    so long as you can prove information given on the dip then there should not be a problem, but nothing is guaranteed and you could be turned down on full app , so nothing can be taken for grantd till you get the offer out.

    it is exactly as grogdog has posted earlier, nothing is 100% until the final underwriting checks are done and offer issued. Who is yr lender?

    I was under the impression a lot of mortgages are falling through when the valuation survey is done. If the house is valued lower than expected then it can mean you won't qualify for the LTV requirements of that particular lender.

    I had it happen to a client with C & G the other week.

    I got him an agreement in principle for £99000. Two weeks later, he came back to say he now only needed £97000.
    Because of the change in borrowing, it had to be re scored. This time it declined.
    C & G said it was because they had tightened their scoring between the two searches.
