Alcohol makes you lose control, so it's not a good idea.

I know it's awful, but have a really good blub - really go for it. You'll feel better for it.

Hello Guys,

Need some advice, just about to cry :curse:. Got word late yesterday that down the chain the first time buyer has got 100% mortgage and so we would have to all exchange & Complete on the same day???. When we sold some 9 weeks ago , we said we want some time in between exchange and complete to arrange shippers, flights, rent etc oh and telling the kids school and work.

I dont want to pull out because the market is dead here.
What do We do??? I feel this was going wrong ages ago , buyer been a pain from the start. We are using the money from the sale to get over to Australia and start our new life, I have just lost my nan and this really is done it for me any tips , sorry to butt in on your thread.

I am sure that you will have a lovely life in Australia...

Perhaps in time you can contact the RSCPA in Australia and try to house a homeless dog when you are more settled and give an abused / neglected animal the opportunity to experience the love and warmth you have to give.

Animals become such a big part of your family and it is heartbreaking..

Positive is you know that he is going to be well looked after and loved.

Could you book a holiday rental somewhere local to tide you over for a few weeks after the sale?

Tiggs great news, see you in Adalaide January some time

Sorry guys just had to let you all know.
Somme - nothing we say will help but thinking of you We are leaving our cat behind. He is very nervous and gettin on a bit so like you dont think it would be fair to take him. I have a wonderful home all lined up with a friend of mine but I keep puttin off taking him although i know he is already very unsettled by everything going on in the house He is more human than feline, I watched him being born and i will miss him so much. I guess we all have to take comfort from knowing we are doing what is best for our pets

i think your decision is very brave - you have chosen what you think is best for your dog rather than what you would want to do for yourself. Just remember that he is going to have a wonderful time in his new home and you saved him from all that stress and upset.

now i am worrying that i am doing the right thing in shipping daisy

You know your own pet and whether they would be able to adjust. So I am sure you made the right decision too...

that is what this thread is for!!! Butt in whenever you feel the need!

i would try and hang onto your buyer if you can - the market is not great at the moment and it is getting close to christmas.
is there somewhere that you could stay for a couple of weeks after the house sale went through?
you would have to get the shippers in before hand but at least you could still do all the other things afterwards

I'm a bit confused here. Why does having a 100% mortgage mean having to exchange and complete on the same day? I know it means that the buyer isn't able to put down a deposit - but surely they could put down £100 or something. To be honest, it isn't your problem. Send the message down the line that you have already stated that you nedd 4 weeks (or whatever) between ex and Comp - but that you would be willing to compromise. Sometimes the 100% buyer gets someone to guarantee the contract - ie they sign to say they will pay up the 10% should the buyer pull out. Suggest this to your solicitor too.
