Kickstart with Pre-Qualification
Start strong by getting pre-qualified. This not only sets your budget but also signals serious intent to sellers. With Texas Lending Partners, you'll grasp varied mortgage options early on, ensuring informed decisions.
The Adventure of House Hunting
This is where dreams come alive! While savoring the thrill of home tours, rope in a local Real Estate Agent to pinpoint the best matches. Think beyond just rooms – explore neighborhoods, amenities, and even school districts.
Seal the Deal
Found your dream space? It's negotiation time! Armed with your pre-qualification, and with Texas Lending Partners and our network of trusted agents, we’ll craft an offer that resonates with the seller.
Navigate Underwriting
With an accepted offer, the clock's ticking. It's underwriting time! Fortunately, you're ahead as you began your groundwork during pre-qualification. Expect a smoother sail here.
Inspect and Assure
Usually, a 7-10 day window is reserved for home inspections. This phase ensures you're investing in a home that's sound and safe.
Appraisal Insights
An external appraiser evaluates the home to ensure the purchase aligns with its market value. It's about securing your investment and ensuring a fair deal.
Shield with Homeowners Insurance
Required by all lenders, homeowners insurance safeguards the property. Texas Lending Partners can suggest trusted insurance partners for a seamless experience.
Finalize Underwriting
With the appraisal and insurance in place, it's almost the home stretch. The underwriting process concludes, and you'll soon hear the magic words – "Cleared To Close."
