We were told that Connells would call us but if we hadn't heard within 24 hours to call them which we did but took a couple of days and phone calls to arrange.afreshstart86 said:
Ah okay, so u just rang Connells direct & got it sorted that way!! I am so fed up of dealing witn & relying on middle men that id rather call myself! Ill give Bluestone a call today & confirm who they are using. Do you know if Bluestone instruct the survey the same day you pay? XPaul181982 said:
Hi, we had two valuations as some work needed doing after the first one.afreshstart86 said:Hi everyone,
so today we finally paid for our Valuation. Has anyone paid for & had a valuation booked recently? If so, how long did it take for them to do the valuation once you had paid? Xx
But both valuations were done 4 working days after we booked it.
Is it being valued by Connells? If so I'd suggest calling them every day to try and book it. They will keep saying it's not on their system yet but keep on at them.
Yes as far as I'm aware they will instruct a valuation as soon as you've paid.
We're now at final underwriter stage, everytime my phone makes a noise I think it's news lol0 -
Can I ask when your final valuation was completed? Just trying to get a gist of how long after the valuation is completed do we receive an offer. Also, have they asked for any further information in this final underwriting stage? xPaul181982 said:

They haven't asked for any further information as of yet.0 -

Yes it is exciting but also nerve wracking! I keep thinking "what if something goes wrong" and things like that lol
The worst part is everything time I get an email I think it's from my mortgage advisor! Lol0 -
Received our verbal mortgage offer this afternoon!!!!! So happy!!!!!!!1

It's the little touches I like with Bluestone, they've sent letters out to customers talking about cost of living, budgeting, where to go for help and saying to contact them if struggling to pay the mortgage as there's options available.Mortgage started 2020, aiming to clear 31/12/2029.2
