The logistics of buying property


It seems that I might instead of buying a flat, begin a war. With war, you're in control. The buzz of excitement comes not from anticipating if the 'vendor' will accept your offer. No it comes from a thought that you may at any moment be blasted apart. That kind of extreme high just can't be experienced in the joys of waiting for a contact to be exchanged. You don't need to time your life insurance, contents insurance and most importantly, the removal van delicately for the afternoon. You don't need to wait patiently for the bank to acknowledge that the money from your mortgage lender has transferred across to the vendor.. and then its time to CHARGE, where's the removal van??! Wait, don't switch on the electricity, make a note of the meter reading first..NO not there, over there..'HI! I'm your neighbhour..What's that? Oh ok, I shan't park there again..' What the contract never said that?! ACTUALLY it is starting to sound more like war, perhaps I will buy a flat after all.
