Melc - What home have you chosen?
Hmmm dont talk to me about banks (and I work in one also) they are now holding proceedings up! MelC dont rely on pre approval as we also had this and kinda means nothing, cause once you sign the contract it all starts with the bank they need to do a Valuation on the tender, then it generally needs to be approved with the banks credit area (bascially decides if the price is right) once credit approve all the actual loan documents which include all the progress pa are produced, they then need signing and then send back for certification to ensure they are all signed correctly, then they will issue letter to commence to the builder....it is a long process that doesnt happen over night!
this is exactly what i wanted to say - preapproval means nothing - really...
They still need to value the house plans and land to see if THEY think its worth the money there lending you.
Other than Kathy, is anyone else building the Lakeview Lodge?
