    So frustrating. Part of me wants to call them myself but then I don’t want to take them away from getting things done. I appreciate they are extremely busy but I have so much riding on this. It’s painful!

  • I’d wait until Thursday and then contact them! I’ve tried to stick to the timeline they’ve given me just so they don’t get shirty as I understand they are busy. It’s just so painful waiting isn’t it???

    I’m waiting for my valuation to be done on Wednesday (hopefully) and then awaiting a mortgage offer. I’m a little nervous about these timelines. Especially with the Bank holiday 
  • Hi, everyone,

    so if you have gone via a broker with leeds, is the queue longer then if you go directly? on their website it states 10 working days for documents to be assed via a underwriter?

    I am hoping it may be shorter as my application went in on 10th July so been waiting a long time! 

    Any advice will be grateful :) 
  • @hollybryan2013 have you sent them your payslip yet? It will be 10 working days from whenever you send that back.

    My application went in 24/07 valuation has been done and they asked for more documents. Broker has told me its 7 working days to look at valuations and then a few days to asses them, 6 days for documents and then 3 days after once the final review is complete to issue an offer. So I think I'm looking at end of next week at best, when ever I've phoned leeds though (which is only once) they normally dont give much away and say I will have an update by end of week, which normally involves more documents and bank statements. Agree with others with having alot riding on this.. what will be will be I guess.
  • My valuation was done last Monday and assessed by the Friday so I think it might vary person to person.
