Half expecting this.
Made an offer on a house, raised it a little on the agreement that the vendor would move out on an agreed completion date.The vendor said she would move in until the purchase of her property completed with family so no problem.
Three weeks before we complete and prior to exchange just had a message saying they cannot complete until a couple of weeks due to their vendor.
What the heck! Really cross as they are trying to go back on their agreement as my purchase was never supposed to be dependent on their own, as in no chain as such. This is the reason I increased my offer? I have just reminded their estate agent of this.
I am in temporary accommodation as I completed on my own sale a few months ago and my belongings are in storage. It needs to be on the date we agreed as I have to vacate where I am staying and have nowhere to go unless I go in to a hotel or sofa surf. Hoping they come back and say that the will now accept the first offer I made since they cannot honour our agreement before I need to state the obvious.
