PLEASE READ BEFORE POSTING: Hello Forumites! In order to help keep the Forum a useful, safe and friendly place for our users, discussions around non-MoneySaving matters are not permitted per the Forum rules. While we understand that mentioning house prices may sometimes be relevant to a user's specific MoneySaving situation, we ask that you please avoid veering into broad, general debates about the market, the economy and politics, as these can unfortunately lead to abusive or hateful behaviour. Threads that are found to have derailed into wider discussions may be removed. Users who repeatedly disregard this may have their Forum account banned. Please also avoid posting personally identifiable information, including links to your own online property listing which may reveal your address. Thank you for your understanding.

When do you see the cash?

I had the funds from my solicitor on completion of the sale. In fact the money hit my bank account a couple of hours before the rest of the capital from the sale which was needed to fund a cheaper purchase made it to our vendor. No excuse for the solicitor not to send it on to you as soon as he gets it.0

Well, if you had not personally collected, presumably it would have been posted. So 2 postal days?Cornucopia wrote: »...
I'm surprised others have had a delay on receiving funds. I've sold without buying a couple of times, and always had funds on the day. The last time, I personally collected a cheque from my Solicitor's office.
And a cheque? So another 5-7 days before you actually got the funds......
Does not sound like " always had funds on the day"!!0 -
I could have had the funds on the day, if I had paid extra for the transfer.
A cheque just suited, as I wasn't sure where the funds were going to go at the point when my Solicitor asked me.0 -
Last week I completed on a Friday (11.30am) and received funds on Monday (2pm).This is a system account and does not represent a real person. To contact the Forum Team email forumteam@moneysavingexpert.com0
