We are trying to buy a house with no chain on either side. The seller doesn't live in the house and lives somewhere new! We have to exchange and complete on the same day because there's a tiny chance our bank will do another credit check before we actually ask for the mortgage money, and I know our credit score might be a bit different.
DH applied for a loan in between getting the mortgage agreed and now. We haven't taken out a loan but did apply for one. I can see the loan company searches on his experian credit file, so worried now.
We want to exchange and complete on the same day just in case the bank does another credit check and decides not to give us the money, then we don't lose our 10% deposit because the conveyancer already has the money from the bank so we know it's there before actually signing anything.
The seller is dead set against this. I don't know why though, it's not going to take any longer this way around. Why could it be he's digging his heels in about this?
