Thanks Jacqui! Another side note- I think the property has sold so maybe that helped the vendor.... :-)

Hi Everyone, By way of update, it seems the vendor is not proceeding with the purchase. I am out of contract now and only lose my 0.25%. Yay! :D Thanks for everyone's comments and help

Haha thanks for your story Marg! :D My real estate agent acknowledged receipt- and I now have that safely filed away. Interesting side point- up until the end of last week the property listing had "under offer" added... since Monday, this has been removed :confused:

Yep- the soli only tried to contact me after 5. And I was referring to the real estate agent, who isn't mine... But thanks for trying to protect me :-) I guess what I can conclude/ learn from this whole debacle is: 1. Just go ahead with the purchase. Given the property is pretty close to...

Thanks Propertunity. Could the solicitor have assumed that I provided a notice of recission myself or should have they contacted me regardless? I received a recommendation for this solicitor- don't think i'll use them again (but won't name and shame until this whole thing is over- maybe I...

Thanks Alexlee- as I posed in my previous question, can I just proceed with the sale now, or will I be subject to penalties for not providing the deposit and the end of the cooling off period?

Hi Bradsdad- When I say acknowledged, the real estate agent replied to me saying she understood i had pulled out (and offered me several other properties) Update: I am getting mixed stories from each of the parties but apparently the vendor's solicitor is talking about suuing (sp) me? I...

Y-man- Sorry I should have been clearer. Real-estate agent tried to contact me at about 458 Solicitor- around 510

Hi everyone, Thanks for everyones response- really appreciated. I still haven't received a final conclusion. My solicitor believes that because the vendor is covered by three parties, the vendor himself, vendors solicitor and agent, and I let the agent know, and this was accepted that I...

Hi Everyone, My solicitor has gone home for the day and I don't think I will sleep a wink if I can't get some advice on my conundrum!! I had a 10 day cooling off period which ended today at 5pm. Based on the building report, I decided to pull out of the sale. I alerted my real estate...
