I'm about 95% sure this guys has just been fricking around on me......

How long does it generally take to get an asnwer on pre-qualification/pre-approval?

My wife and I want to know what we can and can't spend on a home before we go out and start making decisions.

It's coming up on 3 weeks now that this guy has had every bit of our paperwork this company required to make this determination.

Am I right? or is this a process that could have been done a long time ago? My wife called today and he said "he's done with '09 and is working on '10 and will call back within the hour."

Like I said, my guess is he hasn't done shite on this work.

Shouldn't take more than a couple of days at the absolute most.

Are either of you self-employed?

I can't give you an answer on how long it takes, I just know the industry has changed in the past couple of years. What used to take a couple of days now can take weeks or months. Alot of the mortgage companies cut back their employees.

Our mortgage guy had our pre approval within 30 minutes. Thankfully my wife has killer credit score.

It takes longer for poor people to get qualified.
