oops, jumped the gun maybe..
sent p/c's and meds in on 20th May.
We asked the agent how certain they are about us getting our visa. they said 100 percent.
so we got some estate agents in to test the water. long and short they talked us into putting the house on the market!
Guess what its sold :scared: to a couple who have sold to first time buyers, who need to move as soon as poss. :scared: :scared: problem is still aint got our visa.
Gotta try and drag me heels a bit I think and pray the agent is right with their 100% guestimation.
Otherwise we need a three bed rental in Essex..
All the best

Hi
Well done on selling your house, we have had our visa 11 months now and have only just managed to sell!!
Can you go for an early exchange date but a later completion? if these 1st time buyers are in rental then maybe they wont mind waiting for a bit?
You should soon have your visa anyway, at least you can bugger off sharpish rather than waiting about

Have everything crossed for you, BUT I think that is wrong for your agent to say that you will get your visa 100% for sure!! :scared: If it was me I would tread very carefully!! Sure it will all be fine, but you dont know you def going to get a visa until you got the piece of paper in your hand saying you got it!!!
You should hear anytime as it has been over 8 weeks since you sent your Meds & PC's we heard within 3 weeks of sending..... I would accept offer on the house and just play it very carefull!!

At least you have sold your house so when you get your visas you can just go. There are lots of people with visas who then have to wait for their house to sell. And if for some reason you don't get your visa then you can just buy a different house in England and you will be in a very good position to make an offer with no house to sell.

Well I still cant see how anyone can guarantee you got your visa until like I said before it is in your hand or the phone call/email comes to tell you!!
I know our agents had a 99.9% success rate we got a 136 MODL passed TRA we knew we had no medical conditions but they would never of guaranted us we would get our visa!! Just think that is a strong assumption to make!!
