I had a mortgage agreed in principle with RBS. Ladywell conveyancing lawyers were selected. What is the average time that one could expect to receive a mortgage offer from RBS?

There is no definitive answer here. Have RBS completed the survey? Have you informed RBS as to your lawyers' details and checked that your lawyers are on the RBS conveyancing panel? Sometimes it can take as long as six weeks for a mortgage offer to be issued.
