In most cases complaints to a lender are resolved very quickly.

The estate agent will need to know who your solicitors are (ensure that the solicitors are on the lender’s approved list). Telephone RBS or your broker and finish off any appropriate forms. RBS will appoint a valuer who will get in touch with the estate agent or owners to schedule an appointment. Once conducted (assuming no problems) it takes approximately a fortnight to receive the mortgage offer. RBS will issue the offer to you and your lawyers. The legal work will then take it’s course according the nature and complexity of the conveyancing in Wirksworth.
