Underwriting

Underwriting is the process undertaken by a Lender to assess the risk of lending to a particular Borrower. During the underwriting process, lenders will review the borrower’s income, employment, credit history, Debt-Service Ratios, Down-Payment and property details, among other things. A Borrower will not receive a firm approval for their Mortgage until the Lender has completed their underwriting.
