After being on edge all day waiting, I don't know what to do with myself now!
Hooray! Congratulations!! All the best for completion today.0 -

So have gone back to them, but hopefully they will turn those around quickly. I can see the light at the end of the tunnel!0

And hopefully you have received that call by now! Are you waiting outside the house, or still in your old house?1 -
Ticking along nicely towards exchange hopefully this week. After a bit of to-ing and fro-ing we have all decided on a completion date....a week later than I would have preferred, but oh well. Now just waiting for our buyer to send his deposit through to his solicitor, and we should then be able to exchange. Fingers crossed....🤞1
