Moving House
Isn't it a nightmare trying to move house in as much as waiting for the day when the phone rings and those magical words come out of your Solicitor's mouth "we've exchanged contracts" or "we will be exchanging contracts in a couple of days". Why does it have to take so long and why is it all so complicated!!!!
In our case there's only two in the chain, our buyer and us, the people we are buying off have already moved out as they are renting in another area so it's not as if there is a long chain! So far it has been two months and two weeks and we
STILL haven't exchanged contracts!!!!! Obviously the hold up is caused by our buyer who is a first time buyer and is having help with the deposit through the government. "Ah" I hear you all say, "that's why there's a hold up". Were just waiting on two little words from the government regarding our buyers mortgage "yes" or "no" as she already has been approved one but has decided to go for a higher one. Why does it all have to take so bloomin' long!!!! It's enough to drive you to drink (except I don't drink
). Were getting really fed up with the wait, you feel like you're in limbo.
I think they should make house buying and selling alot quicker don't you? Have any of you had a quick sailing through house move?
