Getting pre approval before house hunting in Penrith saved me from a huge mess
Got pre approved first this time around and it was night and day compared to my first go at buying in Penrith about 4 years back. First time I just started looking at places and talking to agents with no paperwork sorted. Second time I sat down with a broker, got the pre approval sorted, and suddenly sellers actually took me seriously. The kicker was the first place I looked at had a weird easement thing and I nearly signed something dumb just because I was desperate. This time my broker caught it straight away. Cost me nothing to get the pre approval done either. Curious if others reckon getting pre approved early actually made a difference for them or if it was more about the agent you dealt with?
