Letter Text

I refer to your recent visit to our Ballina office and the mortgage application form which was
completed in respect of the property at Lake Lodge. We obtained all the information required
by the lender and submitted a formal mortgage application to them. You will recall the extra
information required was in respect of annual employment and rental income. (New
Paragraph) I am pleased to confirm that the mortgage application for €200,000.00 has been
formally approved by the lender and we await their written confirmation, which should arrive
next Tuesday. (New Paragraph) It will be necessary for you to visit our office to complete
the paperwork. I know you are anxious to complete the purchase as soon as possible so
perhaps you could let me know your availability and I will arrange a meeting to suit your
schedule. (New Paragraph) I look forward to hearing from you.
