We're in Scotland, and we've seen a property we'd like to view but when I phoned 3 weeks ago I was told it was sold and they were just waiting for the deal to clear. "Hey ho, it's always the way", I thought.
Last week my husband phoned because it was still available according to their website and was told the same thing. We've both separately filled in the form requesting information and had nothing back from them.
They do stick up the 'Under Offer' flag on other properties on their website, so I'm confused as to why they haven't on this one. Does it really take 3 weeks to complete an offer ? And why haven't they flagged it up on their website?
I know I'm probably being all 'conspiracy plot' and stupid but the place looks superficially perfect for us and I'd at least like to look at it in person.
I'd really like someone to tell me 3 weeks is standard and it's very common to keep a property on sale but not let anyone who asks about it, see it!
