Qualifying
You have to get pre-qualified these days. It has gotten where most good REALTORS wont even show you a home unless you are. Let me blunt FINANCING a Home these days is not easy. But there are lots of options depending on your circumstance.

Choosing a Lender?
It is always you as the buyer that has a choice of who you pick to do your financing.....However
How many loans have you gotten?
I personally have gotten close to 20 myself and have been involved with helping my clients get 100's.
Some points to consider:
-
Avoid using your bank unless you are very strong financially and your getting a preferred loan
-
Never use Out of Town Companies, ie, Quicken, Lending Tree-They strictly operate by the book with limited flexibility and you are just a small piece of their business
-
Compare loans apples to apples
