Skipton mortgage application paused at valuers

Hi all,

Applied with Skipton 7/4/22. Valuation happened on 14/4/22 and the valuers requested the CML on 16/4/22 and I haven’t heard anything since. Skipton keep saying they’re waiting to hear from the Valuers (Connells) and aren’t giving me any time frame to wait by.

For context we are buying a New Build at 95% ltv, incentives were not cash just flooring so shouldn’t push us into the next ltv.

I’m at a loss of how long I should wait, should I persue Connell’s personally?

    @lorrenrm Has the builder sent the valuer the requested CML form? Connells might just be waiting for that.

    @lorrenrm In that case it would be best to get your broker to chase Skipton/Connells and find out what exactly is pending. If you don't have a broker then try contacting Skipton/Connells yourself, they should be fine to tell you what the delay is due to.
