Oh, this 100% happens. I’ve been getting texts and calls fopre-approval about 6 different area codes since applying for preapproval.
Once you complete the purchase you will start getting fake letters about you already being delinquent on your mortgage lol.
Good luck all the same though!
No problem! While I’m at it, I should also warn you that your mortgage will probably be sold off to another lender almost immediately. So, one of those letters wont be fake, it will be a notification of the mortgage changing hands.
It’s such a sham of a process, but good luck, it’s worth it to own your own 4 walls.
