Money Wise Tips for Affording a Home in Aberdeen, NJ

Know when it might be better to wait until your situation improves and when you're in a financially strong enough position to buy a home in Aberdeen. Start the process with the following steps and call a Mr. Cooper Mortgage Professional to discuss strategy.
Examine your finances. Look at the whole picture. What are your general thoughts about your financial situation, credit history, savings, and current monthly expenses? A little "gut check" can go a long way. A solid way to start your Aberdeen home buying journey is with a healthy credit history, a good handle on your current expenses, and enough savings for a minimum 20% down payment.
Now, let's "put pencil to paper," as they say. Plug in some numbers to Mr. Cooper's affordability calculator and see where you (and your budget) stand. You can estimate about how much house you can afford in Aberdeen based on your desired maximum monthly mortgage payment and income. Will this number get you into the Aberdeen home or neighborhood you've had your eye on? If not, think about increasing your down payment or looking in surrounding areas. If it will, then move on to your next step. Call Mr. Cooper!
It's time to prequalify for a home in Aberdeen. Prequalification is a more formal estimate of how much of a home loan you could get approved for.

Start with Mr. Cooper’s online prequalification tool. Let us know where you'd like to buy a home in Aberdeen, the property type, how you anticipate using the property, and whether or not you're currently working with a real estate professional. Enter your expected purchase price and down payment. Provide a few more personal details and you're clicks away from being prequalified. The process is straightforward. Prequalification lasts 120 days.
