Wouldn't it be better to just send my prospect to a loan officer?
Yes, in today's environment your buyer really does need to get pre-qualified, and preferably pre-approved for a loan before you start showing them homes. However, many prospects will be approaching you first, and these calculators enable you to pre-qualify someone within just a few minutes. That allows you to deepen your relationship with your buyer more quickly. This competitive advantage gives you the edge against other agents who may not have the ability to provide this level of service to their clients. You might meet someone through a yard sign, or an open house who is "just looking" and the ability to understand the appropriate price range for that buyer is an important first step you should take before showing them any homes.
