  • We saw a few more houses on Saturday, put an offer at asking on one of them and just had it accepted. So much nicer dealing with a small estate agency, my partner called up today and dispite not speaking to her before and she remembered our names and situation.

  • Congrats!

    We just exchanged today - after all manner of fuckery from our seller, holding up exchange for the best part of two weeks, then coming out today moaning that completion wasn’t soon enough and threatening to put the house back on the market if exchange didn’t happen that day. (After both us and our buyer having been ready to exchange since the start of the month.)
    Got the classic “our client has instructed us to say….” email from the other parties solicitors, so think even they were sick of it by the end.

    Was so much nicer going through the process having done it once already, and knowing we were already in a place we like, so just telling him roundly to get back in his box and do the needful if he wanted to complete.

    Shoutout our first time buyer as well who has had the patience of a saint despite getting nervy towards the end.
