The $970k to $1.1mm would be what that particular lender believes your

The mortgage co isn't going do an actual appraisal for all of the
thousands of letters they send out to a block of FICO scores, but
certainly will before they lend any money.

This was one of those "internet offers" and I have no idea if there was
any criteria whatsoever for the spam.

There isn't; they're just trying to scam some money from you to secure a
mortgage application that you never even filled out.

I get those "offers" all the time, and I don't even own anything worth
mortgaging! They're almost as bad as the Nigerian scammers.
