Hi all,
The offer I made was accepted today. However I did not see any hard evidence of another buyer exsisting.
mmm...
Took the straw man advice on board, thanks wish-ga.
Noted your panic offer lizzie, Did not want to go there. Cheers.
JamesGG, "So, nothing overly sinister, it would seem..." Maybe not overly sinister but disquieting all the same. Having allways sold privately, I carry a sense of cronic unease everytime I buy from a RE agent. I basically distrust Real Estate Agents. I would prefer to deal with the vendor.
LeapYeah - "It can be a good idea to get the form counter-signed by the vendor -" Excellent Idea, didn't think of that. Thanks.
and thank you all for your ideas.
