I think it all depends how accessible the vendor has the relevant paperwork an what land surveys show. I did get my offer within 48 hours of my survey tho 😁😁😁0

My bad HappyMe about the mortgage offer. I remember getting to the valuation stage now and I just remember being told that in regards to my individual circumstances I would receive the mortgage offer subject to valuation.
Just in regards to the solicitors this took quite a while for me. They had issues with sickness and also a couple of minor bits cropped up in the survey. Honestly if you are confident regarding the valuation I'd get them started ASAP0 -
So they didn't budge on the valuation, as I expected.
Fortunately my vendor have agreed to meet me in the middle - it means finding an extra £2.5k on top of my deposit but this will just come out of my emergency fund (well, the entirety of my EF). Bit scary but have to look on the bright side - buying cheaper than expected and less mortgage!0 -

In the hands of the solicitors now.
