We've sold our house the week of Jan 14, and we were advised that we would have a completion date at the end of Feb as everyone in the chain wanted/needed a quick sale. However it is now coming up to the end of March and we've now been told it's going to go though at the end of April, that's because the person at the bottom of the chain has only just today given 4weeks notice on a rented property so will not complete until that time ends. However he has said that if everyone in the chain pays his rent he will complete this week.
Our issue is that we have moved out and our now paying rent and the mortgage, another month doing this will cripple us. Especially as I've been off work due to illness. We are the top of the chain, some of the people in the chain have already said no to paying this guy rent. We have idea what to do its put us in really difficult place, we could pull out of sale and rent the house out but it would only cover costs so if no one in it we would lose out again, however the house is very desirable so really shouldn't have any issues in renting it.
No family to ask for a short term loan.
What on earth should we do?
Aibu in not paying this guys rent and pulling out of the sale which would mean no one in the chain woukd get their house?
