We sold our house in March to what we thought was a cash buyer. Turns out they weren’t quite the quite what they said they were and we’ve ended up in a chain.
The bottom of the chain has messed us around ridiculously with various issues seeming to crop up weekly.
We were due to exchange and complete last Friday and then their funds mysteriously didn’t arrive.
We’ve then been told that they need to take independent legal advice today before the funds will be released and they were hoping to exchange and complete on Wednesday. Heard birthing today.
Meanwhile as our funds were released for our new mortgage on Friday we are now being charged interest on a mortgage for a house we don’t yet own!
To add more stress our existing mortgage payment is due tomorrow and our new mortgage payment is coming out on Friday 😢.
If we don’t complete before Thursday then there’s stamp duty to factor in too.
What will happen if this all collapses which I’ve got a really bad feeling it’s going to?
