Buyer pulled out…..again

[Snugmummy]

so I posted before about our buyers needing more time to decide- after offering and us accepting.
They left us 10 long days in limbo and then finally came back and said they absolutely definitely want our house- they completely love it and started negotiating for our blinds, curtains , light fittings and gym equipment- they wanted it all!
We then went ahead and offered on our dream house, had our offer accepted and all surveys were completed with absolutely no issues whatsoever.
They then sent an email… a bloody email! To our estate agents on April fools day (feels horribly ironic) to say that, sorry, hope we understand but they’ve decided to buy another house. I’m so gutted - our dream house is now back on the market and so are we.
Please send me positive stories of a successful end to these situations, I’m aware they happen often, but never to us before. I’ve fallen in love with ‘our’ new house but feeling terribly depressed that we may lose it after all.

@Letmecirclebacktoyouonthat so sorry to hear that. It really sucks! We had 2 sets of buyers pull out on us, one was just before exchange! The first time, the chain above us gave us 2 weeks to get under offer again, which we did. Then, when those people pulled out over 2 months later, we went under offer again within 24hours. We’re now waiting and hoping that these buyers don’t pull out. The chain above are getting impatient, but if they put their houses back on market they’d be foolish because the market is terrible right now in our area. We just have low expectations of it actually happening, it’s such a depressing situation to be in, just permanently in limbo.

Yes. It's the uncertainty that's so hard. After a few cycles of this you stop believing anything anyone tells you 😕Good luck anyway, hopefully three will be the charm 😊
