Aubrey mortgage advisor

A focused first conversation.

1. Share the scenario. Purchase timing, property path, and buyer profile — a 380-corridor new build or an acreage resale with ag exemption starts the file differently.
2. Organize the file. Income, assets, ID, and construction details if relevant. Rural property details can add steps, so a clean file matters here.
3. Clarify the next move. Know what still needs review before an offer — especially the financing deadlines in builder contracts.

What Tony asks before you make an offer in Aubrey.

1. Scenario. Primary home, second home, or investment? A builder's offer with outside financing, or a resale with land? The path shapes the whole file.
2. Timeline. Touring now or looking farther out? For new construction, note the estimated completion and any financing or rate-lock deadlines.
3. Buyer type. First-time buyer using FHA, conventional repeat buyer, veteran with VA eligibility, self-employed, relocating, or co-borrowing. Each changes the documents ahead.
4. Down payment range. Share the range and the funds you expect to use, so Tony can flag what needs documenting — reserves, gifts, or sale proceeds. Never send account numbers by text.
5. Builder details. Base price, options, earnest money, lender/title conditions, incentive expiration, completion estimate, financing deadline. The credit is one line of the package.

New construction: compare more than the incentive.

Aubrey is adding master-planned communities along the 380 corridor fast, and builder incentives are part of the conversation here. If you consider a builder-affiliated lender or title company, put the entire offer side by side.

• Sales contract. Price, upgrades, earnest money, option terms, completion estimate. In still-building communities, dates can move — get the estimate in writing.
• Incentive conditions. Who must provide financing or title services, and when the offer expires. Generous incentives often hinge on the builder's preferred lender or title company.
• Closing picture. Estimated cash needs, documented funds, credits, timing changes. Confirm what new tax or HOA structures actually cost at closing.
• Plan B. What happens if construction moves, a lock expires, or your job or funds change. With long builds, this line gets skipped most and regretted most.

Local note: Aubrey's Horse Country identity isn't just branding — ag-exempt acreage and larger lots share the market with new subdivisions. If your search includes land or a ranchette, expect different property and qualification questions, and plan extra time.

A plain-English document checklist.

• Pay stubs — Recent records showing employer, pay period, and year-to-date income.
• W-2s or 1099s — Recent annual income records that match how you are paid.
• Bank statements — Recent complete statements for funds you expect to use. Keep every page.
• Government-issued ID — A current photo ID. Share sensitive documents only through an approved secure channel.

Aubrey mortgage questions, answered directly.

How should I compare new construction with a resale home in Aubrey, TX?

Compare the full financing picture — price, incentive amount, lender/title conditions, closing costs, property details, timeline, and rate-lock timing. An acreage resale brings different repair, appraisal, and closing considerations than a new build. Tony can organize the questions; this page quotes no rates and recommends no property.

What documents may a self-employed buyer need for an Aubrey mortgage prequal?

Start with identification, recent personal and business tax returns when applicable, year-to-date profit-and-loss, recent business and personal bank statements, and 1099s or other income records. The exact request depends on the loan program, business structure, ownership percentage, and income pattern. Organize early — builder timelines don't wait for a document hunt.

What is the difference between a prequal and a preapproval for an Aubrey home purchase?

A prequal is an early conversation based on the information you provide; a preapproval is a more complete review of income, assets, credit, and documents. Builders often want a financing letter before design appointments — but neither is a final approval or a commitment to lend. Final approval rests on underwriting, the property, and program requirements.
