We've exchanged (yay!). I'm now stressing about what happens if one of us dies between exchange and completion - would we lose the deposit?
I'm wondering this because presumably the mortgage company would withdraw their offer, as neither of us could pay the mortgage alone. But presumably we'd still be required to complete on the date specified, or lose the deposit.
Would it therefore be advisable to get life insurance just for these few weeks, to avoid the risk of losing the deposit?
We weren't planning to get it otherwise, as once we've completed, if one of wasn't around we'd just sell the house.
