Thanks for the replies.
We know it is a good offer as we have only been here two years and if we sell at the offer price will have still made £25,000 profit in two years. My concern is that we agree to sell and the 457 visa doesn't come. I think it's worrying me as we haven't heard anything back yet but I don't suppose 4 weeks is that long at all. It feels a lot longer though. Also if we didn't accept and then visa comes through then have to wait to sell the house and it takes us to long then the company may decide to pull the visa cause we can't get there.
I think really I am just looking for reasurance that the 4 weeks waiting to hear anything is not unreasonable. At least meds for kids and x-rays for me and oh have been done and the doc thinks there will be no problem with them.
Please anyone who has or is applying for a 457 please could you let me know how long it took before you heard anything. I think the agent will hear before us as he put the applications in all together.
Should he hear that the application is approved and then be told that the visa is granted or will he just get told when the visa is granted.
Please any reasurance will be a great help.

Thanks to all and good luck to all other visa aplicants.
