  • I just had a little update from the Broker, she said Leeds said they don’t anticipate to finish assessing my case until the 26th August due to the 10 working days turnaround at the moment (I sent the documents back on this pat Monday so this would be 10 working days exactly). But she also said the valuation had come back as expected :) I feel much better now as I’m working to an actual date rather than just being in limbo.

    It’s still such a long time. I could be looking at September!😩
    First time buyer- Shared ownership- 13/7 DIP Leeds- soft search- 20/7 told we got house-21/7 instructed solicitor- 27/7 sales memo and full application- 30/7 hard search- 3/8 mortgage declaration sent- 6/8 told valuation complete
    13/08 questions from underwriters 
    17/08 letter to say initial assessment completed.
    20/8 Broker says it will be another week until more communication from Leeds.
    27/08 Mortgage approved 
  • I know, it would have been four and a half weeks by the time it’s assessed for me! My broker did say it might be quicker but leeds official answer was that it wouldn’t be by the end of business on 26th August.

    I got an email from my MA on Saturday telling us our offer had been issued - absolutely buzzing! Hopefully you'll all be hearing soon too, they must be making decent progress through the list of underwriting now!
