Nationwide mortgage decline after survey done

Dear All,

I am heartbroken and in kind of depression. After around half year of search of a house our Nationwide mortgage was declined after the survey done.
We have been ok through AIP and everything. We have been  checked by the advisor before the submission but nothing has happened.
We have tried to get the answer and the reason why and there is no answer ( emailed the advisor ) 

I think that could be my job? However the adviser said he was ok with it

    Do you mean after the lender's mortgage report & valuation was done, or after your own survey was carried out?

    @NotThatYoungEagle Sorry to hear that.

    From the title of your post it sounded like the valuation was the issue, but from I can tell you're not sure if it's the property or something to do with the applicant.

    You need to first understand the reason for the decline, hopefully your broker will give you a clear answer and suggest a way forward.

    I have to agree with K_S.

    You need to ask whoever arranged your mortgage for the reason for the decline.

  • We have applied directly so there is no broker. The guy had a look ( someone from Natiowide). and said it was all ok

  • The biggest issue - THERE IS no answer WHY THE MORTGAGE WAS declined! I have sent so many emails now and no answer

    Is it normal practise for the lender not to give the answer why it was declined ?? And not to give any answer at all??!

    Thanks

    No, but we don't deal with the same people and have the means of establishing, sometimes only roughly, the reason for a decline.

    @NotThatYoungEagle I don't know about direct applications, but it's not for intermediary applications. As Kingstreet said above, as a broker it's very rare that we are not able to establish the reason for a decline, either explicitly based on what the lender says or by deducing the reason ourselves.
