We had our offer accepted a couple of months ago. The list of questions was sent by our solicitor a month ago to the vendors., and nothing has happened. In our last phone call the estate agents said that the vendors had returned the answers to their solicitors, who had not passed them on. We have now found out, via our solicitors, that the vendors have still not answered the questions.
We've left a message with our estate agent, asking what's going on. But a) why would the ea lie to us about this and b) why would the vendors behave this way? After all, surely they want to sell. If they'd changed their mind, why don't they tell us? What makes it more difficult is that the sellers have said that they will only deal with us through the ea's.
If this wasn't the house of our dreams, we would walk away.
