We accepted an offer on our house three weeks ago and had our offer accepted on the house we are buying a week ago so its all fairly recent but am still getting impatient!
How long do these things tend to take? Our solicitor seems to be speeding on with our sale (have had draft contract to sign already) but last time we spoke to our estate agent, our buyers hadn't finished their mortgage application so no survey has been done etc.
We are loath to pay out £900 on the survey for the house we are buying until have seen some progress from our buyer - but don't want to annoy our estate agent by phoning for updates too often and becoming a nuisance . Our mortgage application is all ready to go as soon as we get the word.
What length of time is reasonable to wait between hassling our agent?
Am moving 100miles so got lots to sort out before we move so would like to know roughly when to expect things to happen...
