Yesterday seems like a blur to me already, but it is one that will stay with me for some time. Firstly, we have some health concerns with eldest, which we are now advised will need a small operation. Whilst we are trying to stay calm, it is so difficult not to worry. I will not go into details on a blog, but it was the worst way to start the day. We then spoke to our solicitors who advised the buyers that they had until midday to exchange or the deal was off. This was designed to give us time to organise a bankers draft for the deposit on the new place which we were signing for at 3.00pm We eventually exchanged at 2.50pm! Whilst we had suffered delays due to the incompetence and ignorance of the buyers solicitor, it transgressed that our buyers did not have the sufficient deposit, which in turn created stress and nightmares for us. A bit of honesty would have reduced what we went through. I was surprised therefore to receive a request from the buyers to gain access to the property BEFORE we complete in order that they can employ a professional cleaning company! We politely declined this request!
Over to the new place later, and will post pics soon. Really excited now
