Yours has been pretty quick aswel hasn't it, there's people from August still waiting and we're September applicantsMSN2220 said:
The whole process is confusing, everyone seems to be going through different stages. Apparently if LBS don’t need anymore documents next week, it will go straight to verbal offer. 🤷♀️becky8690 said:
Think my initial assessment was done on the 15th September, still waiting for underwriter thoughMSN2220 said:
I think there has been a further delay for all applications. Our MB spoke to them yesterday. LBS said our initial assessment should be completed by 6th Oct.becky8690 said:its been 15 working days since my MB submitted my application and he hasnt mentioned if its gone to the underwriter yet0 -
It’s took 5 weeks for everyone who posted on here to get a offer. Every day that timeline is different so I don’t know why people worry about it too much.becky8690 said:

I think in a nutshell most cases are sorted between 5-7 weeks. If you're the earlier of those that's great and you have to be unlucky to get the other side.sofsar said:

Normally other lenders do physical valuations and that takes 2/3 weeks in total.I’m sure you will get the offer as they haven’t asked you anything atm but would have done by now0 -
