Didn't happen.
Just about to go out this morning and we had a phone call from our vendors estate agents.
Turns out that their purchase, at the top of the chain, has fallen through due to legal issues concerning the land registry entry of the property they wanted to move to. They are now desperately searching for another suitable property.
This has put us back at least another 8 weeks minimum.
So much for moving in by Christmas.
You might have got away with it, had you not mentioned the mushy peas.

The wind will be to the North tomorrow, I'm to the east of you.
I see one little problem...
There are only 3 in the chain - our buyers, us and our vendors.
The vendors were buying an apartment that was a probate sale, so no chain above them.
The problem seems to have been that the land they thought belonged to the property they were buying, wasn't featuring on the land registry search. Thought they were getting a garden and parking spaces only to find that they belong to another property. It just seems lax to me that it has taken this far along the process for this to come to light.
Angry doesn't come anywhere near close to describing how we felt this morning!
Only if they were doing the job and not handing it down to a junior to do the search.
