Hi,
My solicitor instructed the buyers sol to exchange on or before 25th. Does it happen often that the buyers solicitor, though aware of this on the day, does not contact the sellers solicitor and just signs with the buyer, takes the bankers draft deposit and then goes home for the weekend without exchanging? The buyer did not "allegedly" sign until 4 pm so it was late in the day but sol did not get in touch with my sol. My sol was very angry. My sol rang there sol's office but was told they were short staffed and the person dealing with the case had gone home and senior partner was in a meeting.
Is this a likely senario or do you think there could be a problem?
Cheers
