Hi.
We sold our house 3 months ago to a cash buyer who then pulled out 7 weeks later (and 10 days before our wedding-aagghh!)
Anyway got ourselves another cash buyer pretty much straight away so got married and went on honeymoon safe in the knowledge that it would all be sorted pretty soon after.
All the finances are in place on both sides-our buyer bought the searches off the buyer who pulled out, and the Memorandum of Sale stated that we both wanted to complete "as soon as legally possible"
I am now sat here in a fully packed up house, with removals firm on red alert and chldren who think we'll be in our new home very very soon (esp as their toys are all packed away The agent has just informed me that she doesn't want to complete for another 2 weeks. I am bloody spitting. She is in rented so could quite easily complete and take her time moving in...the people we're buying off are now getting very pissed off at all the delays.
Apparentley our buyer is "going on holiday" next week.
I could scream I really could.
Have we any comeback??? Can I demand we complete sooner bearing in mind that legally every single last thing is in place??
Any advice greatly appreciated and a gin and tonic wouldn't go amiss.
TIA !!!
