Woohoo! We have just exchanged on our first property! Very excited.
Only downside, is we can't complete for another 7 weeks as vendors are moving into rented and havn't found somewhere.
Also, a little worried about building insurance - our solicitor is going to confirm some kind of agreement that means the vendors don't cancel their own building insurance for a couple of weeks because of the long time until completion - we had initially asked to complete in two weeks. So hopefully this will be ok....

Congratulations! Exchange is a huge step forward but don't go cracking open the champagne yet - the weeks between exchange and completion where the worst and most nervous part of the whole process as you are in limbo unable to make any firm plans about moving.
Fingers crossed.0
