    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
    Hi, we had two valuations as some work needed doing after the first one. 
    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. 
    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? X
    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. 
    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 lol

    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? x

    Our final valuation was last Wednesday and we got told yesterday that it had been reviewed and we've now moved to the final underwrite. 
    They said we'd hear more (hopefully an offer) in the next 24-72 hours. 
    They haven't asked for any further information as of yet.

    That's good news that you've got your valuation booked!! 
    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! Lol

    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.
