...... The house sale has collapsed. The buyers have pulled out. No reasons given. Our agent told me this morning that they weren't answering the agents calls or replying to the agents emails. So I emailed them and asked them nicely to let me know. They emailed the agents. Bit spineless, and a waste of twelve weeks of everyones time.
The agents have put ithe house back on the market at £10,000 less. Couple that with a bill for all her wasted time from our solicitor and the very real prospect that the homes my ex and I have found may go back on the market and we lose them. Well it's not been a good day.
The agents don't get paid unless we sell. So they've got the house back on the market. They have a booking for tomorrow evening and are arranging another open day for this coming Saturday. We'll need to unpack a few books, move the wall of boxes that has been building up in the conservatory and make sure the house is at it's best.
I stayed pretty positive yesterday but didn't sleep much last night and woke up pretty dejected this morning. However I'm a much changed person than when I started this blog a couple of years ago. So there is no point in being dejected. CG wouldn't and he was the kick that got me moving in the first place.
Happily Fulham won last night. I listened to the game online. they were pretty dreadful for the first half hour but got there game going and came from behind to snatch a victory which was a plus and it's a positive note to end todays post :-)
Onwards and upwards in pursuit of fulfilment :-)

Oh no!! I'm sorry to hear that, Spanner. Is it crap to say that I think these things happen for a reason? I think the next buyers will fall in love with the property, offering a further ten grand purely because they feel the need to give a gift to the kind souls who allowed them to live in such a perfect abode. There. That's a pretty story, isn't it? The sort of story I construct when shitty things happen.
ReplyDeleteI hope it works out. Sorry for the setback. Dammit.
ReplyDeleteThank you both for the comments. Like most things in life, in six months time it won't seem as big a thing as it is now :-)))
