SJC asked:
We are currently going through a remortgage, first time we have done this since we bought our house. We have had everything accepted, survey completed etc. The solicitors have a copy of our buildings and contetnts insurance and I gave them the account details for our existing mortgage on Friday. How much longer will it roughly take before our current mortgage is cleard and we have the new mortgage and funds? Eager to start extending the bathroom! We are in Scotland, don’t know if that makes a difference.

Depends on with whom you are working, but I would say within two weeks.

In the States, it takes a few weeks, mostly for the various paper pushers to do their thing. I should expect that Scotland would be little different. Inquire of your new lender for an estimate.
