Papers will be signed (if everything is ok) next week Friday, then there is a 3 days period in which the buyer can withdraw.

That is infuriating, how are you going to sell if they don't advertise.Will keep fingers crossed for your viewer coming through.

New EA just rang and said somebody interested. Oh please please please.

I am really sad today as Ria is leaving tomorrow and probably won't see her for about a year. Taking her to the airport at 5pm tomorrow.

I would take the offer too Thorpes... it seems like we are all stuck in this nasty predicament.

However, I need you all to pray for me this week. I need all the luck I can get - and then some!

Take care

Keeping everything crossed for you, lets hope you get some good news soon - know exactly how you feel.

Sammyt, Thanks for the advice. This buyer is not in a chain so I think we will accept. We are just waiting for EA to get back to us.:curse:

FlyAway, My prayers and thoughts are with you.

Welshranger, Thanks for the info on finances. Luckily we can move in with MIL rent free so we should be able to save as much as we can. We are only March 08 applicants so we have a bit of a wait yet.

Tum, Congratulations. It is a scary feeling though.
