Top reasons for a declined mortgage application Some common reasons for your mortgage application being declined include: your credit history. too much debt. your employment history.
The average time for a mortgage to be approved is usually 2 to 6 weeks. It can take as little as 24 hours but this is usually rare. You should expect to wait two weeks on average while the mortgage lender gets the property surveyed and underwrites your mortgage.
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.
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.
