Loan questions people ask us
What is the difference between prequalification and preapproval?
Both are letters that say how much a lender is willing to lend you, up to an amount and based on certain assumptions. Neither is a guaranteed loan offer. Some lenders give a prequalification from numbers you report and a preapproval only after they verify them. Either letter helps a seller take your offer seriously.

What is a Loan Estimate, and when do I get one?
It is a three-page form a lender gives you after you apply for a mortgage. The lender must provide it within three business days of your application. It shows the estimated interest rate, monthly payment and total closing costs, and every lender uses the same form.

Can I compare offers from other lenders?
Yes. You are always free to choose any lender you like. The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau suggests getting official loan offers from lenders and comparing them before you choose. Because every Loan Estimate uses the same form, offers line up side by side.
