Want to view property without pre-approval.

[Ella Fleur]

Hi! I am very interested in a duplex for sale near my grandmother's house in Florida. I'm interested in this specific property for investment purposes only, it's a low price. If I view the property and it's not for me, I'm not looking for anything else as I'm an opportunity buyer. 

I called the realtor and they want me to pre-approve. I'm not wanting my credit pulled every time I see an investment I might be interested in. Is there a way to convey this?

@Ella Fleur Some banks will do a what they've called a DTI approval based off the numbers you give them for incomes and debts. They'll still pull your credit though when you go to apply for the loan.
