So what does an approval really mean?
Obtaining an approval gives you some confidence that you can look for a property within a specified price range. There are generally 3 stages in the approval process:
First: pre-approval or approval in principal, where the lender reviews your income, employment and confirms your deposit. This is the first step to establish your borrowing capacity.
You can now start to look for your property
Second: conditional approval, where the lender reviews your application in more detail and usually conducts a credit check. The loan amount is then approved in principle subject to a satisfactory valuation and any other information that the lender may require, such as mortgage insurance approval.
Finally a written Unconditional Approval means that you have satisfied all of the lender’s requirements including an acceptable valuation. You are now ready to exchange on your property and prepare moving into your new home.
