The Unconditional Offer Trap 🛑
Think a bank pre-approval means you're safe to make an unconditional offer? Think again! 🛑
A pre-approval only checks YOUR finances—it does NOT mean the bank approved the property.
If the lender finds issues like unpermitted renovations, environmental risks, or problems with the building itself, they can decline to lend on that home altogether.
If you've already waived financing, you could lose your entire deposit. Always get property approval before waiving conditions! 🏡
