We've only gone and done it too!!! Completed!!! Yeahhhh!!!!!!![Sunglasses](https://britishexpats.com/forum/images/smilies/sunglasses.gif)
The trick was to use thumbscrews! After being faffed about for weeks and weeks we said (and backed it up by having new contract written and ready) that if completion did not happen on 21st Sept with the ££££ going into our bank account then the price of the house would go up by £10k non-negotiable. If buyer didnt like that then we would take house off the market and rent it out. That would have screwed everyone (including us, but i didnt tell them that!!!). Result, we have the dosh and the house is no longer owned by us.
Oooo oooo oooo the funky gibon. Ok, gonna start wingeing about the exchange rate now lol!
Fingers still crossed for all you guys and i'll pop back to this thread every now and then![Big Grin](https://britishexpats.com/forum/images/smilies/biggrin.gif)
Petandsue - congratulation to you guys as well!![Thumbs Up](https://britishexpats.com/forum/images/smilies/thumbsup.gif)

Good luck, tony!
Can I join this thread and have a whinge as well?
Our house sale has just fallen through 2nd time
Buyer no 1 was a couple who split up four days before we were due to exchange.
Buyer no 2 is a builder. Neither he nor his lawer have been contactable for the last week. Today was contract exchange day - but nothing happened. We reckon he had an offer on another property and was just stringing us along (2nd choice). :curse:

Well my two viewings on Tuesday went really well - so I thought - the guy was bowled over with the house and had discussed where to put his sofa etc, went ot look at our new bathroom 3 times
and said he would contact EA straight away.........2 days later the agent is still chasing him for feedback
.....apparently loved the house BUT went for a drive after and didnt like the area
no suprise there it is a complete shi7hole but why did he have to turn rigt at bottom of road not left:curse:
ANYHOW we have not 1, not 2 BUT 3 viewings tomorrow.
wish us luck.
