We have a start date but no official offer letter - which we were waiting for before we booked the flights - might have to take the risk tho.
We are most likely flying emirates as they are the only airline to fly from newcaslte - otherwise we would need to travel to another uk airport (with 2 under 5s and 8 suitcases )

I know - I am an over grown teenager, as soon as it is the holidays, I'm staying up til 2am and getting up at midday !

We flew with Emirates in March - they were great. We only booked 2 weeks before and it was Easter holidays. So fingers crossed you can get some seats.



She couldn't wait until the weekend as she is that keen They are really nice people too, would rather sell to them Or am I just putting off making the leap to Oz


Even better!!! I think you should sell to the person who seems the most trustworthy.

not sure if this is a good thing or not you are certainly going to be confused as to what is best to do. what happens if you say you are selling to the second ones and they drop out part way through? - you would be really annoyed with yourself for not going with the first one - glad it is not me making the decision

I'm trying!! Just waiting for my sponsorship from SA and thankfully the visa we are applying for is much faster, (4 mths) Figured out a way to get enough cash without selling the house today. So we could be out there as soon as April.

Everything crossed for you!!

Hopefully nothing will show up - if it does offer to get the work done rather than drop the price. It will be cheaper for you this way and if - god forbid, the buyer drops out, you'll have some nice new guarantees which will mean the problem can't happen again.

Everything crossed for you, do you think you have damp/woodworm?

The house had woodworm when i moved in and was treatedbut i no longer can find the guarantee. damp is obvious in an outbuilding attached to the house and i pointed it all out to buyers who were very aware and whilst i saw that part as a negative the guy said he could see past the problem As far as i am aware the rest of the house is ok

I have just got in touch with the company that treated our house for woodworm and they are sending a duplicate certificate. Good luck

Don't think you should have a problem. The timber treatment should have worked - just tell the inspector that you had it done and lost the certificate. He will see any signs of new infestation or rot. Old woodworm holes are quite clearly that - old. Re the damp, as it isn't in the main dwelling you should be OK - especially if the buyer already knows about it.

Fingers crossed for you.
