A crucial first step: Mortgage pre-approval

September 16, 2022

Mortgage pre-approval means a lender has reviewed your finances and, based on factors like your income, debt, and credit history, determined how much you’re qualified to borrow.

Being pre-approved (or pre-qualified) for a loan can give you clarity while planning your home buying budget, confidence in your ability to secure a loan, and helps sellers know your offer is serious.

TESTIMONIALS

"My wife and I are now living in a home we saw in person for the first time a few days ago, in fact just an hour before we signed the closing documents. That’s the kind of trust we have in Russ Fortuno. As a buyer’s agent, you could not ask for more. He listened carefully to what my wife and I had in mind and then repeatedly, told us why we wouldn’t be happy with homes we were interested in… until we asked him to take a look at the home we eventually purchased. He went above and beyond what was expected and was always available to answer our questions throughout the process in a very timely manner. I’m not sure I’ve ever experienced service like we received from Russ. I would highly recommend Russ if you are buying a home, especially if you’re not local and you need someone you can count on to look out for your best interests."
- M.H., Green Valley AZ
"Russ is an incredible professional and I cannot think of a single area of expertise he wasn’t abreast of. Every question was answered promptly, accurately and pleasantly. He knows his market, he knows the industry and he knows people. He’s able to meet people on their level without being condescending. I would, and have, recommended Russ to others who are looking for a good and trustworthy Realtor."
- R.S., Green Valley, AZ
"Russ did an outstanding job with our out-of-state move. He went over and beyond with all the online paper work and E-signing. He even took additional pictures of the home we saw online to help us make up our minds. He’s great at his job and I would recommend him, he’s an outstanding Realtor!!!”"
