ours? don't ask ...
well, the buyer apparently has paid for all the searches and his mortgage (which went through our common EA) has been approved - we are just waiting for a surveyor to come around. EA says there is a big backlog with them - it's been 15 days!!!!!!!
It just doesn't end with the selling does it. You then have more stress hoping it goes through OK. Fingers crossed for you.

This is what I don't get, how can there be a backlog with surveyors? Surely they are just sitting around waiting for jobs as there is supposed to be nothing happening in the housing market! Our buyers survey has just been booked after 5 weeks and our estate agent claimed the same!

Good luck with it. Hopefully there will be an end to the stress for all of us soon!

Not heard anything yet.

Morning Nicky,

Valuer been and gone, just as I thought.:curse: We can't take the stuff with us - it's too big and too fragile, so it'll have to go to auction to see what happens.

I know what you mean about cleaning - we had 4 viewings in 8 days last week and I'm knackered yet the house looks no cleaner than before I started. Let's hope it pays off for us both!

Glad to hear you are feeling a bit better. I know what you mean about why are we doing it too. All this work and heartache. let's hope it's worth it.

I've got everything crossed for you too.

Just praying it is good news.....

Blinkin heck, what a nightmare. Our EA told us that it is now standard to wait 8 weeks for completion not 4 due to the banks being slow to process applications. Maybe the bank haven't appointed a surveyor yet??? Fingers and toes crossed for you to hear from them soon.

I'm sure it's the banks trying to hold onto their money for longer.:curse: Glad to hear your surveyor is at least booked. Ask him / her what the delay was - I bet you'll hear a whole new story.

Here's to an end to the stress for everyone.
