We are waiting, waiting, waiting for the bank to come through with our bank approval. It looks like what was a while ago agreed to, is now null and void, and we have had to apply for the house loan approval again...only to come up short! We are a week over our "date" of 11 Sept. and the bank is saying that our current house valuation is now not enough. We are risking the house price-rise if this is not finalised soon, (like today!!) and have to pay the house deposit of $12k ourselves...this is the only way we can get the loan, without mortgage insurance (getting that would mean a lengthy hold-up while they re-do the loan with the added amount in it and we haven't the time.)
The thing that annoys me the most is that we asked the bank first how much we could borrow before even looking, that way it allowed us to not look at houses/designs that were out of our budget and to keep upgrades minimal so there was not a lot of the back and forth between builder and bank.
On the plus side we did get our building approval from the council yesterday, haven't seen what "stormwater" system the builder has put in on the application yet, I think they used a soakwell...hope we can just eliminate that, but will have to talk to council first. That is to be done after hand-over anyways by us, so plenty of time to figure what we will do.
I hate this waiting, but what can you do?
