Obtaining pre-approval for your VA loan amount is an excellent time-saving step. Once you know the exact amount you're eligible for in your VA home loan, you can begin searching for a home as a 'serious buyer'. You'll know in advance exactly what you can afford and what is outside your price range.

It's the kind of security you'll be grateful for as you search for the best value for your money. With pre-approval, you avoid wasting time with property that's out of your price range or sellers who are unsure whether you mean business.
