Prequalification

Once you’ve decided to make the jump into homeownership you'll most likely want to know "What house can I afford?" Meeting with a Peoples Bank mortgage lender to decide on the best price range for you and your family will help you to get prequalified for a mortgage loan. This is an important step towards new homeownership. Prequalification will signal to your real estate agent and sellers that you have secured financing for up to a specified amount — a clear indication to others that you're no longer just curious, but a serious home buyer.
