I'm waiting on my santander application too. Santander do it differently from other lenders they give aip then you submit full mortgage application with docs it goes to underwriters to approve and only if it is approved does it get agreed (subject to the survey) which is then carried out. In a way makes sense as you don't waste money on a survey only to get mortgage application declined but they are quite busy and therefore slow. I applied back on 4th march and still waiting to hear if I can go ahead with survey! Nerve wracking!0 -
Kch - That totally makes sense
I Bank with Santander but have always used Nationwide for Mortgage (I dont know why just have).
Good luck with your application hopefully you will get some news soon.0 -
