You need to stop watching that kettle boil. If you just look the other way, it'll buy/sell itself.

Bodes well :P0 -
I think, no matter what the theory on these matters, when you're buying/selling you really are left in the dark most of the time as to what will go on.
When I sold I didn't know when I'd be exchanging. I wasn't getting any response from my solicitor. Then suddenly I'd exchanged. I'd wanted 2 weeks between exchange/completion. Ended up with just 48 hours. Totally insufficient, especially as my well-laid plans to clear the house unravelled like a stack of dominoes.... glad to be out though.
Good luck in the next week and coming months.0
