How OpenList works
Lender partner link can be swapped when approved

Get mortgage-ready before you make an offer

A pre-approval letter helps sellers know you are a serious buyer and gives you a clearer budget before you start negotiating. OpenList USA is not a lender, so the actual application is completed with a licensed lender.

Step 1

Estimate your range

Review the property price, likely payment, taxes, insurance, and your current monthly debts.

Step 2

Apply with a lender

A lender may review income, assets, debts, employment, and credit before issuing a pre-approval letter.

Step 3

Attach it to your offer

When you contact a seller, mention that you are pre-approved and keep the letter ready for the offer packet.

Continue to a lender

This button currently sends buyers to a national lender pre-approval page. When OpenList signs an approved mortgage partner or referral agreement, this destination can be changed with one environment variable instead of changing code.

Continue to Chase mortgage preapproval

You are leaving OpenList USA. The lender controls its own application, credit authorization, rates, fees, underwriting decisions, privacy policy, and disclosures.
