Conventional wisdom says that homebuyers should first find the home of their dreams, and then start look- ing for a way of paying for it. Franklin First couldn't disagree more. The way we see it, you can avoid a lot of stress and uncertainty by putting the search for a mortgage first. That's why we offer a free, no-obliga- tion Franklin First-Step Mortgage Pre-Qualification Program. i Just come in and meet with one of our helpful loan counselors. Based on information about your income, x assets and liabilities we'll be able to determine how much you can comfortably afford to borrow — and what that may mean in terms of home prices. That way, you'll be able to know exactly what you'll be able to afford before you go out looking. And whether or not you find the home of your dreams, there’s no charge for this service. What's more, being pre-qualified gives you extra negoti- ating power with your Realtor® and seller. They can confidently accept your offer without having to worry that you won't be able to find financing. FRANKLIN FIRST Member FDIC NKLIN FIRST | Subsidiary of ONBANCorp, Inc. SAMPLE Pre-Approval.
