    Today is the day for exchange and completion on our sale and purchase. We were asked for authority to exchange at 8am, and haven't heard anything else since. I'm feeling very nervous. Van is all packed and waiting!
    So exciting, hope you hear something soon 🤞x

    So I think I said the other day, our sale is now 'ready'. Both my solicitor and the EA's progression team have chased our onward purchaser's solicitor as we sent enquires rough 10 days ago now and are waiting on a response. I think the EA's progression team just fires off an e-mail and hopes for the best. Any ideas anyone??
    Question for you ? Are you using FHTB ?

    The lender has offered to appeal the new valuation as the price hasn't hiked that much, which takes 5 days. So I have until then to decide what to do. :s Too early for a gin and tonic?

    Thanks guys. Sounds like all were waiting on now is for our purchasers solicitors to release the funds.

    No, we used it on our first purchase though.
