Barnio

So we decided to bite the bullet , to stop feeling so lost and to buy a house. We fell in love with a beautiful barn conversion in Brockhill that was lovely and had a nice proce tag (that we could afford) We made offers, battled it out, gave our final offer and it was accepted..... on one condition... we use their solicitors and noone elses. Now obviously it is not a good idea to have the same solicitor when buying a house; it's a conflict of interest. So we said we'd rather use our own thanks. They replied you use the same one as us or we'll choose the next best offer! They wouldn't give us the weekend to think about it and they wouldn't talk to our solicitors in order to work out any issues. So we had to pull out.
GUTTED is not the word.
Yet another set back for no apparant reason......
