With Spring just around the corner which usually means the property market will start to warm up! With the current sales climate and a lack of stock the Perth market is already on fire.
If you are considering making that next property purchase, it could be a good idea to at least get pre-assessed by your broker or a pre-approval by a lender. Being ready with a pre-approval may give you that edge when it comes to negotiating on your purchase.
Not all lenders will do a fully assessed pre-approval and many only do a basic pre-approval, which means that when you proceed with your purchase your loan application will still need to go through a full assessment.
How long does a pre-approval take?
It varies from lender to lender from the time of application submission. Your broker should be able to give you an expected timeframe for your preferred lender. Providing the correct documentation up-front will help achieve a speedy turnaround.
