Like all transactions you set off in the hope that not too many obstacles will present themselves, but a projectory date can never be cast in stone because they often do. Unfortunately the buyer has failed to inform the reader that a mortgage valuation wasn't carried out til the 10/7 and that up until yesterday (the proposed completion date), they were still not ready to exchange because their buyers solicitor's were still awaiting outstanding enqueries.
When my clients agreed to the 31/7, they presumed a reasonable gap between exchange and completion would suffice, because this wasn't going to happen, on the 22/7 they requested that the completion date be pushed back til at least the 21/8. Although this news was greeted on the same day as absurd by the buyer, 1. the buyer were never lied to as implicated, 2. exchange dates were never pinned down because the plan as always is to 'just exchange' as soon as everyones ready and 3. the owners turned down the buyer's request to speak directly, because they wanted to keep it professional.
As for 4. entering into contact with their buyer and their buyer's lawyer, well this is just nonsense, I have no number for their buyer and don't even know who their buyer's solicitors are and even if I did, it's unethical to call them. What I did do, which any agent worth their salt would do, is call the agents below me in the chain to discuss any events that could have a serious/partly serious implication, weirdly this is considered to be some kind of unprofessional act, well i've been doing the same thing for 29 years and strangely this is the first complaint.
I know as an industry we receive a bad press, some of it deserved, but certainly in this case the allegations directed at me are unfounded.
If anybody reading this wanted to question me on any point, please don't hesitate in calling me.
