AI agent for loan officers
Pre-Approval Expiry and Renewal Agent
No buyer is left with an expired or inaccurate pre-approval, and each renewal reflects current facts
What it does
A pre-approval letter lasts 60 to 90 days, and many buyers are still looking when it ends. Credit, income or rates may have changed, so the old letter is no longer safe to rely on. This agent tracks the expiry date of every letter. About 14 days before, it checks for changes: new credit pulls, new debts, job changes in the file and rate moves. It writes to the buyer with a request for updated pay stubs and bank statements. Once documents arrive, it rechecks eligibility against current guidelines, rebuilds the numbers and drafts a renewed letter or a revised amount. If the buyer no longer qualifies for the old amount, it explains the difference. The loan officer approves every renewed letter and all contact. Edge case: the buyer opened a car loan, and the debt ratio now fails.
How it works
Follow the arrows from top to bottom. The orange dashed arrow is the loop: when a check fails, the agent goes back and tries again.
Read the steps as a list

- Loan officer approves the request messageThe agent waits here for your OK.
- Review the new documents when they arrive
- Recalculate income, debts, assets and ratios at today's rate
- Does the buyer still meet guidelines for the approved amount?If not: calculate the new qualifying amount and prepare an explanation. Back to step 7.
- Were all required documents received?If not: send a reminder every three days until the date of expiry and mark the file at risk. Back to step 6.

How it decides
It renews only when updated documents show debt-to-income, credit and assets still meet the guidelines at the current rate, and it revises the amount when they do not.
- Start the renewal at 14 days before expiry
- Require pay stubs from the last 30 days
- Revise the amount if debt-to-income exceeds 45%
- Mark files at risk if documents are missing 5 days before expiry
