First-time home buyer loans may include:

  • FHA loans

Do I Qualify as a First-Time Home Buyer?

 You may qualify as a first-time home buyer if:

  • You’ve never owned a home
     
  • You haven’t owned a home in the past several years
     
  • You’re purchasing a primary residence

Mortgage Pre-Approval for First-Time Buyers

Mortgage pre-approval is a crucial step for first-time buyers. Pre-approval helps you understand how much home you can afford and strengthens your offer when you find the right home.

Through mortgage pre-approval, you’ll:

  • Know your price range
     
  • Understand your estimated monthly payment
     
  • Identify the best loan program
     
  • Shop for homes with confidence
