Guidelines are in stone and there are generally no exceptions made for lower LTV’s or higher credit scores.
Approvals are via a computer program and are either approved or not approved.
There is no such thing as a stronger approval.
If assets are not needed, there is no reason to submit them.
If you have a clean situation, there is no reason for a refi to not go smoothly, unless you deal with the “flashy FinTech” 😉
