What is the difference between a letter of offer and approval in principle?

Lenders give 'approval in principal' which is a statement of how much they are prepared to lend you. A 'letter of offer' is what you will receive when your mortgage has been fully approved, and you only get this after your offer on a property has been accepted.

What happens after a mortgage offer is issued?

A mortgage offer means your application has been accepted by a lender. After the offer, you'll sign a contract with your lender to let them know you're happy with it. Then your conveyancer can start the legal work.
