Definitely chase. It won’t do any harm!prozac321 said:
Totally unacceptable for the estate agent to pressure you like that. They all know that the banks are taking longer to process applications.85c said:When you submit new paperwork (se) how long does it usually take befor you have an update, we are 6 weeks in today. Estate agent keeps ringing being pretty horrible that we don’t have mortgage yet. Although we are still waiting on a search on the house we are buying so couldn’t exchange anyway. Was feeling ok but now anxiety levels through the roof thanks to EA.
For anyone who has had their mortgage sorted, how long is the wait from when the underwriter starts looking at the case to receiving an offer? ( if they do not ask more questions). I'm in the queue for the underwriters to have a look on the 12th ( so yday and today according to the status page) but not sure if i should chase my broker when it hits the 13th or wait longer0 -

We have put the application in today, we've had an update saying it's been passed on to underwriting, the valuation has also been arranged for Monday 23rd November. It's a single application, employed, shared ownership 85ltv.22/09 - application submitted with Leeds BS, long story short, on the 9/11 we've been told that Leeds is reducing the amount they're willing to lend by nearly £20k (turns out our broker FORGOT to declare our child on the application)
10/11 - found another mortgage advisor
11/11 - AIP with Santander (single applicant, shared ownership, 85LTV)
12/11 - all documents sent
13/11 - application with Santander submitted and passed to underwriting. Valuation booked for 23/11
19/11 - mortgage agreed, subject to a satisfactory valuation
23/11 - mortgage offer issued
19/12 - completed0 -
We just got our mortgage offer email. Our timeline was:
01/10 Applied
07/10 Sent to underwriters
We then had a few queries the last two weeks which we/our mortgage broker responded to (they asked for an additional payslip and also some queries on bank statement)
13/11 Offer accepted
We are both employed.2 -

I just asked our MB and they’ve said that ours was send to the UW on the 19/10. Hopefully we will hear something by the end of the month!fastbs said:
I’m not too sure! MB hasn’t said but he seems to think that all we are waiting for is the valuation to get assessed which too place on the 23rd. So I am guessing before this sometime!Meh123 said:
You must be really close to the front of the queue now! They may even be dealing with it, what date did you join the UW queue?fastbs said:We are on - working - day 25 today (minus day of application) and we have heard nothing so far apart from when valuation took place!1 -
Ours was sent on the 20/10. We applied on the 13th..7 days before. I assume you applied on the 12th??fastbs said:

Yeah that’s right! Valuation was instructed 21st and carried out on 23rd... I hope so. Yours will be very similar then!mowgliisaG said:
