I was skeptical about house buying. I thought it would be easy. We wanted the first house we saw, and had an offer accepted straight away. The house was empty with no chain, and we have the deposit and mortgage arranged.
And still it's taking months, because solicitors are just so slow, and people are just pushing forms about which we've already filled in about 10 times. And they've got my wife's name wrong twice.
Ridiculous. I thought we'd be in it by now!
