Hi,
Went Sale Agreed on a house about 2 months ago. Great. Transpired after paying booking deposit that probate wasn't granted and not even applied for. We've no real rush to get in so said this isn't a problem. Now that we've our loan offer sorted and we're about to sign contracts, I asked the estate agent could we view the house again. It'll be a while until we close so we would like to put together plans for renovations etc... We got a point blank no, and quite rudely. They say we can only view one week before we close.
Solicitor tells me this isn't normal, and she closed on a house last week where the new owners had seen it 4 or 5 times. Chap beside me in work is at about the same stage in buying a house and has viewed 4 times also, twice with a builder.
Can anyone advise if a viewing while waiting to close is out of the question?
Thanks
