A loan pre qualification aids a home buyer in the purchase of a home. Since, it gives the buyer a clear picture of how much the home is the buyer will have the option on negotiating for a better and reasonable price with the seller. As a loan pre-qualification process, the home buyer receives a special letter from the lending institution or loan officer as a pre-approval for the specific amount when purchasing a home and to document the pre-qualification.

There are various mortgage calculators online that a home buyer can take advantage in order to determine how much the home buyer can afford to take out in a mortgage loan, as well as how much monthly payments will be for specific mortgage loan amounts. These mortgage calculators provide the home buyer an estimated figure before visiting a lender. As a review of eligibility for a mortgage loan pre-qualification, it verifies the amount of loan and the type of mortgage that suits your financial standing but does not necessarily warrants a mortgage loan.

The three primary aspects tied in together to calculate the buyer's purchasing power and that the bank looks at when pre-qualifying a loan are the money available for move in and the credit history of the borrower.

Credit The minimum credit score requirement of the lending organization must be met by the potential borrower. However, an applicant's credit history is reviewed to see situations such as bankruptcy or foreclosure that can prevent the funding agency from approving the application even if the applicant has a qualifying credit score

Low Debt A low debt-to-income ratio is also reviewed by the Mortgage Company or bank assessing your information. They will look into monthly payments for your other loans like a car loan or student loan maybe, and then compare these to your monthly income.

Income Depending on the loaning organization's specifications, an applicant needs to prove a steady income for two to three years.

Assets Borrowers should have 6 to 12 months of mortgage payment reserves in their personal accounts before making the down payment,

Down Payment The down payment must come from the applicant's personal funds or in some cases, gifted money. An applicant must have a percentage of that loan for a down payment based on the type of loan s/he qualifies for.
