    Authority to exchange finally received from HTB solicitors are checking it over etc tomorrow and hopefully will have the bill etc for our deposit for us to pay over! 🤞🤞🤞🤞
    Hope you don’t mind me asking but my solicitor has been aweful.  Apparently they posted out our contract today.  When do you get the authority to exchange, before or after that? 
    Depends which contract it is sweet! We signed a load of contracts prior to mortgage offer being received our solicitors we’re a little proactive! Have they sent you the mortgage report? I can find everything we signed and at what dates later so I’ll repost with what we signed and when! By the sounds of it it’ll be afterwards you’d of had a very happy phone call from solicitors if you had your ATE Xx

    Our solicitor has been absolutely shocking.  We have no idea what is going on.  Got a an email today saying contracts were sent to us today with site notes to follow so god knows what they mean 🤷‍♀️.  I’m getting more stressed now then I was getting the mortgage offer

    Exciting!! Bluestone have come back with a few questions for me one of them being why my middle name is on my self assessment but not on my passport!! They would need to ask her majesty! Lol My middle name is on my birth certificate which is used to obtain the passport so only god knows why it’s not on there. I’m wondering how long after they have the answers will it take for an offer…
