A Mortgage in Principle isn't the same as a mortgage offer.
Sometimes called an Agreement in Principle or Decision in Principle, it gives an indication of how much a lender might be prepared to lend based on an initial assessment.
It can help you understand your potential property budget before you begin making serious offers, but it isn't a guarantee that a full mortgage application will be approved.
The property and your full circumstances still need to meet the lender's requirements.
