mortgage pre-approval

Secure your rate with a mortgage pre-approval

Embarking on the journey to homeownership in North Bay starts with understanding the crucial step of mortgage pre-approval. At The Mortgage Centre - Rock Capital Mortgage Brokerage, independently owned by Todd Schofield, we're dedicated to guiding you through this pivotal process, ensuring you're well-prepared to find your dream home in North Bay and its surrounding areas.

Why Mortgage Pre-Approval Matters

Mortgage pre-approval is the first step in your home buying journey, providing you with a clear picture of what you can afford. This not only strengthens your position when making an offer but also gives you and the seller confidence that you're a serious and qualified buyer.

  • Clarity on Affordability: Know exactly how much you can borrow, which helps in narrowing down your home search to properties within your budget.
  • Interest Rate Lock: Benefit from a locked-in interest rate for 120 days protecting you from potential rate increases.
  • Increased Buying Power: A pre-approval letter signals to sellers that you're a committed buyer, often giving you an edge in competitive markets.

Our Mortgage Pre-Approval Process

At The Mortgage Centre - Rock Capital Mortgage, we've streamlined our pre-approval process to be as efficient and straightforward as possible:

  • Initial Consultation: We start with a discussion about your financial situation, homeownership goals, and any specific needs you have.
  • Documentation: You'll need to provide essential documents, including proof of income, assets, and identification.
  • Credit Check: We'll conduct a credit check to assess your creditworthiness and ensure you meet lending criteria.
  • Pre-Approval Issuance: Once everything checks out, we'll issue a pre-approval letter outlining your approved mortgage amount and interest rate.
