How long would you wait for buyers to have survey booked in? 8 August at 6:08PM in Surveys 3 replies 100 views

Hi

I accepted an offer on my house exactly four weeks ago, since then no valuation has been booked in for my house.

Every time I speak to the EA they say the buyers are still sorting out their mortgage, I have had an offer accepted on a new house (with mortgage offer issued within a week).

Just wondering how long you would wait before putting a house back on the market?

Thank you

Is the right board for your question.

As above, house buying board will get more responses, but if it were me, I'd set a deadline (7 days or whatever) then ask them to remarket. Surveys/mortgages shouldn't take more than a couple of weeks to arrange unless there's an unusual situation.

Thank you both!
