Hi

Does anyone have any experience with Mansfield? 

Application was submitted two weeks ago and still with underwriter - just wondering if people can share experiences with timescales?

    I do not use them often, but the last case I sent them (around March time), was quite an easy case to send them and there were a lot of issues to overcome. 

    I think because affordability was quite good they made it a bit easier (thats my thinking anyway as I was expecting a bit more pushback from the underwriter). 

    They were not the quickest but it was less than 2 weeks from submission to hearing back.
