Quick question I was hoping you could help with - How detailed do Natwest look at Bank statements for residential mortgage? My account is showing as being within agreed overdraft for last few months - could this cause an issue?
Many Thanks
Lenders don't necessarily need to review bank statements to make OD related assumptions, they get sufficient data from the credit-bureaus to do that.0 -

It is definately an interesting market - probably the busiest I have ever been but at the same time lenders are sooo slow.
Anyone got a question? Ask away

Hi, my application went in through broker at Coventry building society around 5 weeks ago. My income is complex as I have full time NHS employment and also Ltd company income, combined is around 50k (applying for £180,000 mortgage) we have had bank holiday and lender came back asking for P60 and the accountant certificate which took a couple of weeks to come back. This was sent in on Monday and heard nothing yet.I have a clean credit history with nothing adverse etc.
should I be worried or am I being impatient? The latter being quite likely for me.Many thanks0 -

The more time elapsed since the adverse credit; the lower the deposit required and vice versa. You will get away with adverse being newer, with a bigger deposit.I am a mortgage broker.

We have had our Halifax Resi approved (Finally!)...
The offer is valid until end of Sept..
We aren't part of a chain however the sellers are downsizing and still haven't found anywhere...
Do lenders extend offers if things don't complete by the offer expiry date?0 -

The offer extension policy/process differs from lender to lender. With Halifax, if you haven't completed by 30 Sep, you'll have to pick a new product.I am a Mortgage Adviser - You should note that this site doesn't check my status as a mortgage adviser, so you need to take my word for it.

Moving into rented and travelling for work for 3-5 years.
Moving mortgage to BTL (170k LTV with 230k VAL).
Ideally interest only.
Rental Income would be £850 PCM
Salary would be circa 50k min.
Is this doable?0
