I would personalize it with a picture of yourself and sign the bottom to make it official.

You need a pitch to win in a personal letter.

Ideally I am looking to keep the purchase and renovation cost between $175-200K.  

Consult with a Financial Advisor: Seek advice to navigate negotiations and explore refinancing options that best fit your needs.By taking these steps, you can work towards lowering your interest costs while keeping your loan terms unchanged.

One thing to keep in mind is "less is more" when it comes to telling anyone including the Loan officer what you plan to do in terms of living arrangements.
