Nationwide remortgage?

Has anyone done a Nationwide remortgage recently? If so how long did it take and what type of valuation was involved? My broker seems to think it will be a drive-by valuation.
Feeling very nervous!

I would say an inspection of the property.0

I don't really understand drive by valuations especially as it's a flat. I would have thought they needed to come in to see the size of the flat to estimate the value. Will wait for a call to organise valuation then!0

Submitted an application on Monday. It's only 19% LTV.
An indexed valuation was done and the offer was issued on Tuesday.I am a mortgage broker.

Wow that was quick. Our LTV is about 80% so think it will take a bit longer!0

80% LTV sounds a lot for a drive by - my guess is they will call to book an appointment.
Lenders use 3 methods to value properties on re-mortgage:
Visit - most accurate, costs them most
Drive by - not worried about the property condition as value is well clear or mortgage level, quick external inspection in case of anything major - costs them less
Desktop - computer says yes - cost them very littleI am a Mortgage Broker

Had a valuation by the the Nationwide - cannot say more than check the report that it is factually correct!
