Hi all
As you might gather from my username - I'm in the beginning of the big M so totally understand I maybe being unreasonable. Offer accepted on my house yay.
Made an offer in or around 1st October for out hopefully to be "house" which was accepted on the spot double yay. Both my onward purchase and my house marked as sold, swapped solicitors and I was told my vendor is very motivated to sell.
The problem is - i have checked with my solicitor and EA from vendor - and it seems that as of today - the house we are buying their solicitors have done nothing (other than memorandum of sale), mine have been chasing them daily and radio silence . For my property I have done fixtures and fittings document for the sale of my house, got Mortage approved and they seem to be on go slow. I spoke to my solicitor and they have advised they cant any surveys until they hear from our onward purchase, even the sellers EA sounded concerned about radio silence.
I haven't heard if the couple have found an onwards purchase and as of last week were "looking" but now it seems to have gone - dead silent.
Am I going completely mad to think that this is unreasonable. I don't mind waiting but I'm also getting the deep vibe of "not very motivated" due to lack of communication.
I'm quite happy to be told I'm being unreasonable and actually would find it rather comforting. We wouldn't have offered on this house if we were going to be dragged around for months in limbo with no communication while someone makes up their mind and the EA was quite certain they were a motivated seller. Unless obviously their solicitor is shit but EA says they are usually pretty good.
Advice welcome. One very hot and grumpy women.
