If you're looking to buy a home, you'll probably go through a mortgage lender. There are 3 key questions that you will be asked to find out if you're eligible for a mortgage:
  1. Do you have any gaps in your employment?
  2. Are you frequently changing jobs, and if you are, and they promotions?
  3. What is the probability of your continued employment?
These questions help determine if you are someone they feel comfortable lending to. Keep these in mind before you start looking!
