    Just had a update we have been approved 💖💖🏡🏡🏡
    Congratulations

    I didn’t think they made an offer until the valuation had been Completed?

    It’s a verbal offer until valuation is done. They don’t really issue a valuation unless they are happy they will offer the mortgage so once u are though the underwriters it’s good to go that’s why we didn’t issue our valuation b4 the underwriters stage
