FTB - Mortgage re-offer - HELP?

Morning,

I had my offer from Woolwich 3 weeks ago for the HTB scheme. I am married and the house and mortgage is going to be in my sole name. My solicitor has come back and said they will have to re-offer due to my wife being an adult occupier.

Fine, but does this mean they will have to go through the whole process again? new payslips etc??

    Don't panic.

    They are only adding your wifes details as an occupier to the terms of the offer.

    Unless of course any of the deposit is coming from your Wife, then this may not be as straight forward..

  • thanks... just had a chat with the broker.

    No all the deposit is from the sale of my current property which is in my name.

    Then do not worry, broker should have done this first time but it will not impact hugely on timescales.

    Good luck
