If I’ve been turned down by a different lender, can I get a second opinion?

Yes, and you should! Different companies offer different financing offers to their customers. We know that one size does not fit all, and as a result First Choice Lending Services features very different loan programs from our competitors. Call our customer service team to learn more about our personalized financing options.

How much house can I afford?

How much house you can afford depends on your income, monthly debts, credit score, down payment, and current mortgage interest rates. Most lenders look at your debt-to-income ratio (DTI) to determine a comfortable monthly payment. A mortgage pre-approval gives you the most accurate picture of your true homebuying budget.

What’s the difference between pre-qualification and pre-approval?

Pre-qualification is an estimate based on self-reported financial information, while pre-approval involves verifying income, credit, and assets. A mortgage pre-approval shows sellers you’re a serious buyer and gives you a clearer picture of how much home you can afford.
