Errr.. when you say "sold" is that exchanged, completed or just under offer?

Even with no chain things can still go pear shaped - been there, done that.The end of March is just a blink away

Re: Sold!
We have a 10K bond, as a security so no gazzumping, pulling out, etc... quite a detailed contract that has been drawn up by our solicitors so we are 90% confident that we will exchange/complete ok in around 6 weeks

Re: Sold!
Hi Selina,
The bond is paid to our solicitor to hold but is refundable on exchange.
Basically it gives us a bit of security for the sale to go thru without any problems
