FAQ
It's quick and easy to apply for an AIP online. It should take about 15 minutes. We'll need to know details of your income and outgoings. You'll also need your addresses for the last 3 years. We'll do a soft credit check as part of the process. This won't affect your credit rating or your ability to borrow in the future.
The short answer is that it takes between 15-30mins depending on which lender you use. Although some companies may advise within 24 hours this is very rare and we think rather excessive. You can apply for an AIP via a Mortgage Broker, Financial Advisor or direct with a Lender, for example your bank or building society.

After obtaining an agreement in principle AIPs or MIPs (mortgage in principle) as they're also known, aren't set in stone and if your chosen lender carries out a deeper check on your employment and credit history and they conclude that you no longer meet their criteria, your mortgage application could get declined.
How reliable is a Mortgage in Principle (MIP)? A Mortgage in Principle is simply an indication of what you could potentially borrow, so long as you've been truthful and accurate with the information you've provided your lender or broker. However, it's not a guarantee that you'll get a mortgage for that amount later.
An Agreement, in Principle, is not a final decision. Being declined at this stage indicates potential issues with your credit history, property valuation, or affordability concerns. To address this, understand the specific reason, review your finances, seek advice, and consider exploring options with other lenders.
But it doesn't guarantee you a mortgage, and it is possible to be refused by a mortgage provider after they've given you an agreement in principle. If this happens, it's often because the lender found something that didn't meet their criteria when they did a full search of your information.
