    House sale disaster - advice please

    A colleague at work is selling as part of a chain. He moved into rented accom 8 weeks ago and found out last week that the guy he is selling to is an 'investor'.
    This guy was supposed to complete two weeks ago but has come up with a catalogue of excuses, ankle injury, out of the country, etc etc

    I told my colleague that the alarm bells started with me when the word investor was mentioned but that doesnt give any practical help. Any ideas? (legal and non violent please)

    :rolleyes

    Eternal,

    just stop the renting contract and move back into your house

    what's the big deal ?

    next time, arm yourself with cash and you won't be at the mercy of the noddies in a chain
