The borrower is asking and trying to persuade the lender to lend him money
The lender has to ascertain the credit risk of a borrower: high, low, medium, etc
Most lenders have certain criteria before they even consider a loan application
it's basically on us to make the due diligence and check before going out to the first entity to ask.

A borrower can seek pre-approval and the lender will know right away if the borrower meets their minimum requirements
