    And I don't know why other people come on this forum ask and questions then throw their toys out of the pram and have tantrums when they don't get the answer they're looking for.

    As you've been told once already, you asked for some perspective, and you got it. If you don't like being told you're being impatient, don't ask if you're being impatient.

    Anyway, good luck with the house purchase. It sounds like you'll need it.

    There is not a single point in this enitre thread where I've objected to anyone calling me impatient.

    What I object to and have objected to from the start is people making unnecessary hyperbolic distortions of my responses thereby positioning me as being irrational and emotionally unstable by suggesting I'm 'having a heart attack', 'throwing a tantrum', 'throwing my toys out of the pram' etc etc. All because I have some concerns and dared ask for some advice on a forum. It's really unnecessary and serves as an obstacle to engaging in a constructive discussion.

    There have been lots of helpful responses in this thread which I appreciate. However you can make a point without being rude especially when I have done nothing to slight you or anyone else, politness cost nothing. You've shared your piece but I won't be responding to you any further as it's just derailing from the topic.

    And thanks for the good luck. I can't think of anyone engaging in the house buying/selling process who doesn't need it.

    Possibly, it's still nice that they've been helpful to deal with so far.
