OK, so I'm no expert on buying/selling property so I'm confused (and pissed off a little tbh).
So DP has agreed to buy ExW out of their house. This was all agreed 5 months ago with them coming to an agreement about the finances etc. All good.
So he suggested a completion date when it was discussed 5 months ago and she asked for an extra month (so 6 months to get organised and find somewhere else) and DP agreed with no issues.
So we are now 6 weeks before the completion date and she's just told him she's put an offer in on a flat but there is no way it will have all gone through by the arranged completion date. That she still wants the money in her account that day but that she won't be moving out of the house until she has completed on her new flat. This could be 2+ months after the agreed date.
So this means my DP will have to extend his contract on his rental property, will be paying rent and a mortgage all whilst she lives in the house. She's said that she won't be paying any rent (he did mention that the house will legally be his and therefore she will need to pay rent for the time she overstays) and that she will move out when she's ready after she has received the cash and got her new place sorted.
I really needed a rant but also needed u good people of MN to tell me if im BU to be so annoyed. Its set our plans back by God knows how long and financially messed things up for us for those first few months.
How can somebody take the cash then refuse to move out!

AIBU?
Aibu to think that they don't get to stay in the property after completion date?
