Mortgage offer but no credit search

Hello,

My partner and I have exchanged contracts on a new build house and we're just waiting for completion now. We have a mortgage offer with Halifax, yet there is no record of any searches being made on my credit report. Is this normal?

Thanks.

    You've looked at all three versions of your credit file?

    Hi DarylBarker

    Interesting you've posted this, it's a pretty identical situation to us. Have checked my report on Experian, Equifax, Clearscore and Noddle, yet still no credit searches and we are near to exchanging?!

    Our mortgage is through Santander and I know they use both Equifax and Experian so a little confused...
