The terms mortgage pre-approval and pre-qualification unfortunately are used interchangeably which creates confusion amongst the buying public. Folks these two mortgage terms have very drastic meanings.

This really does not mean you are able to get a loan as nothing is verified. In comparing a mortgage Pre-approval vs Pre-qualification there is a world of differences.

These things are not done when getting pre-qualified. Take a look at the article to see why it makes sense for a buyer to get pre-approved and why most savvy home sellers will require it!
