This depends on a number of factors. First your pre-approval was determined on the state of your credit report at this time. You approval depends on your debt/income ratio and your credit history. It takes into account how many cards you now have an obligation to repay. Often creditors like to see you having cards and how well you handle them, but too many obligations could scare them off. If you are simple consolidating into one loan, without adding to your overall debt to income ratio, then I see no reason this should harm you. If you are considering taking out more credit, then it would hurt you.
But, if you could wait until escrowww closes, I reckon this would be a safer option. Usually it takes 30 days to close escro on a home buy. I would get out there and find the house I wanted and close escro, then consolidate cards and other debt into one loan. I reckon it would also be simpler to do so when you have bought a home. It is always in your best appeal credit wise to own rather than rent. When you own you are making more assets in the form of equity. Lenders like to see your overall financial state and building equity is rather like money in the bank.
I recommend you seek out a financial adviser, pay the fee for a professional opinion and not rely on what is written here.
I wish you all the best life has to offer.
