Buying in Maryborough portlaoise ISSUES

06750931

Hi guys

So even though they said they would close next week, my solicitor just got confirmation that they would close next week and then within 30 minutes received another notification that they were advised not to close until the 6th August due to the builders holidays.

So I presume no-one is getting in....more of the same....very stressful and disappointing.

got in to take some pictures today

hi no problem at all , yes the entrance is still closed.

Photo dump from today. Yes the entrance is closed.

By trespassing! I guess it is called. It’s a bit tricky there due to ground being wet and mushy. You have been warned 🤐👍

Does anyone know what this is ? Appears to be an EV charging point but I don’t think this was in the house specifications sheet so wondering if this is a new addition or am I mistaking this to be an EV charging point ?

Hi

This Plug is for jobs outside home for example concrete mixer heavy saw and many more

It's the longest 2 weeks already!!!!!! Yeah it's an ev charging point…wasn't in the initial specifications but then I think they were told it was a requirement.....

Hi everyone

Any good news?

No, I personally haven’t heard anything back from them since I was told we’d likely be in before builders holidays and to drawdown (which we did!) 😂 I’d be lost without this thread.

Counting down the days to the 6th of August.

So you’re saying you did drawdown already and so you’ll perhaps start your mortgage payment soon before even getting the keys ? OML !! Or maybe not if you have deferred payments ?

Yep we had been told to finalise the sale and our solicitor had received the completion letter so they made the request for funds 2 weeks ago.

Hoping we will hear something tomorrow, if not will contact the EA this week.

I think the paving is finished but don’t believe the street lights are fully fitted. I thought they said that needed to be done before getting sign off from the council. Hopefully it’s a quick job

Hi all is signed off by the council before they went as far as I know as my solicitor got that document.

I'm ready to go too, let's hope it won't drag out now again until next week.
