Higher Mortgage Rates IMPACT Pre-Approval (Tips & Strategy)

Higher mortgage rates equal LOWER pre-approval amounts. If you are pre-approved and actively looking to buy a home, I strongly recommend checking your debt-to-income ratio to ensure these higher rates have not negatively impacted your ability to buy the home you want. For my clients, I provide a maximum approved monthly payment figure along with a spreadsheet that allows them to run accurate calculations to make sure they aren't offering on a property they won't be approved to buy. In this video, I share some valuable tips and information on how higher rates might affect you along with some strategies for making adjustments as needed.

The lowest rate for your mortgage varies based on a lot of factors: credit score, loan amount, appraised value, down payment, property type (single family residence, condo, multi-family), income, etc. In addition to offering rates I believe you will find to be very competitive, I also help folks to optimize the various factors involved to obtain the best rate possible.
