  • Hi all, FTB here.
    Full application submitted with Bank of Ireland on 8/3/16. Valuation fee paid the same day also.

    Just checked and the payment was taken from my bank on 9/3/16 and a full credit reference check carried out the same day.

    Hopefully this is a sign things are progressing already - fingers crossed anyway!

    Good luck to all the newer posters on here!

    We should be hearing from our MA at Lloyds either today or tomorrow whether we are being offered the mortgage or not. So, anxiously awaiting a phonecall! eek.

    Finally a good Monday morning for us too - just had the email that our mortgage has gone to offer :) now we just need our (awful) solicitors to pull their finger out and actually do some work for us! Congrats on your good news also Mizenberg :beer:
  • Valuation being done today, L&C say we should hear about a formal mortgage offer by Weds/Thurs. Our solictor has already been hard at work - there were some inconsistencies in the Property Information Form the seller has to complete so he has already queried these and we have made the payment for the searches to commence

    Can't believe how much paperwork has been generated already and we don't even have a formal offer yet.
    Good luck to all waiting. :j

    And to you!

    I trust our solicitors, so far. We just need our sellers to find somewhere now!!
