Here are five reasons why getting a pre-approval letter is a good idea.
Most home buyers know they should get a mortgage pre-approval letter from a lender before they begin seriously shopping for a home. But the reasons for this advice aren't always clear, and buyers sometimes are dismayed by the amount of paperwork involved.
Here is some of the reasoning behind the advice:
1. A pre-approval letter is more reliable than a pre-qualification letter. Getting a pre-qualification letter is provided when you call a mortgage broker or lender, provide some basic financial information, then wait a few minutes for the letter to come through your fax machine. A pre-approval letter, on the other hand, involves verification of the information. Rather than taking your word on faith, the lender will ask for documentation to confirm your employment, the source of your down payment and other aspects of your financial circumstances. Granted, a pre-approval is more time-consuming (and possibly more stressful) than a pre-qualification The additional due diligence is exactly why the pre-approval carries more weight.
2. You'll know how much money you can qualify to borrow. Most home buyers have a rough idea of how much they would feel comfortable paying every month on their mortgage. However, other factors such as -- down payment percentage, mortgage insurance, property taxes, adjustable interest rates and so on -- are part of the calculation for the amount you can borrow. You might not be qualified to borrow as much as you think you should be able to borrow, depending on your income, your debts and your credit history.
3. You'll have more leverage in negotiations with the seller. Sellers often prefer to negotiate with pre-approved buyers because the sellers know such buyers are financially qualified to obtain the financing they need to close the transaction. A pre-approval letter is an especially favorable point in a close multiple offer situation. And, you might feel more confident about making an offer with a pre-approval letter in hand and the knowledge that you'll be able to obtain a mortgage.
4. Your real estate agent will work harder on your behalf. A pre-approval letter signals to your real estate agent that you're a well-qualified buyer who is serious about purchasing a home. The increased likelihood of a closed sale -- and a commission -- will naturally motivate your agent to devote more time and energy to you. In fact, some agents won't even show property to buyers who don't have a pre-approval letter.
5. A few caveats: Pre-approval letters aren't binding on the lender, are subject to an appraisal of the home you want to purchase and are time-sensitive. If your financial situation changes (e.g., you lose your job, lease a car or run up credit-card bills), interest rates rise or a specified expiration date passes, the lender will review your situation and recalculate your maximum mortgage amount accordingly.

Empowering our clients with knowledge and service.
About The Harley Team:
We are Air Force Veterans with overwhelming enthusiasm, passion, and energy for real estate. Our military training provided us excellent project management experience, and skilled us in accomplishing more with fewer resources. As professionals at relocation ourselves, we understand the importance of creating stress-free and easy moves for our clients.
We are pretty much real estate obsessed!!! So if your concern is finding an agent who can give you the time and attention you need, we have the time for you. Married since 2007, we have worked together in buying and selling property, real estate investing, renovating, and property management for years.
The need to think outside of the box is an essential technique in getting a home sold in this market. My (Stephanie’s) passions include internet marketing, research, and generating new creative techniques for getting the most exposure for our client’s homes. I love creating videos to showcase properties and communities to entice buyers to get them in your home. Customized videos have also made the home buying process easier for our friends who relied on the technology in order to purchase a home sight-unseen. This can be common for families relocating for a military move, or for out-of-state investors purchasing rental properties. Customer satisfaction is most important to us, and so is staying connected to our clients throughout the transaction and beyond.
Jeremy is a friendly and patient consultant and advocate. He implements his innovative problem solving skills to try a different route when conventionalism fails. Each real estate transaction is unique and requires a team to adapt and resolve new challenges and predicaments. Jeremy is unwavering on his clients’ behalf. And this earns him the respect and trust of our customers for life.
How we got in the business?
I (Stephanie) am a Texan and grew up in San Antonio. Jeremy is from a small town in Pennsylvania. We met in the service when we were stationed overseas in Germany. Our final duty station was Las Vegas. When we got out of the service we joined an excellent team of real estate agents and learned how to be successful in one of the most sullen housing markets of all time. At the time, over 80% of the market was a distressed sale. We were highly successful at negotiating with banks in helping homeowners out from under their homes by eradicating their toxic assets through the short sale process. Short sales can be an emotional strain for those involved, and we learned how to assist families through the process and helped them move on to a better financial position.
Since so much of the Las Vegas market was bank owned inventory (foreclosure properties), getting through to the banks on our clients behalf required diligence and determination. We kept fighting for our clients, like pit bulls until we got a yes, regardless of how many “no’s” came before it.
When we moved back to San Antonio and brought our business model with us and joined an office where we would receive motivation from our colleagues, and where our skills would continue to evolve and progress. We work with sellers to prepare their home for sale, and have developed unique marketing strategies with a high emphasis on virtual presence. Our goal is to help get the homeowner’s home in front of as many potential buyers as possible, so that it sells at the best terms for our clients. We are always working to match up buyers with the perfect home to meet their needs, and provide the necessary assistance during the relocation process.
Personal real estate investing experience allows us to help our investor clients, because we are able to advise on condition of properties, locations, rental markets, and return of investment. We are steadfast and assertive on our client’s behalf. We work hard to get them the numbers they need to make the deal work.
Please let us use our sharp skills and enthusiastic marketing approach to sell your home for more money and in less time than you even considered. We are driven for your success. We know what hard work is and we are well prepared to help you meet your real estate goals.

Jeremy and Stephanie were great real estate agents for us as first time home buyers. Their teamwork really made it a fun and exciting experience! They were willing to bear with us as we visited dozens of houses trying to figure out exactly what we wanted. Both were extremely professional, knowledgeable about the area, and helpful throughout the home buying process, from our first showing to the closing.
We ended up with the perfect house because of their determination. When we had finally found the home for us they negotiated a great price. We are glad we found Jeremy and Stephanie and feel that we couldn't have made such a big decision without their help.
