Prequalified And Pre-approved: What's the Difference?
If you're thinking about buying a home, then you've probably heard the terms "pre-approval" and "prequalification." While often used interchangeably, there's a slight difference between the two.
Both terms refer to the initial steps taken to determine whether you're a strong applicant for a home loan and how much. But there's a difference between prequalified and pre-approval.
✅ Prequalified essentially is an estimate of how much your mortgage can be (the same as a pre-approval), but it's nothing more than that --an estimate. It's the easiest first step to take in your home buying journey. The mortgage professional will review your financial history (like your income and debt) and sometimes they may check your credit score, too.
It's important to note that prequalification doesn't guarantee mortgage approval. It's only an estimate. If you want something more definitive, get pre-approved.
✅ Pre-approval is more involved because the mortgage professional will evaluate your credit score and do a complete verification of income and assets. Here's some of the documentation needed for pre-approval include:
Tax returns
W-2s or 1099s
Recent pay stubs
Recent bank statements from the accounts
Your credit score
💪 As you can see, pre-approval gives you a much stronger idea of what you can afford.
Does Getting Prequalified And Pre-approved Even Matter?
Getting prequalified is excellent if you only want an estimate of how much you can afford. It's a great way to start planning and preparing to buy a home.
However, pre-approval carries a lot more weight. With pre-approval, you'll have a clearer idea of how much you can borrow, what your interest rate might be, and you'll be taken more seriously as a potential buyer when you begin your home search.
Pre-approval also gives you insight into your credit and whether you have some work to do on that end before you apply for a home loan.
💥💥 The Bottom Line: Prequalified Versus Pre-approved 💥💥
Remember that neither prequalification nor pre-approval guarantees home loan approval, but it does matter!
Ready to get pre-approved? Start your application online today! By running a full credit check and reviewing your finances, you'll be much more prepared for getting a mortgage.

Hey Realtors, do you want to get an extra listing from each listing you represent?
I’m hosting a free live training this Thursday, March 11th about this.
We call it the 72-Hour Listing process and it’s designed to create a bunch of home buyer leads and a few seller leads in the first 3 days you market a listing.
You have to list to last as they say and I want you to be around a long time.
Join us live on Thursday and you’ll discover the 3-day process that will blow you up with opportunities every time you get a listing.
Let’s do this and scoop up more of the Summer business that’s coming.
Drop your favorite GIF and I’ll send you a link. :)
Another rapid closing in the books!
Facts!
Think it's a bubble? 🏘️
Cash-out refinance volume over the last three years is less than a third of what it was compared to the three years before the most recent real estate crash. More than 38% of homeowners have paid off their mortgage “free and clear,” and another 18.7% have paid off over 50% of their mortgage.
This positive equity perspective puts the current housing market in a much stronger place, minimizing risk of foreclosure and stabilizing home values across the U.S.

Veteran Owned & Operated
For most of my life, I have been a United States Sailor and Chief Petty Officer in the United States Navy!
I will always be a husband and father first, but I am proud to have served for more than 24 years. I spent most of my time in the Submarine Force with my final tour as the Chief of the Boat (COB) of the USS HAMPTON SSN767.
I have done seven deployments in the western pacific and Persian Gulf. I have been to the North Pole and surfaced five times through the ice. I have been to Japan, China, Philippines, Singapore, South Korea, Guam, and Saipan. I have been to Bahrain, Greece, Diego Garcia, and transited the Suez Canal. I have been at the helm of a 360 ft, 7,600-ton submarine in water depths less than 150ft or water. I have been where no one else can go without anyone knowing I was there. I proudly served in the "Silent Service"...I am a Submariner!
I decided to start in real estate and more specifically loan origination as a hobby. I believe personal wealth and financial independence lies in real estate, so I chose the one aspect in real estate that allows me to continue to serve. Since working in this industry and becoming more and more educated in the mortgage loan process and available products, I quickly realized that there is so much about buying a home that I was unaware of...things I wish I knew when I bought the homes I have owned throughout my life.
