Charmoo said:Everything is with nationwide and the case was escalated on Monday. The sellers are losing out on their home which is why they have signed the missives. It's so hard - we are FTB at 40 years old. Apparently it's all down to processing times. Happy for everyone's that has gone through.0

It is really stressful, the sellers are buying a new build and the builders have given them a deadline or the house is remarketed and sold to someone else. They are not going to sell if they can't get the plot they have put a deposit down for etc. We put the offer in at the end of April.0

Yay for the approvals!
Charmoo I'm so sorry that things are so stressful for you, I hope something is pulled out of the bag for you!
We've had hard searches on our files this week, the valuation is on Monday... I'm hoping that if all is well we might get an answer soon after as it seems like maybe someone is already underwriting it if the hard searches are done? I'm probably wrong. There's no rhyme or reason with this process at all is there?!
Wishing good mortgage dust on you all!Life is too short not to love what you do.2 -

@shellbell63 Congratulations! That's amazing news for you.
Apparently ours has been handed back to the underwriter and it could be up to 5 days. It's been 7 weeks today since we put in the application. Total torture!1
