What is a Mortgage Pre-approval?

This is a promise from a Lender to state that 'in principle' they would lend a certain amount based on accurate information being provided.

Is This 100% Guaranteed?

No. If any of the information you have provided is incorrect, the Lender has the right to decline or altar the deal.

Will My Information be Safe?

We have worked closely with the lenders to understand which documents they require. The information you provide is to ensure we meet those requirements and identify who you are by undertaking credit checks to help speed up the process for both you and the Lender.

All the information provided will be kept in our secure site.

This can be used for future applications for a mortgage, personal loan, or credit card. You will be required to update your existing profile if you have a change of circumstance.

What are the benefits to getting pre-approved?

Having this pre-approval can act as a differentiator when purchasing a property. It shows that in theory you can afford the property in question, making you more favourable against other potential buyers.

Using our service to obtain a pre-approval will enable you to speed up the mortgage application process as the Lender will have all the relevant required information to agree your mortgage.

What Else Should I Know About Pre-Approvals?

This pre-approval is not a guarantee. By providing accurate information and documents, you will have a better chance that the Lender will fulfill the pre-approval offered to you.

During this process it is necessary to verify your identity and credit history with the Credit Bureau's. We will undertake a soft search with your permission. This will not impact any further applications for credit and will be visible for you to see within your credit profile.
