  • Sales agreed (over asking price after 22 peoples starting to throw in their offer), mortgage sorted, just chasing up the paperwork hopefully before end of June otherwise we're fucked with the stamp duty!

    @spindrift and the shed gonna go and the garden converted into allotment, apparently the back of the garden used to be a steam tractor factory.

  • Congrats Ed! Really hope you get sorted before the end of the SDLT holiday. However, there'd have to be someone properly watching over you for it to go from sale agreed to completed within a month. Not that it's impossible, and I'm not sure if you know something more about the whole situation that says it will be done. But especially with leasehold places, the amount of queries that need to be raised/answered by your solicitor could very likely mean it takes a few months.

    Like I said, I really hope it doesn't, I just also hope you have the contingency to pay the SDLT should it run over as there's no real way you can force it to happen faster.

    TBF it been 4 weeks so far and yeah insofar I’m expecting it to drag on for the next 6 months!

    Finger crossed!

    We started the process mid Jan hoping for the first one... We're still not done. 😭
