Most first time home buyers want to look at homes... they often shop for a mortgage loan only after they've fallen in love with a particular house.
Potential Problems:
Your dream house gets sold to another buyer while you wait for mortgage loan approval.
Sellers refuse to consider your offer because without a pre-approved mortgage loan you can't prove you have the financial resources to purchase a home.
You pay through the nose for mortgage loans you could have gotten for thousands of dollars less if you had taken the time to shop.
Audrie's Advice:
Get pre-approved for a mortgage loan at the start of your search for a home.
