Does this mean we definitely have the house? If so I'm assuming that we will be called in to sign the contract. Is it at this point we get the keys? And does anyone know how much of a deposit we will need to pay? Its a 3 bedroom bungalow.
Thanks

Yeah they told us they're not doing viewings but we could go "look in the windows" and it does look to be bare concrete floors and no curtains up, so we are prepared for that!
