    That's brilliant I am so happy for you !! We have been contacted today to propose exchange on the 22nd (Friday) and complete a week later on the 29th. Just getting slightly nervous that that isn't enough time to get the deposit sent from the bank 🤷 This house buying is turning me grey 😂

    Hi, we've just applied with nationwide, what's the process of the mortgage,  weve had a text saying a valuation has been booked for today, what's after this?

    Thanks

    We applied in march, got a mortage  offer a week after the valuation, notified by text and email and hard copy in the post a few days later.

    Is the underwriting done before the valuation?
