  • What's your role in this? Didn't you check or visit the property.? If you don't accept your role in this, you will make the same mistakes again and again.

    This happens quite a lot, and I find it quite odd. OP asks a question then goes away and doesn't come back.

    Gone back under the bridge.

    Doesn't surprise me at all given the mocking nature of most of the replies on here.
    Changing the world, one sarcastic comment at a time.

    Perhaps you could give the OP a positive, helpful reply that helps them get the auction annulled, which is clearly the result they were looking for?

    That's exactly the sort of thing were talking about.

    The OP comes here in desperation and gets a load of mocking, basically some posters laughing at his misfortune.

    I appreciate more care should have been taken etc etc but stop giving people such a hard time.

    Just because 3/4 of you are at home watching 'Homes under the hammer' thus knowing everything about buying at auction.

    The OP's grammar is a little poor so probably not British either.

    The OP's best bet is to try and obtain the mortgage by the middle of March or possibly a bridging loan.Unfortunately we don't have his full circumstances.

    Annulled on what grounds? The OP only has themselves to blame. Making mistakes is the way to learn.

    I believe Thrugelmir was being sarcastic.

    No sarcasm. No judgement. Just facts.

    I assume thats why it was such a good price? very little recourse you have. really should have visited it.
