This is a small complicated, so bear with me.
I am trying to buy a home. After receiving a pre-qualified letter from a bank, I applied for a mortgage. I was recently turned down for the loan (too low income), but was told by my loan officer at the bank that I may be approved for a different, FHA loan.
I received a phone call from her today with what I thought was news telling me that I was approved for the loan. She mentioned the word "commitment letter" and said I'd have to sign more paperwork, because it was an FHA loan. She said congratulations, I said I was relieved.
But a few hours later, my loan processor at the bank left me a message telling me that the appraiser needed to change some paperwork because it is an FHA loan, and "then it will be sent back to underwriting for review."
Did I get the loan or not? After receiving that message, I immediately thought that maybe I somehow misunderstood my loan lady, and she was really telling me that I was re pre-approved for the FHA loan.
I didn't reckon I had to be pre-approved again; I already was in the first place! Now I'm really confused, and have no thought what to reckon. It's Memorial Day weekend, so both of them have already left until Tuesday.
What do you reckon?? Thanks so much!
Thanks for the fantastic information so far. I'm aware that my "pre-qualified" letter that I received in march when I started this whole process is NOT a loan commitment.
Also, the bank already has all of my information (I was denied a conventional mortgage just a week ago with them).
Thanks again.

The worst of the lot is payday loan because this loan has a processing fee of $15 to $50 and the loan term is usually only two weeks. One must try as much as possible to avoid payday loans and signature loans. While applying for a loan, ...
