Sold 'by possession'
Just when I began to believe that everything was going well and we were nearing completion, I have received a message from our agent along the lines of:
Two rooms will be sold 'by possession' as the succession documents for these 2 rooms have not been presented. They have been in the family for years and years thus qualifying for the legal title 'possession of more than 20 years'.
I'm "assured" (actually I'm far from being assured!) that this is quite usual, nevertheless I'm anxious to ensure that I make the right decisions before ploughing headlong into something I may regret later.
If anyone has had a similar experience or could offer any advice it would be greatly appreciated.
