Exchange torture

Ok that may be a bit over the top but it comes close to torture when our chain is waiting on the Ftbs at the start to exchange!I

It was supposed to be last week but at first they dithered on agreeing a completion date then just disappeared along with contact from their solicitor, most stressful time. I was thinking they'd changed their minds but luckily we found out yesterday it was something to do with the mortgage and they can now compete monday.
I really hope they can!.....we'd be devastated if we lost our house, it's literally a one off and lucky find.

Keep everything crossed for us please!
p.s never moving again! Haha

I feel your pain. We were meant to be exchanging today to complete on Friday. Not heard anything 😢This system is crazy: I booked Thursday and Friday off today but it might not even happen. How can something so big be left to the last minute like this? It's mind boggling!

When are you meant to be completing?

How did you get on dicky? We finally exchanged Thursday and are completing next Thursday, such a relief! Frantically packing now but loving it Smile
