Hello, long story but I am trying to buy a house and the vendor is obstructing the sale...
His ex partner has already got an Order of Sale on the property via the court some time ago which forces the sale (there are a number of debts charged against the property). The vendor accepted our offer back in August but still hasn't instructed his solicitors to start the legal process and is being evasive with the estate agents. We have a cash buyer for our house and now we need to get the process going or we will lose our buyer. It looks like the ex will have to enforce the court Order - the court can apparently take over the sale of the property but I have no idea about the process.
Does anyone have experience of how long this takes?
I'm grateful for any information.
