Are you navigating the mortgage process? Steer clear of these common missteps to keep your path to homeownership smooth and stress-free:



1️⃣ Neglecting Your Credit Score: Your score impacts your rate. Check your report early and work on improving your score by paying down debt and making timely payments.
2️⃣ Underestimating the Total Costs: It’s more than just a down payment. Budget for closing costs, insurance, and upkeep.
3️⃣ Skipping Pre-Approval: A pre-approval makes your offer stronger and shows sellers you're ready to buy.
4️⃣ Stretching Your Budget Too Thin: Stay comfortably within your means and leave room for unexpected costs.
5️⃣ Making Big Purchases Before Closing: Hold off on large expenses that could impact your credit or debt ratio.
