Cash buyer. Survey done. What next?

cash purchase is no different to mortgage, except the buyer doesn't have to apply for a mortgage.

I'm a cash buyer choccy1972, and I had my full structural survey last Tuesday.  The surveyor emailed me to say no problems, so I emailed my EA to say I was happy to proceed without further investigation ie no price negotiations.  I have no intention of gazundering at exchange.  I asked my solicitor for an update and he said he's waiting for the contracts and to ask my EA to chase - they've emailed this morning to say they are contacting the vendor's solicitor as well as the vendor.  It's been six weeks since my offer was accepted. I've also bought a book on house buying from Amazon as I'm in the dark about the purchase process, it is sometimes available at the library, 'House Buying for Dummies'.

 I am sorry you are in debt, I spent twelve years digging myself out of it, and still remember the taste of my curry powder and water 'soup',  wishing you the best of luck.

Thanks for your reply and the luck. Hope all goes well for you too!!
