    The nervous wait to exchange....

    When I went in for the initial mortgage application they went through all of my bank accounts to make sure I had enough money for the house I was buying. They checked my savings accounts, asked me where the money came from etc. They were very thorough.

    The nervous wait to exchange....

    I could, but the bank wouldn't approve the mortgage if I'm £2000 short. They've already approved it at a lower figure but they said it would have to be sent for re-approval if the house price changes.

    The nervous wait to exchange....

    The house I'm trying to buy is just £2000 over budget and the buyer won't budge from the asking price :(

    The nervous wait to exchange....

    First time buyer, no chain, mortgage already approved. The estate agent has told me her daughter has had a word with her and told her to increase the price she was willing to accept :o

    The nervous wait to exchange....

    Well I'm not waiting to exchange but it seemed a suitable thread to complain in. I found a house which is perfect and has everything I'm looking for - two big gardens, a double drive and a double garage. I never would've thought I could get a house as good within my budget. Anyway, the vendor...

    I think you can move the turrets to another settlement by highlighting them and then storing them in the workshop. Then go to the settlement you want to use it at and go to build a turret. Instead of building a new one it'll take out the one you stored away. I'm not sure having purified...

    Thanks. Just looked them up and now I wish I had a large SNES collection to show off.

    The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt

    :eek: What?? How well does this game run on a 960 4gb? I'm playing through on PS4 but it doesn't look or perform terribly well.

    They look a lot tougher than they are. Run up to them, quickly enter VATS, a few well-placed blasts to their exposed belly will sort them out. I had a lot more trouble with Mirelurks because their weak area is so much smaller and less exposed. Everything has a weakness. Assaultrons absolutely...

    Rubbish xmas presents official Thread

    I don't really eat sweets and I got a Malteasers selection box, Thornton's Cappuccino truffles, a huge Hotel Chocolate slab, a box of Walnut Whips, a Terry's Chocolate Orange, a custard cream & white chocolate bar and a bake your own cookies set (just add butter). That was basically all I got :(

    Things that annoy when house hunting...

    Mentioning desirable features such as a garden or garage and not photographing it. On one listing I looked at there weren't many photographs and two of the ones they have were of the wheelie bins!

    The nervous wait to exchange....

    I've been outbid on the house I wanted, I'm really gutted :( we entered a bidding war and I outbid the other party a few times but it went over what I could afford. Still, at least I've cost them some money by pushing up what they were offering. Swines.

    The nervous wait to exchange....

    I've just had an offer accepted on a repossession, 20 days until exchange of contracts. I'm absolutely pooping myself in case someone offers more, which they quite likely will as it's at a very good price in a new development. 20 sleepless nights ahead for me, at least!
