Glossary · The loan itself
In short
These are specific requirements the lender sets that you must fulfill before they will release the loan funds. You care because failing to meet any condition can delay or even cancel your loan disbursement and thus the entire deal.
Common conditions might include obtaining specific insurance policies, providing updated financial statements, or registering certain legal entities. Work closely with your attorney and lender to track and complete all these conditions well before the scheduled closing date.
