Hi Everyone, as the title says we have had an offer on the house. Been up for sale about 4 weeks and first viewer at the weekend put an offer in today. On Friday we lowered the price by £5000 as we had no interest. And the viewer has offered us £3000 less the asking price.
We want to accept the offer considering how the market is but are unsure to do so as we have had no feedback as to how the 457 visa application is going. We know oh agent in Perth submitted our application and the companies at the same time about 3-4 weeks ago but so far he has not heard back. Hubby spoke to him today knowing we were going to get an offer on the house and the agent didn't seem concerned at the four week waiting so far and is sure things are going ok with the application. The firm has sponsored before. Do we need to be worried as it's been 4 weeks since the application went in or is this ok. We had our medicals last Thursday at the request of the agent and there were no hicups with them. Please could anyone put my mind at rest that the four week wait for the application going in is not unusual.

Thanks in advance for the replies.
