Application with Nationwide to port existing borrowing
AIP 11/11
Full Application 13/11
Valuation booked for 20/11
With this and an exam to sit in under two weeks, I feel like my stress/panic levels are through the roof!
Just an update on our application. Mortgage valuation was done yesterday (20th), email received from Nationwide at 17.08 confirming they had the report and at 17.09 another email confirming our mortgage offer had been issued!! This is the second time we've obtained a mortgage with Nationwide and they were this efficient both times.
Now we can actually get excited about moving! :j0 -

I was divorced 8years ago and it was a messy divorce which resulted in my house being Repossessed. But with the sale of the house and a few years to pay back the remaining balance I cleared the debt. Now fast forward 8 years and a good credit score with Equifax I decided to try for another mortgage with my new partner now Wife. We put our house on the market and had a buyer who’s offer we accepted. So we put an offer in for a property which was also accepted. This is were it got complex, I had an AIP for £165000 so with £20k deposit from the sale of my partners house we had an offer accepted on a property for £185k. I was straight up with the bank went through everything with them about my past, they said it was ok as it was 8years ago and you now have a good clean credit file from showing them my Equifax file. But they said it passes it passes if it doesn’t it doesn’t.
Low and behold the credit score search came back good and everything was passed with not even a warning or anything on the screen.It’s now gone to the next stage the underwriters and valuation.
Has anyone had it passed by the credit search then turned down by the underwriter as we are panicking a bit as we are waiting for the official offer now but paid for land searched and valuation.
The banks mortgage adviser did say at first because of your repossessed property they may not be able to do the application but her manager said it shouldn’t be a problem now it’s been well over 8 years since the repossessed house.
So AIP accepted 28/10/19
Mortgage application passed with Credit search 14/11/19
Waiting for Official Offer now.
