5 working days from the second app! WOW!

Now what happens can we celebrate?! 

Congrats, are you booking a Level 2 or 3 survey and have you instructed a conveyancer?

Hi @ashthemash we've been living in the property for 15 years, so we had a basic homebuyers given how familiar with the property we are, conveyancer was instructed when we made the offer prior to mortgage app all searches, AML have been completed already.

Created an account to contribute my timeline and details to this after all the unfounded anxiety I experienced applying for a Nationwide Helping Hand product

24th June 2024 - Application Submitted and texts received to confirm product reservation

26th June 2024 - Text confirming that valuation had been instructed for the following day (27th)

27th June 2024 - Text confirming that the valuation had been completed and the report received

1st July 2024 - Reached out to broker (moneybox) for an update, advised that NW had asked for my June payslip to confirm bonus (expected as it was not published when I submitted the application) Provided the document within the hour and was advised that there would be a ~3day lead time for the next update

4th July 2024 - Received a text confirming that an offer had been issued and was in the post. Proceeded to become a human jellyfish as the anxiety was released!

Absolutely no complaints with either Nationwide or Moneybox. 8 working day lead time for the offer on the Nationwide side and my poor Moneybox advisor put up with my incessant questions and worries!
