What makes a ACT mortgage brief stronger

1. State whether this is a purchase, refinance, or pre-approval request.
2. Include the property or borrower state and your preferred timing.
3. Mention anything material such as deposit position, lender review, or self-employed income.
4. Review contact details before you submit.
