Your loan is never fully approved until the underwriter confirms that you are able to pay back the loan. Underwriters can deny your loan application for several reasons, from minor to major. Some of the minor reasons that your underwriting is denied for are easily fixable and can get your loan process back on track.

Why does underwriting take so long?

Underwriters often request additional documents. This is when the mortgage lender’s underwriter (or underwriting department) reviews all paperwork relating to the loan, the borrower, and the property being purchased. It’s another reason why mortgage lenders take so long to approve loans.

Do underwriters usually approve loans?

An underwriter will approve or reject your mortgage loan application based on your credit history, employment history, assets, debts and other factors. It’s all about whether that underwriter feels you can repay the loan that you want. But a seasoned loan originator is the integral part of the whole process, he says.

Can underwriting be done in 24 hours?
