PITTSFIELD – Legacy Banks will host a free Mortgage Pre-Qualification Program at its Merrill Road Office for those interested in learning what type of home they can afford to purchase. Part of Legacy’s Monthly Pre-Qualification Series, the session will be held from 5 to 7 p.m., Wednesday, July 30 at Legacy Banks, 609 Merrill Rd., Pittsfield.
Those who qualify will leave with a pre-qualification certificate and a coupon for $250 off closing costs. Attendees should bring a current pay stub and most recent tax return. Self-employed individuals should bring two years of tax returns. Mortgage officers will be on hand to meet one-on-one with individuals or families to determine the amount of a mortgage for which they will be pre-qualified, barring any changes in their financial status.
