According to the National Association of Realtors® article many first-time home buyers don't take the time to get pre-qualified. One of the first things you should do to be prepared to buy a home is to get pre-qualified. Getting pre-qualified is the initial step in the mortgage process, and it's generally fairly simple. You supply a bank or lender with your overall financial picture, including your debt, income and assets. After evaluating this information, a lender can give you an idea of the mortgage amount for which you qualify.
