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.

Can you buy a house with an offer letter?

Offer letters aren't letters, they are legally binding contracts. Stop putting offers on homes if you don't know the implications of your actions and don't put your name on something that you don't read/understand. Basically, when a seller looks at offers, they have a choice of legally binding contracts to choose from.
