In 2013, Alaska had its 10th-warmest year in their 95-year period of record. This included their second warmest summer and record warmest October, said weather.com senior meteorologist Jon Erdman. However, Alaska enjoying warmer winter temperatures than the Lower 48 isn't as strange as it may seem, Erdman added.
Congrats! So how long did it take from the time you went into underwriting to approval? We were also just approved in the lats couple days, it took 3 weeks from the time we submitted the paperwork they requested to the time we got the final approval.
Once a loan officer has a completed loan file, income documents and a credit report, the application will be submitted to a VA underwriter for processing. Underwriters can take as long as 14 days to render a decision on underwriting a loan for individuals with a solid credit background. Those with credit problems can wait as long as 30 days for a decision. Once the file has been processed, the appraisal for the property you wish to purchase will be ordered. The appraisal can take as long as 10 days to be returned to the lender. Should there be any issues with the appraisal, you have some options.
