I wouldn't dissuade a buyer from talking to lenders early on as long as they don't get locked into anything.

Can I just cut and paste your entire site into mine? My only addition is try find a good mortgage person early on. Explain you're making baby steps towards home buying, see what kind of deal you could get now, and see what you'd get with a better credit score etc. If you get the brush off because you aren't about try and buy a home right this minute... well you know who NOT to use then.
