How will my current Mortgage approval be affected by Covid-19?
Your mortgage approval, or approval in principle, will not be affected by Covid-19, however, the next two steps to receiving your mortgage, e.g. the formal letter of approval and the mortgage drawdown may be impacted by the pandemic. To move through these steps it’s likely you’ll need to confirm that your financial situation has not changed since you got your “approval in principle.”
Can I extend my mortgage approval?
This depends on the lender. If your financial circumstances have not changed since the start of the pandemic, a lender may consider extending.
However, if your financial has changed, the lender may very well keep the approval available for the agreed amount of time before requesting evidence on your current financial circumstances.
Will there be a delay in drawing down my mortgage?
If you have provided all documentation requested by the lender there shouldn’t be any delay.
I haven’t applied for a mortgage yet. Can I still get mortgage approval
Yes, you can. Lenders are offering approval in principal during the Covid-19 pandemic. Most lenders have made it known that as usual, mortgage approval will be assessed on a case by case basis.
