What price home can I afford??

Most people use financing of one type or another to buy a house, since few of us can afford to pay for a home in cash.  The amount you can afford will depend upon how much cash you have for your down payment, plus the amount of loan you can afford according to your income and debts.  Before viewing any homes, usually, we will set up an appointment with a lender for you, so that you have an up-to-the-minute estimate on all your costs, and your qualification amount.  The lender will pre-approve your loan before you go shopping for a house, or soon thereafter.  This puts you in a very strong position when negotiating with a seller.
