If your desire is high enough to take the next steps, it’s time to look at the second thing.<br /> <br /> <b>2. Income and credit.</b> For this step, you’ll need to talk to a financial professional like Ricardo Torres with Willow Bend Mortgage. He can help you find out whether your credit is good enough and what kind of home you can afford right now. You can start the process right here, and he can help you get a pre-qualification. He will take a look at your credit, employment history, and income to let you know exactly what you can afford.<br /> <div> <br /></div> </div> <div class="quote-box"> <div class="quote-text"> A pre-qualification will let you know what you can afford.</div> </div> <div style="text-align: left;"> <b><br />3.
