Why Check Your Borrowing Capacity Before House Hunting?

Why Check Your Borrowing Capacity Before House Hunting?

In Luxembourg’s fast-paced and competitive real estate market, it’s crucial to structure your project ahead of time. Yet many prospective buyers still make the mistake of starting to search for a property without assessing their borrowing capacity first. The result? Wasted time, missed opportunities, and sometimes even a mortgage refusal at the final stage.

 

🔀 The smart approach is to start with a clear analysis of your borrowing power. It’s the first step to a successful property project.
