I've gave up praying to him and am nw resorting to flirting with the EA so he gets his finger out and starts to earn his commission!!! At the end of the day it only takes one viewer to become a buyer - but need that one viewer! Hoping that the summer brings some more people into the market and let us all move on.
Good luck to all with viewers this weekend.

Hope all is well.

Bushy. The Ex EA!!!
BUSHEY my love, yup I'm still here, currently on my 4th sale!! Fingers crossed it actually exchanges this time. Still waiting for my visa though....

So sorry to hear you're out of a job. I've seen loads of EAs shut down around here. What a shame all your plans are on hold too - now would be the best time to go if your job is ending. Can you get a WHV and go and try and get a job which would sponsor you for a 457? Good plan to get transferred though! Hope that one works.

DON'T PANIC!Can he not exchange when he gets back, or while he is away? We exchanged on our first house whilst away on honeymoon and then on this one we will be at MIL's in Wales when the completion comes through. (Do you mean exchange or complete btw?)

Thanks Caroline, I meant exchange... thankfully. I said just what you've said to him - that he could exchange while he was away, but I think he just wants it sorted quickly. We have agreed that we can have a long gap before completion but I wasn't expecting to exchange for a few weeks yet, so haven't been doing much sorting...

When's yours completing - you said you will be away at your MILs - I presume you are moving in there temporarily.

EEEEEEEEEK! At least you have a month to pack and sort before you go. We are going into rented as we don't have our visa but know we will have to validate by Feb 09 - so we have 7+ months to play with. OH will apply for jobs during this time.

Have you heard anything about your 475? Or do you think they will pull their fingers out and you will get the 175 in time?

Congrats FA at least you will have everything in place so that you can plan knowing that the house sale is done and you are not trying to sell in this cr***y market.

Thanks guys!

I really feel very, very fortunate. I also feel slightly embarassed when so many of you have been struggling with the market for a long time. Fingers crossed that it all goes smoothly. Certainly not handing my notice in until it is signed & sealed.

Thanks Angie - I have been on the market 14 months and should have the visa in a few weeks, (fingers crossed, touch wood, genuflect etc...) So it ties up nicely. Don't think I would recommend trying to sell while going through visa hell too... not good!

Don't be embarrassed SC - you had loads of grief with the visa and a long wait. Some things are sent to try us. I'm just pleased this wasn't one of your trials!
