    Property value is removing GE Money who require a minimum valuation of 100k. They ignore defaults under £250. I suspect this was the lender initially selected by L&C.

  • GMS - Is criteria like this able to budge? The property was on the market for 120k so could a valuation hit over 100K ? Or do they only consider price sold?

    They will base lending on the LOWER of the purchase price OR valuation.

    This may not have been the lender they chose but it seems to fit in with a CCJ and has the 100k stipulation.
