Bah, just been told my seller is unable to move until end of the year due to his new build not being ready, oh well, stamp duty to pay in full now and need to move in with mother for a few months, was expecting to be told it had fallen through though so it could have been worse
It showed up for us before the solicitors or agents rang on completion day!
Part of my offer was that I was in no hurry to move so the seller could have less pressure, while I'd have liked to get in before the Sept deadline it was only ever a want so I'll suck it up, he'll be taking a hit as well as he'll have to pay it on his new place, I'm not going to quibble over a few £k and risk him pulling the sale on me, I was fully aware it might happen so no onus on him whatsoever.
Weird, my mrs hasn't had anything asking her to sign up other than the automated text messages/emails when they send application dates through. I'll give them a call at some point.
I never got anything to sign up to NW actually, I was going to investigate that later. My girlfriend was the one with the current account and our joint credit card. But yeah, the mortgage appeared very quickly.
the gall of some people when they know the importance of today. Is exchange/complete tomorrow still an option?
bit close to the line, solicitors close at 4:30pm!
