Barclays Mortgage Question

Hi All,

We have had an AIP from Barclays for a mortgage for a new build home on Monday. We have a flat which we are part exchanging with the House Builder (Taylor Wimpey).

We've had the full application (from our mortgage broker) to fill in and sign, they've requested solicitor details, sort code & account details etc yesterday. So this will all supplied yesterday to them.

They've been out today to the site of the new build house to do a valuation on a similar property, as obviously our proposed house isn't built yet.

What I wondered is if anyone has any experience of the length of time it normally takes from having a valuation done to actually getting an offer? Also, has anyone any idea if it was a straight no for the application if they would even do the valuation at all? Or is the valuation just part of the process before it goes to their underwriters?

Any info/experience anyone can offer would be appreciated. The waiting game is the worst! Thanks!
