Bank Documents Submitted

Went to the bank today to submit the documents for them to give unconditional approval. I would expect them to give us an answer next week. Second last day before our bank manager retires so it was good to see him as we have dealt with him for seven years now. Just owe him the council approved plans and builders insurance certificate. He also confirmed that the balance of the deposit can be the first draw down on the loan - happy with that.

Hopefully the valuation comes back more than what we had estimated otherwise we may need to rethink things.....
