    Feeling so anxious about my mortgage application with Halifax.

    DIP- 22nd May
    Full application - 30th May
    1st of june - News from MB that no further paperwork required and they have instructed valuation
    Valuation booked for this wednesday (13th June)
    Has anyone ever gone with halifax? How long until the valuation report is in?

    So worried that for some reason we will get rejected....
  • 11/06 Broker sent me a message over the weekend to say offer has been issued, just waiting on the document. Can't believe we're at this point. Just hoping everything goes ok from here...

    08/06 Survey is actually happening today, so much for a couple of weeks! Everything crossed now.
    Small update...


    05/06 Broker contacted us to say Principality are happy to progress on to the valuation. Have upgraded to Homebuyers so may take a couple of weeks, but another positive step forward.
    We can finally, tentatively join this thread. Our previous credit history isn't great but fingers crossed that our broker knows his onions...


    15/03 Initial chat with Natwest, AIP given with soft search.
    30/03 Issues on credit reports shown to Natwest, new AIP given.
    15/04 Contacted broker as did not believe Natwest would accept our full application, they agreed
    16/04 Begin house hunting in earnest
    21/05 Initial offer made, rejected 24/05
    24/05 Second and final offer made
    25/05 Offer accepted
    25/05 Back to broker to discuss options
    31/05 AIP referred with Principality, as expected with previous credit issues declared (not a straight decline, woop!)
    31/05 Progressed to full application with Principality


    Nervously waiting now. Did not expect to be at this point as soon as we are - prepared for another 12 months wait at least.
  • We're applying to Halifax and have our valuation this Wed also. So nervous
