Pre-Qualified vs Pre-Approved

These two sound the same — but to a seller, they're worlds apart. 🏡
✅ Pre-QUALIFIED = a quick estimate based on what you tell the lender. Easy, but not verified.
✅ Pre-APPROVED = the lender verified your income, credit & assets. This is the one that makes sellers take your offer seriously.
In a competitive Columbus market, show up pre-approved and you'll beat buyers who didn't. 💪
