Don't even get me going on the lawyers!


As we near the end of the month the excitement mounts to see if we will beat our targets. The big one in question is the exchange target, where we, along with the rest of the industry are being hampered by poorly run lenders who are causing many delays and where apparent incompetence is now bordering negligence on their part. It's no joke when perfectly organised people do and supply everything asked of them and everything is in order and completed quickly, then have to wait weeks for a lender to look at something and then ask for something else and then take more weeks to look at it and then ask for something else again which could all have been asked for in the first place. Once this has gone on for a couple of months or three everyone loses the will to live and somebody pulls out of a sale where both the buyer and seller were, as they used to say, very ready, willing and able. That’s just one part of the story, don't even get me going on the lawyers.

The rest of our targets all look like they have been achieved already so I will wait until Monday to see if we can celebrate a great success or not.
