Hey all, looking for advice as another nervous HTB applicant.
I signed a contract for a place last week while my CBA lender was on leave, he got back to me yesterday (Monday) and sent me the loan documents which I’ve signed and setup a shortfall account.
The lender mentioned that it takes 14 days to get HA approval because it’s “the government”. I rung HA today and they told me they haven’t received anything from CommBank yet since an internal team hasn’t processed it.
My finance clause is over in just under a week and I’d love to have HA sorted before then so I can be at ease, anyone have a similar experience or advice on timelines/action?
UPDATE: Not even an hour after posting this I received final approval from HA, just waiting on their conveyancing documents.
