To begin the mortgage pre-approval process it’s best to have an initial consultation with a Mortgage Broker, whether in person, or over the phone. During the initial discussion the broker will ask a series of questions regarding employment, income, credit, debt, and assets. It’s also important during this process for us to understand the borrower’s future plans to ensure the appropriate mortgage term is chosen.
