We have put in an offer on a property which has been accepted. The EA.,
who we have not yet met is a very patronising chap and seems to think that a woman should be baking and cleaning and not dealing with a house purchase. He has now asked for proof that the funds are in hand.
Am I legally obliged to comply with his request?
Having sold a property eighteen months ago we are in the fortunate position of being cash buyers. However, the funds are not in one account
but several so that if the banks/building societies fail we would not lose our funds.
When we sold our house we did not request proof of funds, we believed the buyer.
Am I just angry because of his condescending attitude?
Help!! Any advice and info will be much appreciated.
