Bad luck Biggy. Be philosophical - maybe it's all happening for a reason and everything will turn out better blah blah blah. This is what I've had to do since our plans also went t@ts up!

You'll be thanking them if the flight you originally booked crashes on the way to Oz. Just another way to think about it ?!?! I'll shut up now.

I know how you feel! Sorry to hear it..

Our buyers pulled out on the day the furniture went. Luckily for us it was too late to do anything so we just kept our fingers crossed and hoped that we could pull a new buyer!

Glad that we did, the house stood empty for a few months which hurt whilst we had no money coming in but in the long run it worked out well. It cost us less than cancelling the flights and getting cold feet. The new buyers was somebody that wanted it ages ago but wouldn't believe that we had another buyer, cost them 4k extra and we threw in a boiler that was knackered......

Ya never know - by the time you eventually sell the £ might be worth $3.50!

S**T. Its difficult to know what to say ...Saying 'I'm sorry for you' doesn't really cut it!?

What has the estate agent said?? They may have suitable buyers .... just a thought ....

I think if you believe in fate you'll find it easier to deal with.

I know, I know. Pretty impressed myself. Must be those psychic powers of mine.

I am looking deep into my crystal ball....I see a visa acceptances all round, successful house sales, a dollar exchange rate of at least $3.00 and a general sense of well-being for all those on this site...

Hi Biggy
Sorry to hear your news, but don't panic the way the market is just now you will soon have another buyer...I would'nt cancel the flights just yet, can you not still go while house is up for sale and muddle through till the dosh arrives?? Are the idiots who have pulled out of the sale not liable for some sort of fees for re advertising etc??
Get the house in every property paper you can...go for a fixed price = quicker sale. I know everything happens for a reason and maybe your new buyers will offer more!!
Let us know how you get on, most importantly get your estate agent working for your money!!!
