You are right guys will message him now!!

We have gone with a David Wilson - our sales lady seems pretty good and on the ball but who knows what after sales will be like! We were lucky that we got to pick quite a few fixtures and fittings and got a good deal as it was last property on development to be sold!!

Who have you gone with?

It is such a waiting game!! We are living in my parents house (not with them as they live abroad) but after nearly seven years of never owning our own home and the last four years in this house, it is now hopefully our time to own our own home!!!

I keep checking my phone, emails and bank statements to see if valuation fee has been taken but nothing!! No date for valuation either!!

Do you think it is cheeky to message or email our IFA to see if he has heard anything?

No I don't think it's cheeky I would anyway, but I'm impatient. My fee has come out of the bank account but no date for valuation.:)

We've brought one from Miller homes, I used to have a David Wilson home, very good builder.:)

We've gone with Halifax through the IFA

Just heard back from IFA and he said waiting for docs to be assessed & will let me know as soon as he hears anything. I will have no hair left by the end of this - the suspense is awful!!!

Not cheeky at all. That's what you pay them for. I'd be phoning every day!

Communication is proving the most difficult thing for us. We're using London and Country as our broker, and whilst they seem to get the job done in the background, getting hold of our Advisor and Case Manager is pretty much impossible - not once has anybody answered our phone calls. Terrible customer service!
