?
- Personal information, including identification such as your driver's license
- Details of your job, including confirmation of salary in the form of a letter from your employer
- Sources of income
- Information and details on all bank accounts, loans and other debts
- Proof of financial assets
- Source and amount of down payment and deposit
- Proof of source of funds for the closing costs (these are usually 1.5% of the purchase price)
