THE MORTGAGE APPROVAL PROCESS
Step 1- Pre-Qualification:
Meet with a mortgage broker.
Find out how much you can afford to pay for a home.
Step 2- Pre-Approval:
Sellers will be more receptive to buyers who have been pre-approved.
You'll also avoid being disappointed when going after homes that are out of your price range.
What are the benefits of
pre-approval?
With Pre-Approval, the buyer actually applies for a mortgage and receives a commitment in writing from a lender.
This way, assuming the home you're interested in is at or under the amount you are pre-qualified for, the seller knows immediately that you are a serious buyer for that property.
Costs for pre-approval are generally nominal and lenders will usually permit you to pay them when you close your loan.
STEP 3: Make 2 lists.
List 1: Your Needs
The first should include items you must have
> the number of bedrooms you need
> floors
> size of the house
> type of house

List 2: Your Needs
The second list is your wishes - things you would like to have, but that are not absolutely necessary.
Examples are a pool or a den.
Realistically for first-time buyers, you probably will not get everything on your wish list, but it will keep you on track for what you are looking for.

OUR SAN RAMON REAL ESTATE AGENTS
Agent
Rama Mehra
With her top-producing status and ranked as one of the best San Ramon Realtor's, $1.208 BILLION + in sales, and about 927+ satisfied clients, Rama Mehra is the real estate agent whom clients want on their side, bar none, and she has garnered industry-wide praise from clients and agents alike.
Rama moved to the U.S. in 1999 from Kenya and first made her mark in broadcasting and the nonprofit sector before entering real estate. Part of what makes Rama a dream agent is her abundance of tenacity and grit, much of which stems from her previously challenging adjustment to a new life in the U.S. She also learned how to survive her initial years as an agent during the 2008 market collapse, while offering her empathy to the homeowners who suffered the most from it. Over the years, there has been no shortage of reasons why Rama has secured both repeat and referral business, and her dozens of industry accolades dating back to 2006 are further testaments to her glowing reputation.
Rama currently lives in San Ramon and is a proud mother to two artistic, successful sons.
