So our first offer our address was formatted
Hunters lodge
9 Oakwood Avenue
And the actual address is
9 Hunters Lodge
Oakwood Ave
There is a 9 Oakwood which is a house at the bottom of the street.
There were 11 houses built on the site of Hunters Lodge (an Old Hotel) which was on Oakwood Ave... which is why it seems to have 2 street names as it were.
The developer names all 11 houses the number and Hunters Lodge almost like a house name.
I believe when they have credit checked they checked me against 9 Oakwood Ave which is half a mile down the road xNATIONWIDE FTB -

Did you need to go with Nationwide? It sounds like they may be taking the longest at the moment?0 -

Hi All, I just thought I'd join in, if that's okay?
I've just applied for a mortgage with my partner. Slightly unusual circumstances, in that there is no mortgage on the property at the moment, but we're hoping to buy my ex-husband out of his share. I've been here since we separated, because we agreed that I could live here until youngest started high school, and now she's there, so I'd either need to sell and buy with my partner, or buy ex's share of this one, which is what we decided to do. Ex has agreed to a price, and I'm hoping that as it's only for 37.5% of the property value, we'll be fine.
We had an AIP from Nationwide on 23/10, and our MA submitted the application on 5/11 with a text from them to say they'd received it on the same day. We received a text on 6/11 to say that the valuation had been booked for the 9/11, but their surveyor phoned on that day to arrange to come out and do a physical survey for the day after. Unfortunately, my eldest daughter had been in close contact with a teacher who has been diagnosed with Covid, so she's self-isolating (no symptoms thankfully) and understandably the surveyors have postponed until she's out of isolation on the 19th. We sent all paperwork (three months bank statements, payslips, ID etc) to the MA last week, and when I checked Clear Score this morning, Nationwide had done a hard search on me on 14/11. I'm hoping that that's a good sign, and that providing the valuation is okay, we'll be good to go!0 -

Our physical valuation is booked for 18/11.
Just wondering how long people have waited after the valuation to receive a decision as to whether the valuation was ok or not?0
