Thanks everyone...
Lucy, the system here is like England. Although a contract has been signed on acceptance of offer, the agreement is terminated if the buyer doesn't come up with the dosh on a agreed date.
I love the Scottish system. Probably the best in the world. Makes sense and everything is done and dusted by 6 weeks. You know where you stand.
A lot of the people I know thinks that it has happened for a reason, but I'm just panicking about things. How are we going to keep up payments on two homes and that on 1 income.
So, I've decided to sell my car - my DH has a pickup in the city. Will have to walk everywhere, which suits me just fine. It'll be a short term solution, but it's got to be done.
Thanks for all your support!
