Modesto is the Stanislaus County seat and the hub of the central San Joaquin Valley, with tree-lined older neighborhoods, the master-planned Village One community and a strong agricultural economy. We help Modesto buyers, homeowners and investors with purchase loans, refinances and rental property financing. Getting pre-approved for a home loan in Modesto tells you exactly how much home you can afford, what your monthly payment will look like and which loan program fits, before you fall in love with a house. It takes a short application and a handful of documents, and there is no obligation.

Modesto's affordability relative to the Bay Area and Sacramento draws first-time buyers, commuters and investors, and FHA, VA and conventional low-down-payment loans are all common here. Long-time homeowners frequently refinance or open HELOCs to fund improvements on older homes. Your pre-approval amount in Modesto depends on income, monthly debts, credit score, down payment and the loan program. We show you how each factor changes the number, and if you want to stretch to a particular price point we map out exactly what it would take.

Housing ranges from 1920s to 50s homes in the College area and downtown to 1960s to 80s neighborhoods along McHenry Avenue, 1990s and 2000s subdivisions in Village One and northeast Modesto, and newer construction on the north and east edges of the city. We stay involved after the letter is issued. When you find a home in Modesto, we update the pre-approval to the exact price and terms, talk through the offer strategy with your agent, and lock the rate as soon as the contract is signed.
A pre-approval is typically valid for 60 to 90 days, and we refresh it as needed while you search in Modesto. If rates or guidelines change, you will hear it from us first, along with what it means for your budget.
