A Smarter Way to Sell in a High-Rate Market

American Pacific Mortgage (APM) will lock in a discounted starting rate* for your buyer, which helps you stand out, sell faster, and get rewarded. It’s not just a special offer – it’s a strategy.


*A discounted, starting rate is offered by American Pacific Mortgage. Buyers will be required to apply and qualify, and the interest rate is subject to adjustment based on the specific buyer factors, terms and conditions. This is not a commitment to lend.

What is Seller PreLock?

Seller PreLock is a unique mortgage program where APM locks in a rate reduction* for the future buyer of their home. This forward lock gives your listing a competitive edge and helps buyers feel more confident when making an offer.

In a market where rates are high and unpredictable, Seller PreLock helps create certainty, urgency, and confidence—for everyone involved.
