How long should loan processing take?

Hi everyone, my lender is stressing me out! Home inspection, VA appraisal and termite letters are all finished and we were looking forward to an early close because both buyer and seller agreed. Lender thinks that they won't be done until the last day which is 20 days from now. Is this normal? What may be causing the delays? by rachelhughes90 from Aliso Viejo, California. Jan 9th 2023 Reply
