Well I have spent the day starting to pack. So grateful to my mum for coming around and helping me as we’ve spent hours and have hardly made a dent! Whilst we aren’t sure what’s happening with our buyers buyer and our vendors solicitor is still AWOL I thought it might help to do something which is in my control. It was actually quite therapeutic going through cupboards and finding things which brought back happy memories 😃. Hopefully we will get some sort of update before the weekend 🤞x

Fingers crossed u hear soon, I haven’t even thought of packing yet as just don’t know what to expect next, I have been trying to keep myself busy by cooking and making different cakes 🎂 but now as I’m sitting down I just can’t get the house out of my head 🤯 another day tomorrow hopefully we will all have some nice news 

Yep 👍 tomorrow is a new day and hopefully a much more positive one too! Just had an email to say the vendors solicitor is on holiday and that’s why there is no progress so the EA is going to push the team to pick up the outstanding enquiries in their absence (solicitors are part of the same Group as the EA) - so maybe a small glimmer of hope 🤞. So excited for you now probate has come through, the end should definitely be in sight now 😀 x

At least u now know why it’s been quiet, sounds promising for u 🤞🤞 I can’t believe probate have been granted lol just be glad when it’s in the hands of sellers solicitor then hopefully can move forward, I just want some sort of date so I know when to start packing etc as I don’t want to start now incase something goes wrong

Vendors's EA gave me an update. All of our searches are back, just waiting on our enquiries to be answered. EA has said they'll chase and has said vendor is very flexible on exchange & completion. Hopefully get a date soon.

Fighting to try and get an exchange date now… ASAP otherwise we will be paying 2 mo the extra on rent. We have a completion date and they said we would exchange this week but we haven’t been notified as to when and no one seems to know! 🤦🏼‍♀️

Our EA has been a god send in chasing enquiries responses (same can’t be said for our vendors EA). You’re really lucky with your vendor and sounds promising for getting a date which really works for you 🤞x

Hello everyone.

I have been off for a week as Im not well, But my progress is we have paid the deposit, signed a few more bits and now are waiting on the completion date so I can organise my removals.

Im surrounded by boxes in various states and a pile of bin bags as I am clearing out as much as I can before I move. Because when we move I have to clear the house I will be moving into  Now just to organise my Husband accomodation and move in.

Sounds like it won’t be long if deposits have been paid to solicitors. Feeling slightly jealous 😛 x

Im hoping that they move themselves now, I am itching to get in and get it ripped out.

The house is vacant and has been for a while I think so there is no chain.

At this late stage it feels like every day that passes without an update takes another year off my lifespan lol
