regards and cheers are OK for casual, informal letters.

Until next time is also casual asd informal, but aso sounds a lilttl more literary and intimate. You might say this to your girl-iend.

If you start a letter with Dear Mr X, it suggests it is not an informal or casual letter.

For informal or casual letters, we commonly sayeg Dear Mr Smith
