    Would lenders really care about "probation" when an employee can be let go in the first two years for any reason anyway?

    Not been on since I posted this...but...after speaking with my original broker, despite his reservations of the bank not lending based on the new job...the lender has actually turned around and said they will still lend to us!


    Our valuation is booked for next week! Fingers crossed all goes well. I start my new job in 2 weeks!

    Lending is one thing.


    The key question in cases like this is when will they release the money?


    Does this fit with when you need it?
