Hi guys,
We're having all sorts of headaches with our finance drawdown for our PPOR. We all told by the bank that they cannot release funds without "council approved plans". Our broker tells us that the bank has long since been given the council approved plans. Bank first said that plans were missing job number and council approved stamp on plans. Has since acknowledged that they have job number but still wants council approved stamp. Our broker said that council stopped stamping plans at least 6 months ago, and that what is really needed is a form BA4 with accompanying plans stamped by certifying surveyor. This is what we have and this is what has been lodged. However Bank told my husband on Friday that without council stamp they may require us to get an engineer to certify plans. Our broker is utterly frustrated and says Bank personnel not up to speed with current process.
Anyone have any thoughts/experience with this???
Thanks very much,
Maggie.
