Another update and a question

I posted in a thread elsewhere about the Govt possibly taking action to prevent gazumping ...
On the assumption that the seller took three weeks to simply accept the offer, that's another thing that needs to be changed in the Govt's review.
Make an offer in Scotland (in writing), and it's standard practice for the offer to have a limit date - accept within the time limit, or the offer is assumed to have been withdrawn. Seller doesn't have the option to drag things out to this extent.
A wait of three weeks for simple acceptance of an offer just wouldn't happen in Scotland.
But the offer is not necessarily withdrawn.
We had an offer on our house with acceptance by 12 noon the next day. No way, we had three other viewers and had no intention of accepting this offer.
The sale went to a closing date two days later and the first offer was still there but was not the offer we accepted.0 -
Congratulations!! We're waiting to get in to ours (should be next week all being well!!) and my partner did a plan of the house on the computer, I think he just Google 3d house plan and found a website. Best of luck!0
