we got sent our offer in the post more or less straight away after our MA told us the news (maybe 1 day later). We then signed and returned it. Other than that, our MA says we are good to go and leeds are just awaiting our solicitors instruction to release funds, whcih takes 5 working daysHalliday1984 said:Is anybody waiting for post offer correspondence, if so how long has it taken

Yeah we had everything done before we got the offer. But now we are waiting on the sellers mortgage, so the wait never ends haha. My Jobs ok I havent been furloughed, but my partner did back in the first lockdown, but we haven't heard anything from leeds yet in terms of requesting further info so fingers crossed were ok. I think once you have the offer you're pretty safe? But our MA did say that until you exchange, they do reserve the right to change the offer/ request further infosofsar said:

I’m waiting on the top chain too, his waiting on searches. In my area searches take a week. my Soliciator receptionist is isolating so no one is answering the phone so emails only. Hope we all can get through this bizarre situationtoby993_2 said:
