Cheers. Just need to exchange so that we've got a definate move date. Wont feel real until then. Just as well that the job situation in Perth is good and I don't have to worry about that as well. :)

Spooky! :eek: I have done things like this for other BE members who have had a good outcome. I did it and Lacey got her Case officer! or is it just co-incidence??? :D

Fingers crossed Lou that it all goes through smoothly for you. Congratulations!

Hi Wren
will be off as soon as its done and dusted. Have said that we must exchange within 4 weeks or it goes back on the market and I would hope for 3 or 4 weeks after that to get sorted. Can't plan anything until exchange. Typical, not only will the flights be more expensive around the summer hols, but we'll hit Perth in time for winter. Hows things going with you?

Re: ok...where are all the nurses?
 

:D thanks Lisa. Just need to hold out for a quick exchange. How you feeling?

Re: ok...where are all the nurses?
 

tried to give you some 'hurry up and sign k' but gotta spread it! funny no one else ever tells me to do that!! :D

Re: ok...where are all the nurses?
 

Have you set that criteria - that you want to exchange within 4 weeks or it goes back on the market???

Re: ok...where are all the nurses?
 

Hi Jackie
yes we've insisted on it. The last buyers pulled out a couple of days before we exchanged, which meant that we were then about 8 weeks down the line and had to start again. We've accepted a much lower offer than we originally wanted to ( have had no other offers at all ). The people buying ours have sold to a first time buyer, so our solicitor and estate agent think that 4 weeks is realistic. Also, we can't do anything towards the move ( shipping, rental in Perth etc ) until we've exchanged and got a completion date.
I think that if these people are serious, they will get their fingers out and chase solicitors etc to ensure exchange. If they're not, then at least we will only have wasted 4 weeks. I know there are no problems with the house, as the last buyers had a survey done, and I've also said that the price is absolutely non negotiable, due to us accepting a low offer.
Its so frustrating, as all we want is a reasonable price and a smooth sale. I was really friendly and helpful with the last ( so called ) buyers, but I'm not doing that again. Oh well - fingers crossed :)

Re: ok...where are all the nurses?
 

Good for you Lou. I think when our time comes I will set some timelines too otherwise like you say...people can just string you along for an endless amount of time then just drop out of the sale! :mad:

Good luck with all! I'm sure you will be fine! :D

Thanks Jackie - when are you thinking of going?

Re: ok...where are all the nurses?
 

We're not planning to go until next summer when the children break up from school. We will validate visa in November hopefully for 3 weeks. Really looking forward to that! :D
