Guest BRAMBLE Posted June 9, 2008 Share Posted June 9, 2008 Hi all, well we've definitely sold our house. We put our house on the market earlier this year and in the first week the first viewer offerd us the full asking price. (10 K higher than the estate agent had suggested) My mum always used to say "If something appears to be too good to be true then it's maybe because it is" Oh well, on this occasssion it looks like she was wrong! We have waited patient for approx 15 weeks for the buyers (not in a chain) to get a mortgage and today the solicitors have left a message on the answer machine to ask when we can exchange and complete. I feel physically sick and I'm so scared!!!:wideeyed: All reassurance welcome as I've had an up and down day. (I've just come back from the hospital with anterior uveitis. Anyone else got this problem and if so how do you cope with it?) Cheers, Sarah. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Les Les If you are intending to sell your house I would get it on the market ASAP. The prices are only going to fall over the next 3 years so you may be missing your chance to maximise the price you get. You can always move into rental accomodation until you go to Oz. I put mine on the market officially last week giving myself 8 months to find a buyer, I only hope that it gives me enough time! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Pinhead Posted June 10, 2008 Share Posted June 10, 2008 Make sure that your Estate Agent checks that your buyer & as many people in the chain below you have got mortgage approval before you take your house off the market. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
