Mortgage Pre-Approval Letter Types

  1. Generic Mortgage Pre-Approval Letter Template. Use this document to congratulate an individual whose mortgage application package was approved. It is likely you have discussed the loan options earlier and the homebuyer has already offered you proof of income and assets and verified their good credit score. To invite the letter recipient to sign the mortgage agreement, you need to greet them by their name, certify your intent to issue a mortgage loan, indicate the terms of the arrangement (the duration of the loan and its amount), request the borrower to send you a real estate purchase agreement and a copy of the property title to be able to formalize the deal, and add your contact information to let the reader reach out to you to obtain funding for the upcoming transaction.
  2. Sample Mortgage Pre-Approval Letter. This generic template will be useful for any mortgage bank or financial institution that offers and finalizes home loans. Notify the prospective homebuyer about your decision to lend them a certain sum of money for the purchase of real property and list the conditions that must be met before you sign an agreement that obliges them to make regular mortgage payments. Note that you must warn the recipient this letter will not be considered a commitment and it is their choice to contact you and enter contract negotiations.
