Hi how long does it take to get a mortgage through? This is turning into a long running saga
We were all set to exchange contracts the beginning of December then we found out the people at the bottom of our chain were applying for a mortgage instead of using family money, as we'd been lead to understand. The survey was mid December. - it was a short survey for valuation purposes. We assumed they'd hear either before xmas or after new year, as yet no one in the chain knows. All we know is that their estate told our buyers that they have it in principle and should hear in 3 - 5 working days - by Monday at the latest. Our estate agent has been liaising with their estate and a big problem is poor communication - they say the agent is in a meeting and don't return calls.
I'm beginning to wonder if these people have got a mortgage
I asked their ea yesterday if there is a problem and was told there isn't and that it is definitely coming through, but why whenever our estate agent contacts their ea for an update do they not return her calls? Our ea has just rang to say they still haven't returned her calls.
