My wife and I are going through separation. She rushed to buy another house while still being married to me. Because we currently have a loan for our home, she’s having a hard time getting approved for another loan.

Her loan officer wants to make this letter thats “only for underwriting” for her to get approved. I don’t feel comfortable signing it though because this isn’t what her and I agreed on. Can this be held in court?

February 11, 2026 To whom it may concern, Due to ongoing marital issues myself and husband have decided to enter a trail separation. We have two children from marriage and we have both waived the right to child support alimony along with the division of assets including our jointly held home located at Stratford, CT. We both decided it would be best to vacate our marital home and rent it with the proceeds of the rent coming directly to me to help offset my future housing payment. My husband will be moving back with his parents during this time and will not have a housing payment. I will be using 100% of my own money towards the purchase of

Apartment A, Stratford Ct and will move in and occupy it as my primary residence. A lot of thought went into this decision. The fact I will not have to worry about home maintenance along with the properties ability to generate over $1,000 per month in positive cash flow will make the condo I am purchasing more affordable. Thank you,
