Certified Buyer Pre-Approval Program

Make a confident offer for the home you want.

What it means to be “certified”


Our Certified Buyer Pre-Approval Program is not your standard pre-qualification. We will fully underwrite your loan to determine how much you could be approved for by verifying your information and documentation.

Consider becoming a Certified Buyer when you're ready to start looking for a home, so you can write an offer with the confidence of already being approved. This can make you as attractive as a cash buyer when negotiating for your home and may even make the difference between your offer being accepted over another!

As a Certified Buyer, you can benefit from: 

  • Closing your loan in as little as 10 business days after pre-approval.
  • Competing directly with cash buyers by receiving an approved loan commitment, subject only to property-specific information, before making an offer.
  • Having access to our Lock-and-Shop Program, which guarantees your rate for 60 days. If rates decrease, you may be eligible to take advantage of a lower rate*. You can lock in your rate even before you find a home.  
  • Alleviating the need for a financing contingency.
