There are 4 stages when getting a mortgage:

  • Decision/Approval in principal (DIP or AIP)
  • Mortgage in principal (MIP)
  • Mortgage valuation
  • Mortgage offer

From initial meeting with the mortgage lender/broker to getting your mortgage offer can take upwards of 4 weeks, or 2/3 weeks from receiving your mortgage in principle. Make sure to keep on top of chasing your mortgage lender to get you mortgage offer as your solicitor can't help you with this.

The mortgage application process takes longer than you think. You can get a DIP/AIP very quickly, however you need to make sure you get your formal application submitted to get a Mortgage in Principle (MIP).

Once you have a MIP the lender will go value the property and only after this stage will you get your mortgage offer. From start to finish it can be as quick as 2 weeks and as long as 5 weeks.
