    Bit of a pointless question. It is not the time the funds are transferred that will be the issue, as when the solicitor decides to complete the transaction.

    Im just worrying the lender may pull out last minute. So if king street is correct (9.26am haha), as from 9.27am i will start feeling a little hopeful.

    If they have agreed to release the funds I very very much doubt they're going to pull out. It's not worth worrying about. They would have carried out their final checks before agreeing to release the funds.
  • I feel better. Thanks lee

    I was just messing about, as I hope you guessed.

    Normally, lenders transfer all the funds overnight, so the solicitor comes into work in the morning, signs into their banking and finds the fund ready and waiting.

    If you are first in the chain, our funds will be sent to the vendor's solicitor first. If you are later, the chain has to start with the FTB or non-seller and work its way up.
