Not sure what to do about this. We are hopefully near the end of the process in a very drawn-out purchase of our first house (we put an offer in over a year ago...) Due to a problem with the leasehold parking space, it has taken a long time to sort out. We're now renting this house from the vendor until the purchase goes through. In the meantime, we've had a baby DD.
We received a deed of covenant through the post to sign a couple of weeks ago, and haven't been sure what to do about it as it requires witnessing. I don't want to break the lockdown and would rather wait until it's lifted to ask anyone to sign it. I don't want to put anyone at risk (I believe I've already had coronavirus some weeks ago but obviously cannot be certain).
DH wants us to ask the neighbours, which I don't feel comfortable with. We know them to say hi to but that's it, and they have children too. Obviously, we don't know who else they've been in contact with.
What should we do? The vendors/landlords are putting pressure on us to sign this document. I believe it can wait but am not sure how to approach this. Advice welcome 😊
