Understanding Real Estate Terms: From Pre-Approval Letters to Townhouses
Introduction
Navigating the world of real estate can be daunting without a grasp of essential terms. In this ongoing series, we explore key definitions, starting with the Pre-Approval Letter.
Key Real Estate Terms
1. Pre-Approval Letter
A Pre-Approval Letter is a document from a lender confirming that a buyer is eligible to borrow up to a specified amount. This approval is based on the buyer’s financial documentation. Final approval requires a purchase contract, a satisfactory property appraisal, and an underwriting review. Essentially, if the property qualifies and conditions remain stable, the loan is secure.
2. Pre-Qualification Letter
Similar to pre-approval, a Pre-Qualification Letter indicates that a buyer can obtain a loan of a certain amount. It mentions the property's price and the information the lender considered. If the lender reviews the borrower’s credit file, the pre-qualification holds more weight than if it’s solely based on the borrower’s word.
3. Real Estate or Real Property
This term encompasses land, any plants growing on it, minerals beneath it, and any structures or improvements on it.
4. Septic System
A septic system is an independent waste disposal method often unfamiliar to urban residents. It includes a holding tank where enzymes and bacteria break down waste, and a drainage field where the soil filters the residuals. Effective in well-draining soil, more complex systems are necessary in areas with clay soil or high water tables. Some properties cannot support septic systems until public sewage is available.
5. Title Insurance
This insurance protects the policyholder’s ownership or financial interest in a property if an unexpected claim to the title arises, such as an unknown heir.
6. Townhouse
A townhouse is a single-family home sharing common walls with adjacent units.
