sorry to those that are going through the same crap as us with regards buyers and their dealings.

Our buyers were in negotions for a mortgage with an Irish Ban who have now decided that they will not lend to anyone on the mainland leaving them and us in the shit.

They are now appling for a mortgage with a manland bank so we are starting all over again, fotunately they still want the house as to the other couple who did offer on the house but could not sell their flat in time.

So hopefully we will be OK we have to go on validation trip in a couple of weeks so we will look forward to that and try and forget all this business.

Lorna if you see this sorry for all the crap your viewer put you through are you still going on holiday?

kaye x
Stupid bank, they could've told them in the beginning, it sounds like they weren't knowing what they were doing. How long does it usually take for a bank to ok a mortgage? Anyway I see you're looking forward to your validation trip, so good on ya, we validated last October (had to before November 3rd) and - besides the money thing - we had a splendid time looking around, checking out the suburbs, bank, houses, swimming, snorkelling etc. etc.

Thanks FA, good things come to those who wait they say, although IC gave that phrase a whole different meaning with his youtube video


Miranda - sorry hun, you have to keep going with your fingers crossed for a while yet
It's all for a good cause, I'll see my GP about it next week or so, maybe he can untangle my fingers

They came and measured up and took photos etc on Tuesday and said they will send stuff to me to sign it off etc. so thats fast work, lets hope they find me a buyer just as quick.

Also though, on seeing the sign I got a bit of a lump in my throat and feel a bit scared as I love my house, then my neighbour came round saying how she will miss my son and doesnt want to see us go and how she was hoping our Oz plans were just talk.
Made me feel even sadder.
Is it a plane, is it a bird.......NO it is super EA ...........good luck!!! Btw how sweet of your neighbour to say how she will miss your son, he must be a really nice kid

Yes we are still going out to validate end of may trying to look forward to that but the kids where so upset when i told them we had to come back here. All we can do is give them a nice holiday and try not to think to much about the money we cant afford to spend.

Lorna
I know hun, money is tight, but you have no choice, so try to make the best of it and emphasize on the good part of validating, exploring the country, beaches, swimming, nature, wildlife etc. Big hug (((()))))

Morning all.

Well, we had our feedback yesterday. Loved the house and it was down to two houses, mine and another. They went with the other.

Oh well. Let's hope that the house they go for sells before they've sold their house and they'll want mine.

Good luck to everyone this weekend with red hot phones for lots and lots of viewings.

Hi all,

Just popped in to say I think your Ks and prayers are starting to work. Keep them crossed for me.

Janine - what a nightmare for you. Sending you a big hug. (((((()))))) You know that now the other house is off the market, yours should be the next one to go.

Kaye - Another nightmare. :curse: Hope you have a lovely holiday. I know it's not the same but you will be able to get some ground work done and hopefully come back to a completion.

AngieK - Same for you Angie - it's a pile of pants I know, BUT every little bit of research helps. You might get the magic call with an offer while you are away too.

Suart - good luck with the new EA.

Nicky - you have reduced your house so much, it should look great compared to the other one. Fingers crossed for you - I hope this is your turn now. Thinking of you today. I hope you are OK.

Tina - hope the cheeky viewers had a good excuse and they really like your house. You can forgive them a no show if they put in an offer. (Really, really hope they do!!!)

Mark and Joe - hope your viewer gets a buyer!!

Miranda - Still have my fingers crossed for your sale to go ahead!!!

Ic - Hope your new agent can do the biz. It must be your turn soon as well. The vids cheer me up - so thanks for that.

Hello there everyone...

Feeling guilty now after Fly Away's epic post there, supporting everyone

It does look like at least something's happening, even though it might not be exactly what we would want. The important thing to focus on is that at least the market IS moving & it can only be a matter of time & a little luck before you all get lucky

Thinking of you all (& I know there's some horrid situations out there) but keep the faith, your time will come.

Good luck all

Well, still no exchange for us Phoned EA for an update and she said she didn't like phoning buyers solicitor as he is "not a very nice man" FFS:curse: I don't like paying them thousands for virtually nothing but we all have our crosses to bear
Well, I must have sounded annoyed because she phoned back a few mins later with the news that the buyers will be picking up their contracts to sign over the W/E today, and dropping them back on Monday so we will be ready to go then
Will believe it when I see it though
